为了改善邻居的隐私，我们布置了一个带有浮动混凝土墙的新庭院。

To improve the privacy regarding the neighbours we positioned a new courtyard with floating concrete walls.

在路旁，由于地形坡度，在浮动的混凝土墙和地板下有一个车库。车库上方的地板变成了一个反射池。

On the streetside, because of the terrain slope , there is a carport under the floating concrete wall and floor. The floor above the carport is transformed as a reflecting pond.

在史蒂文·范登堡办公室的抽象建筑中，内部与外部之间的转换是非常典型的。院子里所有空间的正面都是玻璃门。

The transition between inside an outside is very typical in the abstract architecture of the office of Steven Vandenborre. All the facades of the spaces on the courtyard are glazed doors.

总体印象是花园墙的抽象，一座建筑的混凝土浮动墙，可以坐落在瑞士的一座小山上。由于内嵌的性格，自己的气候(无风)和游泳池，庭院使居民感到他们在自己的房子度假。

The overall impression is that of an abstraction of garden walls, concrete floating walls of a building that could be located on a hill in Switzerland. Because of the embedded character , own climate (no wind) and swimming pool the courtyard makes the residents feel like they are on holiday in their own house
