设计在很大程度上是由三个语境条件组成的。第一种是高架入口，将起居空间放在上层，卧室和游戏室设在较低层。这一决定使生活空间能够最大限度地看到海湾的景色，并能看到水的边缘。第二个问题是盛行的南北风。这里的挑战是，视图是在这个方向和一套大的玻璃滑动门允许最大的视野。第三个主要问题是北面的太阳。对此和南风的反应是将游泳池安置在北面的一个庭院里，这个庭院可以捕捉房屋的阳光，也可以创造一个不受风影响的无风室外空间，一年到头都可以享受这一空间。

The design is largely formed by three contextual conditions. The first is the elevated entrance which placed the living spaces on the upper level and the bedrooms and playroom on the lower level. This decision allowed the living spaces to maximise the views of the bay and to see the water’s edge. The second issue is the prevailing South-Easterly wind. The challenge here is that the views are in this direction and a large set of glazed sliding doors allows the maximum view. The third major issue is the sun on the North side. The response to this and to the South-Easterly wind was to position the pool in a courtyard on the Northern face that captures sun for the house and also creates a wind free outdoor space that can be enjoyed year round regardless of the wind.

上面的楼层被构思成一个单独的空间来支撑游泳池的庭院，一个高架的门厅，一个带有大桌子的厨房，以及东边的餐饮和生活空间。L形空间被水平变化所打破，产生了明显不同的空间。由Corten钢制成的锥形烟道形成了一个视觉元素，空间围绕着这个元素旋转，生锈的表面反映了海岸环境。

The upper floor has been conceptualised as a single space holding the pool courtyard, an elevated entrance hall, a kitchen with a large table and a dining and living space on the East edge. The L-shaped space is broken up by level changes which create distinctly different spaces. A conical flue made from Corten steel forms a visual element around which the spaces pivot, the rusted surface reflecting the coastal environment.

茅草屋顶是支撑在周边的I-梁。茅草屋顶的木系梁被钢拉杆取代，使屋顶的开口体积形成空间的顶部，编织的茅草和后者形成与花岗岩地板的对应点。

The thatched roof is supported on a perimeter I-beam. The timber tie beams of the thatched roof are replaced by steel tie rods that allow the open volume of the roof to form the top of the space, the woven thatching grass and the latter forming a counterpoint to the granite floors.

一顶弯曲的Corten‘帽子’坐在布莱烟道上，看着游泳池的院子，这是位于院子另一边的Corten锥的玩伴。院子的北面是由一堵木墙构成的。在较低的层次上，关闭的混凝土板形成天花板.这些板坯上保留着被放置在板坯上的钢铁的锈迹，以及承包商的粉笔标记。

A curved Corten ‘hat’ sits over the braai flue and watches over the pool courtyard, a playful companion for the Corten cone that sits on the other side of the courtyard. The North face of the courtyard is formed by a timber wall. On the lower level, the off-shutter concrete slabs form the ceiling. The slabs retain rust marks from the steel that was laid in the slab and the chalk markings of the contractor.

简单的蜂窝卧室有一个锯齿状的立面，使角落的玻璃能最大限度地看到风景。窗帘轨道是用一个辐射状的角落投到板子上，这样在晚上窗帘关上时就会形成一个洞穴状的空间。简单的玻璃墙将套房与卧室分开，使这两个空间共享更大的空间。连接这两个层次的楼梯也是由75毫米厚的桉树板组成的I梁组成。

The simple cellular bedrooms have a serrated façade that allows for corner glazing to maximise views. The curtain track was cast into the slab with a radiused corner that creates a cave-like space at night when the curtains are closed. Simple glass walls separate the en-suites from the bedrooms, allowing the two spaces to share a larger volume. The stair connecting the two levels is also made from I-beams with 75mm thick Eucalyptus planks forming the treads.
