架构师提供的文本描述。作为一个为摄影师和他的年轻家庭设计的家和工作室，Lightbox位于一个半岛上，从不列颠哥伦比亚省向南延伸到罗伯茨点。这个森林密集的地方坐落在一个180英亩的公园旁，可以俯瞰佐治亚海峡、圣胡安群岛和普吉特海峡。

Text description provided by the architects. Designed as a home and studio for a photographer and his young family, Lightbox is located on a peninsula that extends south from British Columbia across the border to Point Roberts. The densely forested site lies beside a 180-acre park that overlooks the Strait of Georgia, the San Juan Islands and the Puget Sound.

在体验了世界从黑色聚焦布和大格式相机镜头，摄影师有一个特别的爱好简单和欣赏独特的，真正的和精心制作的细节。

Having experienced the world from under a black focusing cloth and large format camera lens, the photographer has a special fondness for simplicity and an appreciation of unique, genuine and well-crafted details.

 Floor Plan

这座房子在尺寸和手段上都非常朴素，用简单的材料建造了一个简单而又新颖的建筑结构。其结果是由负担得起和常见的材料，如裸露木材，形成结构框架和直接支持预制铝窗系统的标准玻璃单位一致大小，以降低复杂性和整体成本的结构。

The home was made decidedly modest, in size and means, with a building skin utilizing simple materials in a straightforward yet innovative configuration. The result is a structure crafted from affordable and common materials such as exposed wood two-bys that form the structural frame and directly support a prefabricated aluminum window system of standard glazing units uniformly sized to reduce the complexity and overall cost.

在一条倾斜的木板路上，从西边进入，将两种截然不同的形式一分为二，这座房子轻轻地坐落在森林地板上方的土地上。

Accessed from the west on a sloped boardwalk that bisects its two contrasting forms, the house sits lightly on the land above the forest floor.

 Floor Plan

一个面向南方的两层玻璃笼子，用于生活，捕捉太阳和视图，因为它庆祝光和影子在森林中的相互作用。在北方，楼梯被装在一个薄薄的木箱里，盒子里沾着传统的芬兰松木焦油涂层染成黑色。狭小的孔洞，在原本坚实、黑暗的木墙上，锐利地聚焦在深邃森林边缘，生机勃勃的老杉树的剪裁景观。

A south facing two-story glassy cage for living captures the sun and view as it celebrates the interplay of light and shadow in the forest. To the north, stairs are contained in a thin wooden box stained black with a traditional Finnish pine tar coating. Narrow apertures in the otherwise solid dark wooden wall sharply focus the vibrant cropped views of the old growth fir trees at the edge of the deep forest.

Lightbox是一种简单而有力的姿态，它使人们能够在不断变化的森林光线中看到站点的微妙和美丽，同时提供舒适和愉悦。

Lightbox is an uncomplicated yet powerful gesture that enables one to view the subtlety and beauty of the site while providing comfort and pleasure in the constantly changing light of the forest.
