架构师提供的文本描述。最初作为牧场风格的房子建造于1962年，改造后的Y屋被精心设计成编织在奥斯汀南部舍伍德橡树社区的织物，同时提供了一种新鲜和现代的生活方式。由建筑师-客户设想作为一种投资财产，改造和增加的房子提供了业主的生活和工作空间，以及他们的建筑实践的设计价值的反映。

Text description provided by the architects. Originally built as a ranch-style house in 1962, the remodeled Y House is sensitively designed to weave into the fabric of the Sherwood Oaks neighborhood in South Austin while simultaneously providing a fresh and modern way of living. Conceived by the architect-clients as an investment property, the remodel and addition to the house provide both living and working space for the owners, as well as a reflection of the design values of their architectural practice.

项目的附加部分将中心的矩形分割成一个Y形，在房子的私人端创建一个Y形。这种分割允许主卧室有隐私和与其他卧室的分离，无论是物理上还是视觉上。这种分裂还在曾经是死胡同的走廊的尽头创建了一个庭院，为一个典型的平淡空间带来了光明、景观和更多的兴趣。

The addition portion of the project splits the rectangle at the center to create a Y shape at the private end of the house. This split allows for the master bedroom to have privacy and separation from the other bedrooms, both physically and visually. The split also creates a courtyard at the end of what was once a dead-end corridor, bringing light, views and an added level of interest to a typically mundane space.

 Floor Plan

在房子的主要起居区，以前分隔的房间已经开放，以创造一个开放的概念平面图。餐厅的后墙可以完全打开后廊，将居住空间扩展到户外，以利用德克萨斯州温暖的天气。这一设计还允许交叉通风的空气从房子的正面到后面，并创造了一个强有力的视觉连接，从房子内的所有空间的外部。

In the main living area of the house, the previously compartmentalized rooms have been opened up to create an open concept floor plan. The back wall of the dining room can be completely opened up to the back porch, extending the living space to the outdoors to take advantage of the warm Texas weather. This design also allows for cross-ventilation of air from the front of the house to the back, and creates a strong visual connection to the outside from all spaces within the house.

后门廊是室内居住空间的延伸，贯穿整个房子的后部，从餐厅、客房和主卧室进入。门廊天篷采用天然天篷的大型现有绉桃树，以提供遮荫和保护免受德克萨斯阳光。

The back porch is an extension of the indoor living space, running the entire length of the back of the house with access from the dining room, guest room, and master bedroom. The porch canopy incorporates the natural canopy of the large existing crepe myrtle tree to provide shade and protection from the Texas sun.

这所房子的车库已经变成了业主建筑实践的办公室。这为他们提供了与客户见面的空间，也提供了进入他们家的机会，以此作为他们在设计实践中所做的专业工作的一个活生生的例子。这所房子使用了几种被回收的材料，包括一个长凳和前门廊格子，它是由原来的木桩建造而成的。这所房子还通过充足的窗户和天窗使用充足的采光空间来减少电力负荷。

The garage of the house has been transformed into an office for the architectural practice of the owners. This provides them with a space to meet with clients, as well as access to their home as a living example of what they do professionally through their design practice. The home uses several re-claimed materials, including a bench and front porch trellis constructed from the wood studs of the original home.  The house also uses abundant daylighting of the spaces through ample windows and skylights to reduce the electrical load.
