架构师提供的文本描述。这座建于20世纪70年代的雪松屋，有着多门洞屋顶，这是一个典型的时代，当时的分层设计是建筑敏锐的高度。毫无疑问，布局有一定的迷宫般的吸引力，但一个房间的沃伦是不利于方便的家庭生活。

Text description provided by the architects. Built in the 1970s, this cedar-clad home with its multi-gabled roof was typical of an era when split-level design was the height of architectural acuity. Undoubtedly, the layout possessed a certain labyrinthian appeal, but a warren of rooms was not conducive to easy family living.

保持建筑的魅力和一些高质量的材料是这个广泛的两阶段改造的组成部分。其目的是要使空间更大，清理材料调色板，并在外部，重新呈现整体的群众和街道的吸引力的财产。

Retaining the charm of the building along with some quality materials was integral to this extensive two-stage alteration. The aim was to make the spaces bigger, to tidy up the material palette and, externally, to re-present the overall mass and street appeal of the property.

在第一阶段，室内重新定义，并增加了一个展馆，从中央核心下的一个新的褶皱屋顶下流动。这里有一个厨房，一个起居室，还有一个四分之三高的房间隔板后面，一个舒适的餐厅角落-这是对70年代风格的认可。沙克天花板和舌槽墙模仿了原始家庭的线性和温暖，而内置的家具，如橱柜、架子单元和贯穿外墙的早餐储藏室，则被设计成单独的空间元素。(鼓掌)

In Stage One, the interiors were re-defined, and a pavilion that flows out from the central core beneath a new fold of the roof was added. This houses a kitchen, living area and, behind a three-quarter height room divider, a cosy dining nook – a nod to that 70s style. Sarked ceilings and tongue-and-groove walls emulate the linearity and warmth of those in the original home, while built-in furniture such as cabinetry, shelving units and a breakfast pantry that juts through the external wall, are designed as separate elements in the space.

伪装山墙是第二阶段过程中的一个重要部分，这是一项微妙的平衡行动，既能使外观现代化，又能与邻近地区的殖民地别墅融合在一起。一个新的两层高的盒子与家庭的主要形式相交；它包含一个卧室和套房，下面有一个车库。这个立方体在建筑上是由细雪松制成的，这是一个重复的元素，用来隐藏住宅上层的主要山墙。一种有趣的物质流动是在花园围栏，它包裹着它的方式后，车库的盒子，重新出现作为覆层的地面水平的原始家园。

Disguising the gables was an important part of the Stage Two process, a delicate balancing act between modernising the look, yet melding in with the colonial villas of the neighbourhood. A new two-storey box intersects with the main form of the home; it contains a bedroom and en suite, with a garage below. This cube is defined architecturally by fine cedar battening, an element that is repeated to hide the main gable over the upper storey of the dwelling. A playful material fluidity is seen in the garden fence which wraps its way behind the garage of the box to reappear as cladding on the ground level of the original home.
