架构师提供的文本描述。三部分住宅是对一座1200平方米土地上的20世纪50年代熟料砖住宅的改造和补充。房子是由规划和概念划分为三个部分-灯笼，庭院和砖房。

Text description provided by the architects. Three Parts House is an alteration and addition to a 1950s clinker brick residence on a 1200sq.m block of land. The house is programmatically and conceptually divided into 3 parts – the Lantern, the Courtyard and the Brickhouse.

 Ground Floor Plan

灯笼是现有的2层部分的房子，它有规划，包括卧室，浴室，一个正式的客厅，以及入口。北面、西面和南面部分采用双层U形玻璃板玻璃，在现有屋顶和屋檐下，实现巨大的单跨立面。选择了8个不同的纹理和霜冻来包裹现有的结构，提供了触觉和不同的透光质量。这个外墙被一棵巨大的银杏树遮住了，天黑后，这座建筑变成了一个发光的灯笼。

The Lantern is the existing 2 storey part of the house, programmatically it contains the bedrooms, bathrooms, a formal living room, as well as the entry. The north, west and part of the south facade are glazed with double layered U-profile glass panels to achieve a large singular span façade for monumentality, under the existing roof and eaves. 8 varying textures and frostings were selected to wrap around the existing structure, providing tactility and varying light transmission quality. This façade is further shaded by a large growing Ginkgo tree, and after dark the building turns into a glowing lantern.

庭院是新旧之间的纽带，长廊和缝纫室构成了这一联系的一部分。中央庭院允许光线和空气渗透到建筑板块的深处。就像一座日本帝国别墅，多层推拉门和屏风改变了室内和室外的空间关系，将流通空间转化为庭院的延伸，或者在炎热的夏季，利用可伸缩的飞屏，创造出一条阴凉通风的通道。

The Courtyard is the link between the old and new, with the long corridor and sewing room forming part of this connection. This central courtyard allows light and air to penetrate into the depths of the building plate. Much like a Japanese Imperial villa, multiple layers of sliding doors and screen modify the spatial relationship between indoor and outdoor, transforming the circulation space into an extension of the courtyard, or using the retractable flyscreen to create a shaded, airy passageway on hot summer days.

我们设想这一空间将充斥着日夜的活动，与庭院的直接联系使它成为孩子们的完美选择。考虑到这一点，屏幕被漆成黑板和磁性底漆，这些成为儿童的涂鸦中心，激活了一个本来实用的过渡地带。

We envisage this space to be filled with a flurry of activity throughout day and night, the direct connection to the courtyard making it the perfect for the kids. With that in mind the screens are painted as chalkboard with magnetic undercoat, these become kids’ doodle central, activating an otherwise utilitarian transitional zone.

砖房是一个新的附加，一个空间的家庭，以及招待客人。它向庭院和后院开放，把两个室外空间放在一个屋檐下。当砖房延伸到院子里的时候，一块简单的砖墙边的遮阳屏障形成了墙壁，为地下室车库提供了通道和自然通风。这种常见但被遗忘的岩心洞图案创造了一个令人难忘和高度纹理的表面，同时，一个功能和呼吸的外观。

The Brickhouse is the new addition, a space for the family, as well as for entertaining guests. It opens to both the courtyard and the backyard, bringing the two outdoor spaces together under one roof. As the brickhouse extends into the courtyard, a simple brick-laid-on-edge brise-soleil screens form the walls, providing access and natural ventilation to the basement garage. This often seen but forgotten core-hole pattern creates a memorable and highly textured surface en masse, and at the same time, a functional and breathing façade.

我们对待物质的方法是开玩笑的和辩证法的。砖块的网格图案和U形玻璃的垂直直线与疯狂铺装的明塔罗石板地板并置；砖块的沉重与U形天井的轻盈形成对比；细木料贴面和豪华磨光的大理石被直接放置在未加工未完成的钢的旁边。

Our approach to materiality was playful and dialectic. The gridded pattern of the bricks and the straight vertical lines of the U-profile glazing are juxtaposed against the crazy paved Mintaro slate courtyard floor; the heaviness of the bricks was contrasted against the lightness of the U-profile glazings; fine timber veneers and luxurious honed marble are placed directly next to raw unfinished steel.

选择颜色是为了赞美家具，以白色为主作为背景。我们使用了客户最喜欢的颜色-黄色，点缀在整个房子里，并与其他黄色物品混合在一起-入口处的外套钉、遮阳篷、地毯、迪昂·霍斯特曼斯(Dion Horstman)的雕塑、洗脸盆、院子里的椅子、厨房橱柜和后院的猴子酒吧。这是一个有趣的旅程，邀请一个人加入点。

Colours were chosen to compliment the furnishings and predominantly white to act as a backdrop. We have used the client’s favourite colour – yellow, dotted throughout the entire house, and intermingling with other yellow objects – the entry coat peg, the awning, the rug, Dion Horstmans’s sculpture, basin mixers, chairs in the courtyard, the kitchen cupboards, and the monkey bar in the backyard. It is a playful journey that invites one to join the dots.
