架构师提供的文本描述。位于孟加拉乡村郁郁葱葱的绿地中，池屋是达斯祖籍的延伸。在购买了他现有平房两侧的一些土地后，这位健身爱好者要求在他的住所增加一个游泳池、体育馆、露天草坪和客人娱乐区。

Text description provided by the architects. Set amidst lush greens of rural Bengal, Pool House is an extension to the ancestral home of Mr Das. Having procured some land on two sides of his existing bungalow, the client, a fitness enthusiast, required a swimming pool, gymnasium, open lawns and guest entertainment areas as an addition to his residence.

基本的Vaastu准则规定游泳池位于平房的东面。因此，扩建工程的建筑面积向东北方向规划，使现有住宅和新规划的体育馆和客座都能通畅的照明和通风。此外，这也便利了游泳池和北部草坪的开放视野，这两个结构都是如此。

Basic Vaastu guidelines dictated the pool to be located towards the East of the bungalow. The built mass of the extension was thus planned towards the North-East enabling unobstructed light and ventilation to both the existing residence and the newly planned gymnasium and guest block. This moreover facilitated open views of the swimming pool and the northern lawns from both structures.

 Ground Floor Plan

从平房一楼到游泳池综合体的两个通道被设计成建筑特色。从房子的东南角进入，穿过一座小桥，变成一个悬臂式楼梯。这座桥本身就是从南边的道路上看到的一道屏障.这条过道的开窗是用光滑的木制百叶窗制作的，在保持通风的同时也提供了隐私。通往平房东北角的入口被设计成一个现代的甲板，悬挑在两边。这种简约结构补充了现有的旧原型住宅。一个精心设计的花岗岩楼梯将一个人引向延伸处。

Two accesses from the first floor of the bungalow to the pool complex were designed as architectural features. The entry from the South-East corner of the house makes its way across a small bridge turning into a cantilevered staircase. The bridge mass itself proves to act as a visual barrier from the South-lying road. The fenestration for this gangway has been crafted with sleek wooden louvers to provide privacy while still enabling ventilation. The entry towards the North-East corner of the bungalow is designed as a modern deck cantilevering out on two sides. This minimalistic structure complements the existing old archetypal residence. A crafted granite staircase leads one down to the extension.

健身房和客座本身是以一种简单的，圆滑的语言设计的，有突出的框架阳台和一个声明的外部楼梯。百叶窗允许过滤光进入室内，创造了柔和的光线和阴影。在乡村绿地的广阔背景下，这座街区可以俯瞰游泳池的全景。

The gym and guest block itself is designed in a simple, sleek language with overhanging frame balconies and a statement external staircase. Louvred fenestration allows filtered light in to the indoors creating a soft play of light and shade. This block enjoys a panoramic view of the swimming pool against a vast backdrop of rural greens.

池边两旁是一个连续的荷塘，上面点缀着雕刻的树木。后面粉刷的边墙点缀着小壁龛，里面有灯。到了晚上，灯光不足的游泳池和温暖的灯光在这个建筑群中产生了一种迷人的效果。桥下设计了一个热水浴缸，让它舒适地坐在景观中。

The pool is bordered on two sides by a continuous lotus pond interspersed with sculptural trees. The whitewashed boundary wall behind is dotted with small niches that house lamps within them. By night, the under-lit pool and the warm lamps create a mesmerising effect in the complex. A hot tub has been designed under the bridge access to snugly sit amid landscape features.

定制雕塑增加了这座住宅的景观和处理的价值。客户来自农业背景，希望草坪不仅仅是草地。因此，他们的设计与绿色灌木丛，温和的土墩和综合照明。露台被添加到开阔的区域，这样人们就可以近距离欣赏花园的景观了。作为一个极简主义的框架，这个展馆展示了它所处的繁茂的绿色，而不是从它们中脱颖而出。

Custom made sculptures add value to the landscaping and treatment of this residence. The client comes from an agricultural background and wished for the lawns to be more than a grassy field. They were thus designed with verdant shrubbery, gentle mounds and integrated lighting. A gazebo was added to the open area so one could enjoy the landscaped garden up close. Designed as a minimalist frame, this pavilion showcases the flourishing greens amongst which it sits rather than stand out from them.
