架构师提供的文本描述。从20世纪50年代开始，一座现有的单层半独立住宅被改建，并增加了一层第二层，以容纳一个五口之家。

Text description provided by the architects. An existing single-story, semi-detached house from the 1950's was remodeled and added a second story to accommodate a family of five.

这所房子，按照情节的形状，又长又窄，除了大门，街道的门面几乎没有窗户。一楼有洗漱用品，一楼有一个深阳台，房子和繁忙的道路之间有缓冲区。

The house, which follows the shape of the plot, is long and narrow, and apart from the entrance door the street façade is almost windowless. Toilettes on the ground floor and a deep balcony on the first floor buffer between the house and the busy road.

将正门从它以前位于长方形立面上的位置重新定位，使我们能够种植一个大花园和室外起居区，通过大玻璃门可以看到和进入，这就扩大了外面的居住空间。

Relocating the main entrance from its previous position on the long façade enabled us to plant a large garden and outdoor living area, visible and accessible via large glass sliding doors, which extends the living space outside.

为了保持足够的隐私，主卧室位于一楼，儿童卧室位于第一层。主卧室位于厨房的后面，面向它，靠近自己的私人小花园。

In order to maintain sufficient privacy, the master bedroom is located on the ground floor and the children's bedrooms on the first. The master bedroom is located behind the kitchen, and faces away from it, to a private small garden of its own.

结构加固形成了一种建筑语言，通过它可以揭示房屋的历史：除了底层是暴露的混凝土，现有天花板上的楼梯开口由钢柱支撑。

Structural reinforcements form an architectural language through which the house's history is revealed: addition to the ground floor is in exposed concrete, and the stairway opening cut from the existing ceiling is supported by steel columns.

钢楼梯由Z形元素组成，是客厅的主要特色.楼梯栏杆继续向上延伸，并与一楼栏杆融合。

The steel stairway, consisting of Z-shape elements, is the dominant feature in the living room. The stair railing continues upwards and merges with the first floor balustrade.

一楼是用灰色的石头铺成的，这也是浴室墙壁的覆层，而儿童的面积则是深色的木地板。所有木工元素都漆成白色。

The ground floor is paved with gray stone, which is used also as cladding of the bathroom walls, while the children's area is dark wooden floor. All carpentry elements are painted white.
