架构师提供的文本描述。本住宅项目位于爱知县奥布市，也是客户当代艺术收藏的画廊空间。这座建筑由一个混合结构组成，一楼有一个平台，由钢筋混凝土和玻璃组成，木箱配置在两层，放在讲台上。楼面面积越高，面积越大。该建筑采用一层加玻璃的箱体，另一层为2层和3层的箱体，代表1层的不同颜色，在空间中有漂浮感，使建筑从比例上呈现出鲜明的特征。

Text description provided by the architects. This residential project located in Obu city, Aichi prefecture, serves also as a gallery space for the contemporary art collection of the client. This building consists of a hybrid structure, with a podium on the 1st floor level composed of reinforced concrete and glazing, and wooden boxes configured in two floor levels and placed on top of the podium. Floor area becomes larger as it goes up in higher levels. With the box on the 1st floor level in glazing, and the other boxes for 2nd and 3rd floor levels in galvanized steel siding representing different color from the 1st level, the building provides a distinct character from its proportion with a sense of floating in the space.

第二层是悬臂，以提供一个车库空间，以皮诺蒂斯风格的两辆车在第一层。第一层的讲台在街道的一侧是完全玻璃的，以提供良好的可见性的画廊。画廊空间的地板水平作为半地下下沉空间被降低为磁性空间，而空间内设置的混凝土隔板阻挡了直接的日光，使参观者可以通过天花板上的反射光欣赏艺术作品。

 The 2nd floor level is cantilevered, in order to provide a garage space in pilotis style for two cars on the 1st floor level. The 1st floor podium is fully glazed on the street side for giving good visibility of the gallery. The floor level of the gallery space is lowered as a semi-underground sunken space to be magnetic, while a concrete partition provided inside of the space blocks the direct daylight, allowing visitors to the gallery appreciate art pieces via reflected light on the ceiling.

家庭房间的室内装饰和家具被有意地赋予单调的色彩，以最简单的方式，使这个空间从生活空间转变为未来的替代画廊空间，以展示客户的艺术收藏。它将是一个观景室，与艺术生活在不失去隐私感的情况下，充分利用内阳台和其他元素，充分减少直接与外界连接的建筑物开口。

The interior finish and furniture of the family room is intentionally given monotonous colors with the utmost simplicity, allowing this space to be converted from the living space into alternative gallery space in the future to exhibit the art collection of the client. It will be a viewing room, for living together with art without loosing sense of privacy, by making good use of inner balcony and other elements for fully reducing openings of the building directly connecting to the outside.
