架构师提供的文本描述。在狭窄的小巷和华盛顿湖之间压缩，这个项目是在谈判的竞争要求的前景和避难。业主们要求有一个舒适的现代住宅，有一种隐私感，以及室内和室外之间的无缝连接。

Text description provided by the architects. Compressed between a narrow lane and Lake Washington, this project is an exercise in negotiating the competing demands of prospect and refuge. The owners asked for a welcoming modern home with a sense of privacy and seamless connection between indoors and out.

德林建筑师以一层主楼层作为回应，这一层从私人进入的庭院流过这间大房间，来到了一系列的海滨娱乐空间。从地板到天花板的升降滑动门和隐藏的钢结构，最大限度地扩大了开放性的感觉。在较高的层，一个通道玻璃的长度，提供隐私，同时允许自然光，提供一瞥庭院和一个绿色的屋顶。四间卧室中的每一间都可以看到湖面和私人甲板，甚至客人的浴室和洗衣都是由地板到天花板的通道玻璃照明。

DeForest Architects responded with a main floor that flows from private entry courtyard through the great room and out to a series of waterfront entertaining spaces. Floor-to-ceiling lift-slide doors and hidden steel structure maximize the sense of openness. At the upper level, a band of channel glass running the length of the house affords privacy while admitting natural light and providing glimpses of the courtyard and a green roof. Each of the four bedrooms has a view of the lake and private deck and even the guest bath and laundry are daylit by floor-to-ceiling channel glass.

This home demonstrates that modern design can embrace seeming opposites -- dramatic and nuanced, enfolding and expansive, comfortable and elegantly contemporary.
