架构师提供的文本描述。这套阁楼公寓坐落在19世纪末的一栋房子里，它提出了一个有趣的挑战：如何恢复起居室的优雅比例，同时利用早期的改造所提供的可能性，即插入中间层。

Text description provided by the architects. This loft apartment located in a late 19th century house presents an interesting challenge: how to recover the graceful proportions of the living room while taking advantage of the possibilities offered by an earlier alteration which had inserted intermediate levels.

主人是一位商业主管和动物奖杯收藏家，他想要一个空间，让他能够展示他不断增长的藏品，并增强它的影响力。他还想要一个有质量的家，远离频繁的商务旅行。较低的层次是一个娱乐的空间-它的公共性质突出了一个大的开放空间。这一级别还包括一个完整的厨房调和作为一个极简主义的岛屿。

The Owner is a business executive and collector of animal trophies who wanted a space that would allow him to display his growing collection and enhance its impact. He also wanted a home with the quality of a retreat from his frequent business travels. The lower level is a space for entertaining—its public character underlined by a large open space.  This level also includes a full kitchen reconceived as a minimalist island.

楼梯就变成了一个高过下层的开放式钢结构。楼上有两个线性套房-一个是起居室、媒体套房、客人卧室和浴室；另一个是主卧室、浴室、梳妆台和公共设施区。起居室里有第二个附属厨房，这一次是一个单独的低矮橱柜。

The stair then becomes an open steel structure which flies above the lower level.  The upper level contains two linear suites—one containing living, media and guest bedroom and bath; the other, the master bedroom, bath, dressing and utility areas.  The living area contains a second satellite kitchen, this time developed as a single run of low cabinets.

卧室和其他空间是由玻璃枢轴门隔开的，这些门的设计大部分时间都是开放的。客房实际上只是一个壁龛-床和壁橱都是定制设计的内设。

The bedrooms are separated from the other spaces by glazed pivot doors which are designed to be left open most of the time.  The guest bedroom is really only an alcove--both the bed and the closet are custom-designed built-ins.

主卧室套房的两端都有不寻常的空间-一个是带大蒸汽淋浴、高耸的镜子和橱柜的浴缸，另一个是一个带镜子墙和门的大型更衣室。该单位的色彩方案是普遍白色的墙壁，地板和天花板。木梁和几个钢元素提供了颜色的口音。

The master bedroom suite is anchored on either end by unusual spaces—on one by a bath with a large steam shower and soaring mirror and cabinetry, on the other by a large dressing room with a mirrored wall and door. The color scheme for the unit is universally white for the walls, floors and ceilings. The wooden beams and several steel elements provides the color accents.
