该项目探讨了公共空间和私人空间之间的关系，并重新想象了乡土单一的正面露台类型。该设计借鉴了一种由再生红砖、生水泥板和木材组成的约束材料调色板。外观是抽象的，但吸引人，并与街道互动。

The project explores the relationship between public and private space and re-imagines the vernacular single fronted terrace typology. The design draws upon a restrained material palette of recycled red brick, raw cement sheet panels and timber. The façade is abstract yet engaging and interactive with the street.

双层车库和上层窗户与可操作的穿孔百叶窗连接在一起，形成一个无缝集成的立面。务实地说，可操作的百叶窗是为了暴露视图，控制通风，获得太阳能接入和提供隐私。百叶窗的可操作性和半透明有助于在一定程度上与街道接触。这是放大在晚上，当发光穿孔动画的外观和创造一个好玩和充满活力的入口前院。

The double garage and upper level windows are articulated with operable perforated shutters which create a seamlessly integrated façade. Pragmatically the operable shutters are devised to expose views, control ventilation, gain solar access and provide privacy. The operability and translucency of the shutters contribute to a level of engagement with the street. This is amplified in the evenings when the glowing perforations animate the façade and create a playful and vibrant entry forecourt.

该项目为私人住宅提供了在城市一级开展工作的机会。与邻居不同的是，这所房子并不是用前面的篱笆把自己围起来，而是在混凝土交叉和高墙的街景中用开阔的前厅来创造浮雕。入口手势是外化的，标志着从沿着东部边界的人行道开始的直线甲板。百叶窗的可操作性和半透明性在一定程度上促进了人们对街道的参与，而在晚上，当明亮的射孔使门面生动活泼，以创造一个有趣而充满活力的入口前厅时，这一点就被放大了。

The project provided an opportunity for a private house to engage at an urban level. Unlike its neighbors, the house does not enclose itself with a front fence but creates relief with the open forecourt situated within a streetscape of concrete crossovers and high fences. The entry gesture is externalized, signified by a linear deck beginning at the footpath which spans along the eastern boundary. The operability and translucency of the shutters contribute a level of engagement with the street, amplified in the evenings when the glowing perforations animate the façade to create a playful and vibrant entry forecourt.

在一楼，一个单一的开放式空间容纳厨房，居住和就餐区域，而一个双车库前面的入口前院。一楼可容纳两间卧室和浴室，以及一个大的中央空隙，垂直地连接室内容积。该设计在预算范围内满足了客户的实际限制，同时还提供了各种吸引人的空间条件、光线和体积，以提高他们的日常生活体验。

On the ground floor, a singular open plan volume accommodates the kitchen, living and dining areas while a double garage fronts the entry forecourt. The first floor accommodates two bedrooms and bathrooms and a large central void which vertically inter-connects the interior volumes. The design meets the client’s pragmatic constraints within budget while also offering a variety of engaging spatial conditions, light and volume to enhance their daily living experience.
