架构师提供的文本描述。建筑工地可以从两个不同的方向到达：一个是3米宽的车道，只能用摩托车，另一个是5米宽的车道。这个地点是内陆的许多紧密的建筑物：前面的5米车道有4层(15米高)的联排房屋和后部毗邻7.5米高，2层的房子。因此，它形成了一个独特的锯齿形的网站，与“结”的效果在中间。

Text description provided by the architects. The building site can be reached from 2 different directions: one from a 3 meter-wide lane that can only be used by motorbikes and another is from a 5 meter-wide lane. The site is landlocked by many closely placed buildings: the front of the 5m lane has the 4 storeys (15 meters high) townhouses and the back of this site adjacent with 7.5 meters high 2 storeys house. As a result, it forms the site with a distinctive zigzag shape, with “the Knots” effect in the middle.

设计解决方案是将房屋分成3座不同高度的街区，以适应不同的建筑功能。这些街区然后通过庭院连接，作为过渡空间；在整个场地都有灯光和自然通风。庭院空间是设计解决方案的“结”的一部分，并作为灵活的空间，以提供光，阴影，空气，隐私和住所。

The design solution is to divide the house into 3 blocks with different height levels to accommodate different building functions. These blocks are then connected by courtyard acting as transition space; bringing lights and natural ventilation throughout the site. The courtyard space is the design solution to “the Knots” part of the site and performed as flexible space to provide light, shade, air, privacy, and shelter.

有跨越3个街区的不同水平的走廊，这不仅允许更好的循环整个建筑，还捕捉到光线反射通过改变材料的阴影在一天中的不同时间。

There are corridors stretches across 3 blocks at different levels which not only allow better circulation throughout building but also capturing lights reflected through changing shade of the materials during the different times of day.

折叠式屋顶系统把所有的空间块包裹在一起，定义为一个整体.具有不同高度变化的“角几何”屋顶系统与屋顶景观相对应，并与周围的建筑融合。从5米宽的道路上看，与较宽车道上的其他房屋相比，房屋的不等高可视为主要观点。百叶窗系统从屋顶延伸到建筑立面，结合折叠式屋顶图案，创造了内外空间的美学连接；全年也可作为舒适的遮阳系统。

The folded-roof system wrapped all space blocks together to define as one unity. The “angular geometry” roof system designed with different changing height levels corresponds to roof-scape and blends itself with the surrounding buildings. When it is seen from 5meter wide road, the unequal height of the house in comparison with other houses on the wider lane can be seen as the main viewpoint in the context.The louver system extends from roof to building facades in combination of folded roof pattern create an aesthetic connection of both external and interior spaces; also performs as comfortable shading system all year around.
