我们的方法赞成使用自然材料，无论是内部还是外部，以便在房屋及其周围环境之间建立一种关系。一系列相互连接的房间允许清晰的视线在整个房子，同时也最大限度地利用可用的光线。

Our approach favoured the use of natural materials, both inside and out, in order to create a relationship between the house and its surrounding environment. A series of inter-connecting rooms allow clear lines of vision throughout the house while also maximising the available light.
