架构师提供的文本描述。这是我们最喜欢的房子之一。它包含了我们建设小型和高效的理想。这也是我们早期的原型项目之一，以测试对未来打样的想法。它最初是一个紧凑的两层半楼，1625平方英尺的中间连接的房子，我们把它加进了4层楼(半地下室和主卧室阁楼)，里面有一个绿色的庭院。它现在有一个大约2400平方英尺的最终建成。

Text description provided by the architects. This is one of our favorite houses. It embraces our ideals of building small and efficient. It is also one of our earlier prototype projects to test out ideas on future proofing. It was originally a compact two and a half story, 1625 sqft intermediate link house, which we souped-up to 4 stories (half basement and master bedroom attic) with an internal green wall courtyard. It now has an approx 2400 sqft final built up.

当我们开始，客户，一对年轻夫妇和他们的第一个孩子在路上，有一个非常紧张的预算(一如既往！)这是他们的第一套地产(当时他们住在一套公寓里)，这将是他们的“房子”，希望是他们的！最后的家，他们会在那里安顿下来，养育一个家庭。为了在预算范围内建造房子，足迹必须保持较小。我们是一个非常有效的设计的支持者，我们相信我们可以满足所有客户的需要，而不必延长房子太多。

When we started, the clients; a young couple with their first child on the way, had a very tight budget (as always!). This was their first landed property (they were then staying in an apartment) and it was going to be “the” house; their (hopefully!) final home, where they will settle down properly and raise a family. In order to build the house within budget, the footprint had to be kept small. We are a very big proponent of efficient design and we believe we can fit in all the client's needs, without having to extend the house too much.

另一种有效的方法是将来证明房子。也就是说，把房子设计成最大的潜力，满足客户的全部愿望，但是.我们优先考虑并只建立他们立即需要的东西。我们先建造了所有凌乱而复杂的基础设施部件，而其他干燥的工程，如橱柜和细木工(甚至是额外的浴室和卧室墙壁)，可以在需要时增加。客户可以在10年或15年后再加上这些。

The other effective way would be to future proof the house. That is, to design the house to its maximum potential, meeting the client's full wish list but... we prioritize and only build what is immediately required to them. We get all the messy and complicated infrastructure components built first, and the other dry works like cabinetry and joinery (even additional bathrooms and bedroom walls), can be added later when it is needed. The clients can add these on 10 or 15 years down the line.

例如，当他们刚搬进来的时候，房子里有一间主卧室、一间书房、一间女佣室、一个大的空地，里面有一间客房和一间游戏室，总共有三个浴室。在未来，在相同的脚印范围内，这座房子可以有效地增加4间房间(除了主卧室、自习室和女佣室)和一间额外的浴室。我们为此设计并建造了基础设施！

For example, when they initially moved in with their newborn baby, the house had a master bedroom, a study, maid's room, a large open area which doubled up as a guest room and playroom, and a total of 3 bathrooms. In the future, within the same footprint, the house can effectively be built up to have 4 more rooms (in addition to the master bedroom, study room, and maid's room) and an additional bathroom. We designed and built the infrastructure for this!

这座房子的另一个关键特征是中央庭院/明渠，它贯穿整个房子的顶部。这是房子的主要光源和空气来源。顶部有一个顶倾斜的聚碳酸酯屋顶，它允许交叉通风，防止雨淋。这口气井的高度(4层)能产生极好的叠加效果，使房子保持微风和凉爽。

The other key feature of this house is the central courtyard/light well which punches through all the way to the top. This is the main source of light and air for the house. There is a jacked pitched polycarbonate roof at the top which allows cross ventilation and keeps the rain out. The height (4 stories) of this air well makes for an excellent stack effect that keeps the house breezy and cool.

这个中央庭院允许用户从几乎每一个空间到另一个空间都有一条视线。它是通向房子里所有空间的视觉链接。这是设计小空间的关键因素：连续的视线(和大量的自然光！)确保空间不感到幽闭恐惧症，并给出空间比实际大得多的感觉。

This central courtyard allows users to have a line of sight from practically every space to another. It is the visual link to all the spaces in the house. This is the key factor in designing small spaces: continuous line of sight (and a lot of natural light!) ensures that the spaces do not feel claustrophobic and gives the perception that the spaces are much larger than they actually are.

我们还包括雨水收集管道基础设施，收集到的雨水可以储存和用于浇水植物，洗车，甚至冲洗厕所里的水。由于预算有限，我们没有把储罐、泵和过滤器放进去，但可以在以后再加进去。屋顶和花园露台的雨水通过交响乐雨水管道通过快流输送到预先指定的储罐区域。

We also included the piping infrastructure for rainwater harvesting where the harvested rainwater can be stored and used for watering the plants, washing the cars and even flushing the WCs in the bathrooms. We didn't put in the storage tanks, pumps and filters due to the limited budget but they can be added in later. Rainwater from the roof and garden terrace are carried down to the predesignated area for the storage tanks via symphonic rainwater downpipes by Fast Flow.
