架构师提供的文本描述。太阳雨房是格鲁吉亚二级联排别墅的两层延伸和修复。通过放大建筑物内部的结构特征，对建筑物的后部进行重新调整。由刘京建与当地工匠合作设计建造，既是实习工作室，又是合作伙伴家庭的家。后院的周边墙支持一个胶合板屋顶，弯曲的平面和部分，以允许最大限度的光线进入庭院花园。

Text description provided by the architects. The Sun Rain Rooms is a two-storey extension and restoration of a Grade-II Listed Georgian townhouse. The extension re-frames the rear of the building by amplifying the characteristics found within its fabric. Designed and constructed by Tonkin Liu in collaboration with local craftspeople, it serves as both a studio for the practice and a home for the partners’ family. The perimeter walls of the rear courtyard support a plywood roof, curved in plan and section to allow maximum light into a patio garden.

从屋顶弯弯曲曲的前缘到一个长长的雨水收集池上方，收集到的雨水通过一条管道流下来。只要按下按钮，水箱就会把露台淹没，把它变成一个反射池。屋顶的110毫米薄结构外壳是一个绝缘的应力皮肤，与圆形围护天窗相呼应雨滴降落在游泳池。在糟糕的一天，这是个好地方。这一扩展包含了家庭仪式和演播室仪式的平淡和诗意两方面。在屋檐下，花园房为家庭提供了生活空间，为工作室提供了会议空间。

Rainwater gathered at the top of the townhouse falls through a pipe, following the roof’s curving leading edge to a spout over a long rainwater harvesting tank. The tank floods the patio at the push of a button, transforming it into a reflecting pool. The roof’s thin 110mm structural shell is an insulated stressed-skin, joined by round coffered skylights that echo the wave pattern of raindrops landing in the pool. It is a good place to be on a bad day. The extension accommodates both prosaic and poetic aspects of domestic and studio rituals. Under the roof, a garden room offers a living space for the home and a meeting space for the studio.

在覆盖的户外区域的一面镜子墙，隐藏着一个车间，烹饪区，盆栽棚，商店，和深植在绿色屋顶上的小树。在露台下面，现有的地下室已经扩建，以创建一个卧室，两个浴室和一个扩大的植物填充光井。在阳光和雨水的推动下，这片延伸的风景庇护着一家精心挑选的标本植物。绿色的屋顶，花园的房间，倒映的游泳池和凹陷的光井形成了一个多层次的城市花园，既庆祝和使人们更接近自然。

A mirrored wall in the covered outdoor area beyond conceals a workshop, cooking area, potting shed, store, and deep planter for the small trees in the green roof above. Below the patio, the existing basement has been extended to create a bedroom, two bathrooms and an enlarged plant-filled light-well. Animated by the sun and the rain, the extension a landscape that harbours a family of carefully selected specimen plants. The green roof, garden room, reflecting pool and sunken light-well form a multi-layered urban garden, both celebrating and bringing people closer to nature.
