架构师提供的文本描述。这座先导别墅建于19世纪中期，是最初的“温彻斯特别墅”之一；这是一套为富人建造的家庭住宅，靠近英国最古老的学校温彻斯特学院(Winchester College)。这些房子是用精美的砖块和砖石砌成的，是大家庭住宅的一个精巧的例子。

Text description provided by the architects. Built in the mid-19th century, The Pilot's House was one of the original ‘Winchester Villas’; a collection of family homes built for the wealthy and located close to England’s oldest school, Winchester College. Built using fine brick-work and flint masonry, the houses were an exquisite example of a grand family home.

近两百年来，一对夫妇面对温彻斯特飞涨的房价，为了给他们的四个孩子和狗寻找一个家庭住所，意外地发现了房子失修的状况。看到恢复以前的辉煌的潜力，他们知道他们必须购买它。这所房子住在卫生和社会服务部的租户中间，有无数潮湿和形状奇特的房间，这些房间被随意布置，以最大限度地占用，而不关心居住空间的质量或对老房子的尊重。屋顶也漏水了，几乎要失修了。

Jumping ahead by nearly two hundred years, a married couple facing Winchester’s soaring house prices and in search of a family home for their four children and dog, stumbled upon the house in a sorry state of disrepair. Seeing the potential to restore it back to its former glory they knew they had to purchase it. Occupied with Department of Health and Social Services tenants, the house had a myriad of damp and oddly shaped rooms that had unceremoniously been arranged to maximise occupancy with little care to the quality of the living space or respect to the old home. The roof was also leaky and close to disrepair.

AR Design Studio was approached by the clients with a brief to return the home to its original splendour and add a 21st Century twist. As well as finely detailed conservation and restoration, the clients were keen to add a modern open-plan living space and an indoor swimming pool. As experts in both restoration and contemporary design, AR Design Studio were the perfect architects to undertake the work and proposed a scheme that would give the clients the family home that they had always dreamed of whilst making their mark on the house with a modern enhancement.

维多利亚时代的房间不考虑我们今天的生活方式，所以不想过多地破坏原来的布局，AR设计工作室提出了一个大的开放式居住空间，让家庭能够充分利用他们在一起的时间。毗邻这一空间，室内游泳池是进一步增加，已成为一个坚定的喜爱与朋友和家人的聚会，以适应所有年龄。整个延伸被一个熟悉的倾斜屋顶覆盖，它从房子的后面跑开，优雅地向东延伸到古老的边界墙和升起的太阳。根据建筑传统的山墙和无烟煤锌与建筑物的板砖结合，新的方面是对旧建筑的身份的当代的认可。这个计划被吸引到花园里，现在已经连接到了它的自然坡地。充分利用这一景观，AR设计工作室包括一个主题的全宽度的步骤，从花园流经房子和进入私人庭院，减少视觉质量和帮助区域的新空间，同时负责地处理水平的变化。阶梯式景观的进一步表现是居住空间上方的两个附加屋顶，这有助于减少对比外观，模糊新旧之间的界限。整个南面的延伸是玻璃，然后阴影由一个突出的天篷支持的柱廊，表达了新的延伸形式，并唤起了一种壮丽的感觉。

The Victorian-era rooms were inconsiderate of the way in which we live today, so without wanting to disrupt the original layout too much, AR Design Studio proposed a large open-plan living space that would allow the family to make the most of their time together. Adjacent to this space, the indoor swimming pool is a further addition that has become a firm favourite with friends and family for gatherings to suit all ages. The whole extension is covered by a familiar pitched roof that runs away from the rear of the house and elegantly reaches east towards the ancient boundary wall and the rising sun. Informed by the buildings traditional gables and clad in anthracite zinc to tie in with the building’s slate tiles, the new aspect is a contemporary nod towards the old building’s identity. Absorbed in to the garden, the scheme now has a connection to its naturally sloping site. Making the most of this landscape, AR Design Studio included a theme of full-width steps which flow from the garden through the house and into the private courtyard, reducing a visual mass and helping to zone the new spaces whilst responsibly dealing with the changes in level. A further expression of the stepped landscape are the two additional roofs above the living space which help to reduce the contrasting appearance and blur the boundary between the old and the new. The entire southern façade of the extension is glazed and then shaded by an overhanging canopy supported by a colonnade that expresses the form of the new extension and evokes a feeling of grandeur.
