 Axonometric

典型的时期的房屋，相对狭窄，但深入的计划，房子的中心以前是黑暗的，与其他的断开。

Typical of houses of the period with relatively narrow, but deep plans, the centre of the house was formerly dark and disconnected from the rest.

墙壁被拆除，其余部分形成开口，漆制的人字形橡木地板在整个过程中铺设，从前面的起居室开始，通过中间的舒适，到后面的厨房/就餐区，创造一个连续的空间。舒适已成为一个自然照明，连接良好的空间，通过客厅到前面的花园和街道，通过厨房和餐饮区到后花园的景观。

Walls were demolished, openings were formed in those remaining, and lacquered herringbone pattern oak parquet flooring was laid throughout, to create one continuous space from the living area at the front, through the snug in the centre, to the kitchen/dining area at the rear. The snug has become a naturally lit, well connected space, with views through the living area to the front garden and street, and through the kitchen and dining area to the back garden.

 Floor Plan

该方案最大限度地利用了分隔地板的水平，因为舒适的地板变成了墙壁，地板衬里有凹墙，台阶变成了墙壁周围的架子，一边是现有壁炉的长椅，另一边是一张桌子。这些台阶被用作家庭成员坐、聊、读、写、画、表演和玩耍的场所，而舒适已成为家庭和家庭生活的中心。

The scheme makes the most of the split floor levels, as floors in the snug become walls, with flooring lining recessed walls, and steps become shelves extending around the walls, and becoming a bench seat by the existing fireplace on one side, and a desk on the other. The steps have been appropriated as a place for family members to sit, chat, read, write, draw, perform, and play, and the snug has become the centre of the home and of family life.
