架构师提供的文本描述。这是一个复式公寓的改造项目，在一个有85年历史的四口之家。由于他们没有在阿姆斯特丹长大，那里有很多阴沉的天气，他们的要求是在房子里有最大限度的阳光。他们也希望有一个空间，他们可以感觉到对方。

Text description provided by the architects. This is a renovation project of a duplex unit in an 85-year-old housing for a family of four. Since they have not been brought up in Amsterdam where they have a lot of gloomy weather, their request was to have maximum sunlight in the house. And also they want to have a space where they can feel each other.

最初，楼梯顶部有一个天窗，连接上下两层。虽然楼梯本身充满了来自天窗的阳光，但周围的楼梯和墙壁阻止光线进入房子的另一部分。我们拿走了楼梯、墙壁和上层楼板的一部分，这样阳光就可以照射到整个房子里。同时，空虚也连接着家庭。

Originally, there is a skylight at the top of staircase which connects upper and lower floors. Though the staircase itself was filled with sunlight coming from the skylight, the stairs and walls around them prevent the light from entering into the other part of the house. We took away the stairs, walls and a part of the upper floor’s slab, so that the sunlight can spread into all over the house. At the same time, the void connects the family.

有一个象征性的塔状的元素站在整个房子。厨房、浴室和厕所被挤进塔内，利用现有的管道箱。我们在塔周围安装了新的格栅楼梯，在不同的层次上创造了一个停留的地方。有了新的流通和空间装置，家庭就可以创造和享受他们日常生活中的各种场景。

There is a symbolic tower-shaped element standing through the house. Kitchen, bathroom and toilets are packed into the tower, utilizing existing pipe box. We placed new grating stairs climbing around the tower to create some place to stay at various levels. With the new circulation and spatial device, the family can create and enjoy various scenes of their daily life.
