架构师提供的文本描述。位于珠滩海岸，灌木丛与海岸交汇的地方，街区大厦是一种与世隔绝的逃生方式，旨在应对周围的环境。珍珠滩由两个海岸的海角组成，由北部和南部的桉树灌木丛和西边的热带雨林组成。从上下文上讲，这座房子与周围海角的砂岩峭壁和洞穴以及海滩上的巨浪有关，这反过来又会影响建筑物的形状和物质性。

Text description provided by the architects. Situated on the shore of Pearl Beach, an area where the bush meets the coast, the Block House is a secluded escape designed to respond to its surroundings. Pearl Beach is formed by two coastal headlands and is defined by eucalypt bush to the north and south and a rainforest to the west. Contextually the house relates to the sandstone cliffs and caves of the surrounding headlands and heavy waves on the beach, which in turn influence the form and materiality of the building.

内部庭院是由两个翅膀组成的，提供了一个外部围护免受强烈的陆上风。这个庭院不仅是一个供娱乐使用的私人避难所，而且可以在房子的所有空间内保持一致和有控制的通风和阳光通道。L形的单人房间规划使得室内和外部空间之间的移动保持通畅。

The internal courtyard is formed by two wings, providing an external enclosure protected from harsh onshore winds. The courtyard not only acts a private sanctuary for recreational use, but allows for consistent and controlled ventilation and sun access throughout all spaces in the house.  L-shaped single room planning allows movement between interior and exterior spaces to remain unobstructed.

原始和沉重的元素向周围的悬崖和洞穴致敬。一个简单的调色板所需的材料最低限度的维护和完成，以及精确的细节，创造了轻感的结构。

Raw and heavy elements pay homage to the surrounding cliffs and caves of the area. A simple palette of materials requiring minimal maintenance and finishes, along with precision in detailing, create the light sensibility of the structure.

可操作的立面层产生了房屋的透明度，在那里建立了视觉和物理连接到网站周围的特征。此外，滑动的木材百叶窗和空腔滑动的窗户和门允许空间无缝打开，模糊了内部和外部的界限。

Operable layers of the facade generate the transparency of the house where visual and physical connections are established to the surrounding features of the site. Furthermore, sliding timber shutters and cavity sliding windows and doors allow spaces to open seamlessly, blurring the demarcation between inside and outside.

该大厦坚持许多可持续的设计原则，包括被动冷却和供暖，外部木材百叶窗，地下通风，地热供暖和冷却，雨水收集，太阳能电池板和深思熟虑的放置天窗。

The Block House adheres to numerous sustainable design principles, including passive cooling and heating, external timber shutters, sub-floor ventilation, geothermal heating and cooling, rainwater harvesting, solar panels and thoughtfully placed skylights.

可操作的木材百叶窗和低e双层玻璃提供保护，免受外部条件的波动，并与热集中的材料一起工作，以处理高的白天温度范围。

The operable timber shutters and low-e double glazing provide protection from fluctuating external conditions, and work in unison with thermally massed materials to deal with high diurnal temperature ranges.

结果是一系列精心设计的空间形成了一座房子，以此来庆祝在海滩上生活的行为。

The outcome is a thoughtful sequence of meticulously crafted spaces forming a house that celebrates the act of living on the beach.
