架构师提供的文本描述。我们从一对已婚夫妇那里得到委托，在密密而困难的环境下，设计一座建在一块小地块上的房子(8米的正面和30米的深度)。这对夫妇，他们的孩子已经离开了家，要求我们要一个简单的房子，没有障碍，而且有强烈的当代感觉。

Text description provided by the architects. We received a commission from a married couple to design a house to be built on a small plot (with an 8-meter frontage and a depth of 30 meters) inserted within a dense and difficult context. The couple, whose children had already left home, asked us for a simple house, obstruction-free and with a strongly contemporary feel.

布局是基于这样的想法，使用正面和后方延伸，没有中断，以提供空间的感觉，即使是小面积可用。

The layout is based on the idea of using the frontage and the rear extension without interruptions to give a sense of space even with the small area available.

平面图

建筑物的两端有两个轴线，每个轴宽1.5米。所有的服务-浴室、厨房、储藏室和化粪池-都集中在南端，所有的循环都在北方。这使得在两个轴之间有一个5×5米的调制空间.在这一系列的结构中，布置了两个天井作为过滤光线的手段。

Two axes were defined along the ends of the building, each measuring 1.5 meters wide. All of the services –bathrooms, kitchen, larders, and septic tanks –are grouped together at the south end; all the circulations are at the north. This enables a 5-by-5 meter modulated space between the two axes. Within this sequence of structures, two patios were arranged as a means of filtering the light.

因此，尽管情节紧凑，但这些地区仍能提供开阔的视野。其结果是一个宽敞而明亮的房子，在那里庭院可以享受所有的时间。

Therefore the areas are connected to afford wide open views despite the compactness of the plot. The result is a spacious and bright house where courtyards can be enjoyed all the time.
