架构师提供的文本描述。2009年，我们受命设计看守人的房子。由于组织上的变化，该项目当时没有进行。当堡垒的改建工程在2015年再次启动时，我们对这座房子的计划似乎并没有被遗忘。我们被要求恢复原来的计划并进一步发展。

Text description provided by the architects. We were commissioned to design the fort keeper’s house back in 2009. Due to organisational changes, the project did not go ahead at the time. When the conversion of the fort was activated again in 2015, it seemed that our plan for the house had not been forgotten. We were asked to revive the original plans and develop them further.

新建造的堡垒管理员的住宅源于一位经理必须住在那里的要求。此函数与原始函数相同。因此，我们的任务是实现一个新的堡垒管理员的住所，为一个有新目的堡垒。这座新房子必须适应我们时代的需要。2009年的第一次设计灵感来自城堡、周围环境和使用现代、合适的建筑方法的愿望。

The new-build fort keeper’s residence stems from the requirement that a manager lives there. This function is identical to the original one. So we were given the task of realising a new fort keeper’s residence for a fort with a new purpose. The new house had to be adapted to the requirements of our time. The first design in 2009 was inspired by the fort, the surroundings and the desire to use a contemporary, fitting construction method.

大量的梁构成了设计的起点。原来的堡垒管理员的住宅是用木头建造的。通过务实地将梁与薄板材料相结合，我们得以建造一个“新”堡垒管理员住所。这些横梁是用螺母和螺栓拧在一起的，就像建筑一样，并且使用了薄板材料，可以与军方建造预制房屋的方式相适应。

A huge batch of beams formed the starting point for the design. The original fort keeper’s residence was made out of wood. By pragmatically incorporating the beams combined with sheet material, we were able to make a “new” fort keeper’s residence. The beams, that are screwed together with nuts and bolts like a construction and finished using sheet material, could fit in with the way in which the military constructs a prefab home.

我们一直致力于发展这一建设理念，并调整它，以适应现代(生活)的要求。设计不断调整，以使其尽可能接近最初的计划和目标。

We have been working on developing this construction concept and adjusting it to suit modern (living) requirements. The design was constantly adjusted in order to bring it as close as possible to the original plan and objectives.

其结果是，现在的房子是由梁和面板，大小和比例的木制(堡垒管理员)住宅。颜色和材料的选择，以适应环境的特点和施工方法。在建筑方法和外观上，这座房子的特点既是现代的，又是古典的。

The result is now a house made from beams and panels, with the size and proportions of a wooden (fort keeper’s) residence. The colours and materials have been chosen to suit the character and the construction method of the surroundings. The character of the house is modern and classical at the same time, both in construction method and appearance.
