架构师提供的文本描述。坐落在旧金山的多洛雷斯公园之上的一个陡峭的地点，毗邻一个公共花园，明确的小房子，只有1800平方英尺(只有1800平方英尺)建立在这个陡峭的地段尽可能有效。

Text description provided by the architects. Located above San Francisco’s Dolores Park on a steep site bordering a public garden, the decidedly small house, (only 1800 square feet) builds on this steep lot as efficiently as possible.

彼得的房子位于一个24英尺高的地方，而不是在山坡上交错地布置地基的典型施工方法。x 24英尺在最底层浇铸混凝土车库，并在上面建造一座3层的玻璃塔，几乎没有改变土地和乡间山坡排水的效果。

Rather than the typical construction practice of locating foundations staggered up the hillside, Peter’s house locates a 24 ft. x 24 ft. cast-in-place concrete garage at the lowest level and builds a 3-story glass tower above it, altering the land and native hillside drainage very little.

顶层的起居层从地块顶部的平坦高原延伸到塔楼，就像一座桥，从本质上说，这类建筑所涉及的开挖量减少了2/3。

The top living floor then spans from a flat plateau at top of the lot to the tower like a bridge, essentially reducing the amount of excavation typically involved in construction of this type by 2/3.

除了结构上的挑战，彼得的房子设计中最大的问题是把这栋建筑开放到开阔的视野中，同时保持人行道和旁边花园的高度隐私。

Beyond the structural challenges, the biggest issue in designing Peter’s house was opening the building to the expansive view while maintaining a level of privacy from the sidewalk and garden that pass alongside.

在房子被设计的时候，通往金门大桥的新入口正在建设中，因此有必要清理蒙特利柏树的一片树林，从普雷西迪奥(Presidio)到金门大桥。我们保护了其中一些树木，并与当地的一家铣削店合作，将它们变成90个实木百叶窗(固定在外部/内部可操作)，以规范开放性和隐私。

Around the time the house was being designed, the new on-ramp to the Golden Gate Bridge was under construction which necessitated clearing a grove of Monterey Cypress trees in it’s path from the Presidio.  We secured some of these trees and working with a local milling shop turned them into 90 solid wood louvers (fixed on the exterior/operable on the interior) that regulate openness and privacy.
