建筑师提供的文字说明。这一任务的出发点是奥斯陆的一个典型挑战：在现有的单一家庭住房领域的致密化。这个地块是一个可爱的旧花园，但是地势平坦，情况比较紧张，景色有限。我们很重要的是，在户外和室内都能保存大量的花园供户外使用，但也是对居民的享受的一种自然品质。因此，地面地板具有相对有限的占地面积，而较大的上地板悬臂产生覆盖的室外区域。

Text description provided by the architects. The starting point for this task was a typical challenge in Oslo: densification in an area of existing single family houses. The plot was a lovely old garden, but a flat terrain and a relatively tight situation gave a limited view. It was important for us to preserve much of the garden for outdoor use, but also as a natural quality to the enjoyment of residents, both outside and inside. Therefore, the ground floor has a relatively limited footprint, while the larger upper floor cantilevers out creating covered outdoor areas.

房子被分成更小的体积，以适应相对紧张的情况和周围建筑物的规模。

The house is broken up into smaller volumes to adapt to the relatively tight situation and the scale of the surrounding buildings.

作为对花园的补充，并作为减少景观的补偿，该项目创造了一种内部景观，一系列不同规模和用途的房间，不同程度的透明度和隐私，不断变化的景观和光线条件。中央双高起居室是住宅的心脏，连接着所有的房间和区域。房间被大厅、厨房和餐厅包围在一楼，花园里有各种各样的室外区域。

As an addition to the garden, and as compensation for the reduced view, the project creates an inner landscape, a sequence of rooms with varying scale and use, different degrees of transparency and privacy, changing views and light conditions. The central double height living room is the heart of the house and connects all the rooms and areas. The room is surrounded in first floor by lobby, kitchen and dining room, and the garden with its various outdoor areas.

楼梯通向通往私人房间、卧室和浴室的画廊。画廊是一个休闲的地方，作为房间的延伸。一个巨大的天窗提供了各种各样的光和阴影的影响，通过一天。

A staircase leads up to a gallery with access to the private rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms. The gallery is a casual place, and acts as an extension of the rooms. A large skylight provides varied light and shadow effects through the day.

房子的结构是预制的木柱和横梁。所有结构部件都暴露在项目内部。悬挑在二楼的房间悬挂在屋顶下的高梁上。梁有不同的尺寸，取决于悬臂长度。这些列具有独特的尺寸，适合它们各自的负载。规范或清理房屋建筑，不是其目标，而是住宅几何形态的有机产物。

The house structure is prefabricated wooden columns and beams. All structure parts are exposed in the interior of the project. The cantilevered rooms on the 2nd floor hanging from high beams under the roof. The beams have different dimensions, depending on the cantilever length. The columns have unique dimensions, adapted to their individual loads. It has not been the goal to standardize or clean up the construction, but rather let it be an organic result of the housing geometry.

一个系统不能立即被理解为一个清晰的结构，而是赋予森林的品质，在那里你可以让你的眼睛在连续的树枝上徘徊。该项目是在有限的预算范围内进行的。然而，建筑工人、建筑师和承包商之间的开放和信任的合作，使一个独特和精心设计的房子。

A system that cannot immediately be read as a clear structure, but rather gives the qualities of a forest, where you can let your eyes wander along continuing branches. The project is carried out within a limited budget. An open and trusting cooperation between the builder, architect and contractor has nevertheless enabled a distinctive and elaborate house.
