架构师提供的文本描述。我们被赋予了一种简短、最年轻、最有抱负的梦想：在一个可以俯瞰大海的美妙位置上设计一座当代的房子。这里的转折是，房子必须是高度无障碍的，同时避免了“机构化”的感觉，即许多活动能力受损的人的家偶尔会受到伤害。

Text description provided by the architects. We were given the kind of brief most young aspiring practices dream of: to design a contemporary house in a wonderful location overlooking the sea. The twist here was that the house had to be highly accessible whilst avoiding the ‘institutionalised’ feel that many homes for people with impaired mobility occasionally suffer from.

这个网站给我们带来了一些挑战。首先，它被设置在两个传统的，低矮的茅草屋之间，被认为是具有建筑意义的。第二，只有在一楼才能看到海景；第三，前面，地块较少私人的一面朝南，这意味着道路和前面的花园之间会发生冲突。

The site presented us with a few challenges. First of all, it was set between 2 traditional, low lying thatched cottages identified as being of architectural significance. Secondly, the views out to sea were only achievable at first floor level, and thirdly, the front, less-private side to the plot faced south meaning there would be a conflict between the road and the proposed garden that would front onto it.

我们提出了四种联锁形式的概念，可以提供所需的住宿条件，同时尊重村舍两侧的规模及其对村庄的看法。我们在一楼提出了一种长线木覆盖形式，设置在下面的轻玻璃部分之上。一边是白色的侧翼，尽头是一个突出的车库，以创造一个欢迎的入口庭院。该作品被一个双层入口大厅“锚定”，它的外部覆盖着深灰色的锌。

We developed a concept of 4 interlocking forms that would give the accommodation required, whilst respecting the scale of the cottages either side and the views they provided to the village. We proposed a long linear timber clad form at first floor, set above a light weight glazed section below, and a white rendered wing to the side with a projecting garage at the end to create a welcoming entrance courtyard. The composition is ‘anchored’ to the site by a double height entrance hall that is clad on the outside in dark grey zinc.

墙壁是高度绝缘和密封，以创造一个高效的上层建筑。空气源热泵提供供暖和热水，整个房子的机械通风和热回收系统回收厨房和浴室的热量，在冬季提供温暖的新鲜空气。

The walls were heavily insulated and sealed to create a highly efficient super structure. An air source heat pump provides the heating and hot water and a mechanical ventilation and heat recovery system throughout the house recovers the heat from the kitchen and bathrooms to provide warm fresh air in the winter months.

广阔的玻璃区域不断提醒人们，在这个暴露的地方，天气发生了戏剧性的变化：早晨，斑驳的阳光穿透树木，进入厨房；白天，雨点洒在餐厅上方的大屋顶灯上；黄昏时分，太阳落在海面上，西面的大窗框捕捉到了一道橙色的光辉，充满了生活区。

The extensive areas of glazing give a constant reminder of the dramatic and ever changing weather in this exposed location: the dappled sunlight breaks through the trees into the kitchen in the morning; the rain showers down on the large rooflights over the dining area during the day; and the sun sets over the sea in the evening, filling the living area with an orange glow captured by the large framed window to the west.
