架构师提供的文本描述。梯田式住宅指的是无数的郊区建议，试图最大限度地利用他们的斜坡景观。令人惊讶的是，这些提议往往远离了对这个城市毫不妥协的信念。他们在城郊排成一排，争先恐后地站稳脚跟。在我们的城市里，风景和全景不是城市议程的一部分。

Text description provided by the architects. Terraced housing refers to the countless suburban proposals seeking to maximize views with their slopes. Surprisingly, these proposals are often far removed from an uncompromising belief in the city. They line the outskirts of urban configurations, jostling to assert themselves. In our cities, views and panoramas are not part of an urban agenda.

我们的“梦想都市”是并将继续是小城市类型学的一部分。因此，我们没有都市继承，也没有地方参考资料可供依赖。

Our “dream metropolis” is and will remain part of the small-city typology. As a result, we possess no metropolitan inheritance, no local references on which to lean.

看来，要达到城市中心试图发展和建设真正的城市类型的地步，就必须出现周边人口枯竭的现象。我们把露台从外围运回城市。我们把它们堆放在一个大的城市住宅里。

It seems that an exhaustion of the periphery must occur in order to reach the point when the city center will attempt to develop and construct truly urban typologies.  We transport the terrace from the periphery back into the city. We stack them into a large urban residence.

这座塔与埃舍尔-威斯工业区边缘、废弃和隐蔽的现有原始仓库融合在一起-这是苏黎世不寻常的情况。歌剧院的彩排阶段将与现有的建筑结合起来，与周围的工业生产建立联系，至今仍很活跃。

The tower merges with the existing, original warehouse that stands on the edge of the Escher-Wyss industrial area, abandoned and hidden – a situation unusual to Zurich. Rehearsal stages for the opera house will be integrated with the existing buildings to create a link with the surrounding industrial production, still active today.

新的建筑吸收了现存的东西，注入了多孔的物质。它从里面填满旧的拱形窗户，因此被转换成一个新的整体。通过编织现有的工业元素与住宅塔楼，该建筑与一个不寻常的城市情况，站在轻微抵消街道。

The new construction absorbs the existing, infusing it with a porous materiality. It fills the old arched windows from the inside, and as such is converted into a new whole. By weaving the existing industrial elements with the residential tower, the building engages with an unusual urban situation, standing slightly offset from the street.

建筑物的轮廓呈锥形发展。从现有结构的上部边缘，深度25米，8米的新公寓单元不断向上叠加。一个朝南的论坛报上升到60米的高度，展现了城市中心和苏黎世湖的广阔景色。

The profile of the building develops conically. From the upper edge of the existing structure, with a depth of 25 meters, the new apartments of 8 meter modules stack continuously upwards. A south-facing tribune rises to a height of 60 meters and reveals an expansive view over the city center and Lake Zurich.
