架构师提供的文本描述。就在史蒂文斯的路上，这是禅宗启发的住宅与强大的建筑线和形状，进一步强调了所使用的材料。前区由两个主要卷组成，包括居住区和正式就餐区等社交场所，而服务功能则与厨房一起放在后面。虽然在视觉上相似，但这些街区都是以纹理来区分的-社会活动街区是用花岗岩覆盖的，而服务街区则是面向车费的混凝土。

Text description provided by the architects. Just off Stevens Road is this Zen-inspired dwelling with strong architectural lines and shapes that are further accentuated by the materials used. Comprising two main volumes, the front block houses the social spots, such as the living and formal dining areas, whilst service functions are relegated to the back, along with the kitchen. Although visually similar, the blocks are distinguished by texture – the social activity block is clad in granite and the service block in fare-faced concrete.

 First Floor Plan

一层平面图

设计概要要求底层的所有空间形成一个有凝聚力的整体，以便当底层的所有门都打开时，各个空间合并为一个整体-从入口的膝池和花园开始，到前厅的起居室，一直到后面的厨房。

The design brief called for all spaces on the ground floor to form a cohesive whole so that when all doors are open on the ground floor, the individual spaces merge into a one – starting from the lap pool and garden at the entrance, to the living room in the front block and all the way to the kitchen in the rear block.

一个反射池将两个主要街区隔开，坐落在一个三层高的空隙的底部，这个空洞一直延伸到屋顶。这一空隙形成了家庭的视觉和空间中心，也作为一种方法来绘制热风，使较冷的空气可以冲进来，以保持较低的温度。

A reflective pool divides the two main blocks and sits at the base of a sheer three-storey-high void that reaches the roof. This void forms the home’s visual and spatial centre and also works as a means of drawing up hot air so that the cooler air can rush in to keep temperatures low.

主卧室位于主要社交空间的二楼，而主浴室和儿童卧室则在后面。在阁楼上面是一个额外的卧室和数量的多用途空间。毗邻的梯田和露天甲板，在人工草地中，使屋顶成为一个有趣的空间，在那里，室内和室外空间之间的线是模糊的。

The master bedroom sits on the second floor of the main social volume, whilst the master bathroom as well as the children’s bedrooms are to the back. In the attic floor above is an additional bedroom and number of multipurpose spaces. Adjoining terraces and open decks lined in artificial grass make the rooftop an interesting space where lines between indoor and outdoor space are blurred.
