架构师提供的文本描述。这座新建住宅的概念，位于伦敦西部一条繁忙的公路和大联合运河之间的狭长地带，是作为对城市环境的谨慎回应而发展起来的。主音量延续维多利亚时代酒吧东侧的护栏线-一座上市的建筑-包层系统的水平线与工地边缘老建筑的窗户高度有关。由于高水平的交通噪音，北façade有很少的开口，但避免了黑暗和阴郁的铝包层。

Text description provided by the architects. The concept for this new-build home, located on a narrow strip of land between a busy road and the Grand Union canal in West London, developed as a careful response to the urban context. The main volume continues the parapet line of the Victorian pub to the east—a listed building—and the horizontal lines of the cladding system relate to the window heights of the older building at the edge of the site. Due to a high level of traffic noise, the north façade has very few openings, but avoids being dark and gloomy thanks to the aluminium cladding.

随着光线的提供和运河方向的视野，南边的̧ADE有更多的窗户，垂直高度被一个两层的延伸部分打破，其三角图由道路和运河之间的角度决定。延伸的高度与邻近车间的屋顶和运河对面的建筑物相连。

With the availability of light and views in the direction of the canal, the south façade features more windows and the vertical height is broken by a two-story extension whose triangular plan is determined by the angle between the road and canal. The height of the extension connects with the roofs of the neighbouring workshop and buildings across the canal.

在内部，这个部分被组织成一系列的平行空间，从一个条件移动到另一个条件。每个楼层的构想方式与其宗旨一致，基本上独立于上述或下面的安排。虽然新的楼层是向南开放的，但这一安排的奇异之处被改变了的façade：俯瞰运河的镜像槽、一楼封闭的庭院和二楼柱顶画廊的变化所掩盖。

Inside, the section is organised as a series of parallel spaces that move from one condition to the other. Each floor is conceived in a manner that is consistent with its purpose and is largely independent of the arrangements above or below. Although the new floors are open to the south, the singularity of this arrangement is obscured by changes to the section of the façade: the mirrored slots overlooking the canal, the enclosed court on the first floor, and the colonnaded gallery on the second floor.

从地下室的考古特征到地面的屏蔽前院，客房和音乐室的围护感与主卧室宽敞的隐私、宽松的居住空间和屋顶露台的开阔视野相比，为不同的活动和心理状态提供了广泛的场所。在这方面，楼梯的设计是为了促进在一系列情况下的选择和连续性。

From the archaeological character of the basement to the screened forecourt at ground level, the sense of enclosure in the guest and music rooms compared with the expansive privacy of the master bedroom, the loose formality of the living space, and the open vistas of the roof terrace, the house offers a wide range of locations for different activities and states of mind. In this context, the staircases are designed to promote choice and continuity within a range of scenarios.
