架构师提供的文本描述。莱伊河，流经历史悠久的城市根特，以其休闲划船而闻名于世。在距离根特市中心更远的下游，许多船减少了油门，或停下来看一处住宅，这与沿河的其他房屋完全不同。在一个像花园一样的高尔夫地形中，有一座雕塑般的混凝土单身汉公寓，嫁接在它主人的生活方式上。

Text description provided by the architects. The river Leie, that runs through the historic city Ghent is well known for its leisure boating. A bit further downstream from the city centre of Ghent, many boats reduce throttle or come to a full stop to gaze upon a residence, quite different from the other houses along the river. Amidst a golf terrain like garden lies a sculptural concrete bachelor pad, grafted on the lifestyle of its owner.

从河的角度看，有一个长的漂浮的水平混凝土框架，它定义了底层，内部和外部。底层设有全天功能，游泳池面积和游泳池房。第二个较小的混凝土体积包含主床。

The view from the river shows a long floating horizontal concrete framework that defines the ground floor, inside as well as outside. The ground floor holds all day functions, the pool area, and pool house. A second smaller concrete volume contains the master bed & bath room and two extra bed / bath rooms. A private terrace on the roof, linked only to the master bedroom, has a lowered floor towards the top of the volume, creating a private outside space with marvellous views towards the river and the garden.

整个一楼的面积强烈地指向这条河。正面的大部分是完全玻璃的，以使尽可能多的可见度与花园和河流。为了让更多的隐私，木箱一样的音量，容纳游泳池的房子，可以扩大与滑动板，以完全隐藏的游泳池面积，不让过往的船只在河上。通往街道的正面部分被一架木制飞机关闭，其中两扇大门和一扇通往电梯的大门。倾斜平面允许进入框架的高架混凝土板上。第一层的夜店向花园完全开放，街道和河流被混凝土墙隔开。每间卧室都有一个私人露台。

The entire ground floor area is strongly directed towards the river. Most parts of the facade are completely glazed to allow as much visibility with the garden and river as possible. To allow more privacy, the wooden box like volume that holds the pool house, can be extended with sliding panels, to completely hide the pool area from the passing boats on the river. The front façade towards the street is partially closed by a wooden plane, holding 2 entrance doors and a gate towards the car elevator. An inclined plane allows the entrance on the elevated concrete slab of the framework. The night quarters on the first level are completely opened up towards the garden, and closed off by concrete walls towards the street and river. Each bedroom has a private terrace.

夜间活动居住在地下。沿着玻璃幕墙下楼，明亮的底层变得漆黑。

Nightly activities reside underground. Descending the stairs along the glazed front façade, the bright ground floor becomes dark & cosy in the cave. Wood and black Moroccan tadelakt set the tone. The focus in the basement lies on the big window behind the bar, revealing the inside of the pool. The bar behind the pool window, a DJ booth, a glazed wine cabinet, the long lounge benches, the area for exclusive cars, a built in cigar cabinet, are the embodiment of an exclusive underground club.
