架构师提供的文本描述。希顿大道(Heaton Avenue)的埃尔伍德屋(Elwood House)坐落在一处林立的街道景观中，其中既有当代建筑，也有传统建筑，议会遗产覆盖层-以加州为主体的平房，有红砖幕墙和赤塔瓦瓦屋顶，从街道向后，有正式的花园和木材栅栏。在装修之前，埃尔伍德豪斯是一个疲惫的，100年前的例子，这些人的身体状况很差，但骨骼却完好无损。这位重视这座建筑历史和风格的客户希望投资于它的保留和修复。拉奇·安德森(Lachie Anderson)景观设计的立面砖、新鹅卵石车道、修复木栅栏和正式几何前花园等细节，加强了这条街道的遗产结构。

Text description provided by the architects. Elwood House of Heaton Avenue sits within a tree-lined streetscape that comprises a mix of contemporary and heritage buildings within a council heritage overlay - predominantly Californian bungalows with red brick façades and terracotta tiled roofs, set back from the street with formal gardens and timber fences. Prior to renovation, Elwood House was a tired, 100-year-old example of these in poor condition but with bones intact. The client, who valued the history and style of the building wanted to invest in its retention and restoration. Details such as tuckpointing of façade brickwork, new cobbled bluestone driveway, reinstated timber fence and formal geometric front garden designed by Lachie Anderson Landscapes has strengthened the heritage fabric of the street.

拆除后狭窄的部分的房子，允许一个新的延伸开放和更好地利用北面方面的后花园。新的底层附加住房，厨房和生活空间是并列与原来的房子作为一个流线型的盒子，地板到天花板的玻璃，铝门窗，石灰石瓷砖地板和大理石细节。透明的盒子吸收自然的南北光线，利用现有水池的反射，在内部空间进一步反射光线。它是一个明亮，宽敞的中心，供聚会、分享和享受与花园、烧烤和游泳池的连接。新旧之间的交界处是明显的，但却是流动的。一条中央的脊柱走廊将建筑物的两部分连接起来，墙壁从前向后延伸成一条连续的直线，形成了一个长长的框架景观。

The demolition of the cramped rear section of the house allowed for a new extension to open-up and take better advantage of the north-facing aspect back-garden. The new ground floor addition housing kitchen and living space is juxtaposed with the original house as a streamlined box with floor-to-ceiling glazing, aluminium doors and windows, limestone tiled floor and marble detailing. The transparent box soaks up the natural northern and western light and utilises reflection from the existing pool to further bounce light around the internal space. It is a bright, spacious centre for gathering, sharing and enjoying the connection to the garden, barbeque and pool. The junction between old and new is distinct but fluid. A central spinal hallway links the two halves of the building with walls extending from front to back in a continuous line, creating a long, framed vista.

新的一楼附加住房儿童的卧室，区别于更透明的底层作为一个坚实的整体盒子。虽然坚固，非白色的粗糙渲染的盒子似乎漂浮在建筑物的下方，并上升和消失在天空。它是抵消和悬垂的底层围护，提供以下阴影和减缓整体质量的大部分。斑纹口香糖元素贯穿整个建筑，将两个不同的层次结合在一起。在底层，新的窗户是用木结构，指的是其他地方的正式遗产。在新扩建的外墙上使用木屏风，使坚固的箱体相对于传统外墙软化。

The new first floor addition housing the children’s bedrooms distinguishes itself from the more transparent ground floor as a solid monolithic box. Although solid, the off-white rough-cast rendered box seems to float above the building below and to rise and disappear into the sky. It is offset from and overhanging the ground floor envelope, providing shading below and moderating the bulk of the overall mass. Spotted gum elements feature throughout the building uniting the two different levels. On the ground floor, new windows are framed with timber, referencing the formal heritage detailing elsewhere. Timber screens are used on the façade of the new extension, softening the robust box against the heritage façade.

内部装饰和细木工设计与菲奥娜林奇。选择触觉材料，光泽的饰面，丰富的色彩和圆滑的细节补充了建筑形式，并增加了另一层设计完整的房子。客户广泛的艺术收藏与空间的设计，以最佳的表现工作范围，进一步增强了建筑的特色。

Interior finishes and joinery were designed with Fiona Lynch. The selection of tactile materials, lustrous finishes, rich colours and sleek detailing complement the architectural forms and add another layer of design integrity to the house. The clients’ extensive art collection was accommodated with spaces designed to best present the range of work, further enhancing the building’s character.

埃尔伍德之家提供了现代家庭所需的多维度和灵活性，反映在不同时代的各种建筑风格和材料中，这些建筑风格和材料被成功地整合为一个优雅、现代的家。它尊重它的邻居和街景；它并不突出在街道的前面该项目的各个阶段都考虑了能源利用、太阳能利用、热性能、通风和水敏感性，目的是实现自给自足，并与周围的景观保持和谐的关系。尽管其优雅的设计资质，房子仍然主要是一个年轻的家庭的家，加入其他父母和孩子在当地的日常生活。

Elwood House provides the multi-dimensionality and flexibility needed for a modern family which is reflected in a range of architectural styles and materials from different eras that have been successfully integrated as an elegant, contemporary home. The extension is respectful of its neighbours and the streetscape; it is not prominent from the street front - there are only glimpses of a modern box behind, modestly set back from its neighbouring buildings. Energy use, solar access, thermal performance, ventilation and water-sensitivity have been considered at all stages of the project to create a house that aims for self-sufficiency and a harmonious relationship with its surrounding landscape. Despite its elegant design credentials, the house is still primarily a home for a young family; joining the daily life of the other parents and children in the local neighbourhood.
