架构师提供的文本描述。分层边界

Text description provided by the architects. Layered Boundaries

这个项目带来了一个不寻常的挑战：一条公共人行道紧邻着房子的西边。它笨拙地从一条三米宽的道路从北边延伸到东边的仅仅七十厘米，延伸到工地的南角。如果在场地的边界上筑起围墙，以保护居民的隐私不受使用这条道路的许多过路人的影响，那么这条道路就会变得更加狭窄，更难让该地区的居民使用。

The project presented an unusual challenge: A public walkway ran adjacent to the western boundary of the house. It narrowed awkwardly from a three meter-wide road on approach from the north to a mere seventy centimeters on the eastern border to the southern corner of the site. If walls had been built to the boundary of the site to protect the residents’ privacy from the many passers-by who used this path, the path would narrow oppressively and become more difficult for the area’s residents to use.

取而代之的是，底层从边界向后倾斜，给人的印象是整个路径的宽度仍在继续。然后，房子的二楼被建在小路上，向外延伸到工地的边界及其与道路的边界。有一个有玻璃的入口区域，里面有一个鞋柜，似乎位于公共空间和私人空间之间的边界之外。它的位置让人想起一个公共汽车站，里面装着邻居带来的家具。

Instead, the ground floor was set back from the boundary to give space to the path and to give the impression that the full width of the path continued through. Then the second floor of the house was built back over the path, out to the boundary of the site and its border with the road. There is a glazed entrance area containing a shoe cabinet that appears to sit beyond the border between the public and private spaces. It sits reminiscent of a bus stop containing furniture brought there by neighbors.

这一跨越道路和场地边界的主题贯穿于整个房屋设计中。利用邻居的混凝土砌块墙的线条，在南面建造了一座新的砌块墙，穿过一个内部空间，成为一个储藏室的墙。这利用了最初在站点中发现的高度差异。

This theme of crossing borders between road and site is carried through the entire house design. Using the line of the neighbor’s concrete block wall, a new block wall has been built through to the south, crossing an interior space to become the wall of a storage space. This harnesses the height differences originally found in the site.

然后，存储空间上方的区域形成楼梯的落地，一楼的水平被调整为坐在楼梯上的桌子。这创造了一个空间，部分是一层和一张桌子之间的边界。从街道、一楼、内部和外部看上去都是横越的。

The area above the storage space then forms a landing for the stairs, and the level of the first floor has been adjusted to function as a desk sitting over the landing. This creates a space that is partly a border between a floor and partly a desk. Seen from the street, the ground floor, the first floor, and the interior and the exterior all appear to cross over.

上卷的内墙都是劳安胶合板，这创造了一个独特的空间，与底层形成鲜明对比，底层包含了各种各样的材料和特征。整个设计意味着一个不断发展的生活空间，其特征似乎超越了界限，但同时又控制着它们。

The interior walls of the upper volume are all Lauan Plywood, which creates a singular space that lives in clear contrast to the ground floor, which contains a variety of materials and features. The whole design suggests an evolving living space with features that appear to cross beyond boundaries yet control them at the same time.

获取匿名知识

Gaining anonymous knowledge

这种被称为“昆士兰人”的房子风格是一座有木制结构和阳台设计的高跷房子，专为澳大利亚昆士兰设计。虽然日本的一些研究人员对此进行了研究，但我对此知之甚少，直到我看到昆士兰州的房屋在从一层到两层建筑的改建和翻新过程中被拆除的照片。从那以后，我一直对这种风格的房子感兴趣。

The house style called a “Queenslander” is a stilt house with a wooden structure and a balcony design specific to Queensland in Australia. While some researchers in Japan have studied it, I had little knowledge of it until I encountered photographs of Queenslander houses being lifted during their conversion and renovation from one to two-story structures. Since then, I have been interested in the form of this style of house.

一个奇怪的巧合是，去年我收到了一位澳大利亚男子提出的设计他的房子的请求。2013年6月，我飞到那里进行现场研究，在那里我发现城市空间令人惊讶。我所看到的大多数昆士兰人都有凸起的屋顶，盖满了房子的所有外部空间。这些屋顶用波纹铁皮覆盖，涂上白色或银色，以反射热量。为了方便通风，这通常是困难的一个倾斜的屋顶，通风装置安装在顶部。在他们转换成两层楼的形式时，各种额外的房屋功能被建在被解除的卷下。

By a curious coincidence, last year I received a request from an Australian man to design his house. I flew there in June in 2013 for the site research, where I found the city space was surprising. Most of the Queenslanders I saw had hipped roofs with overhangs that covered all of the exterior space of the house. These roofs were clad in corrugated iron, painted white or silver to reflect the heat. To facilitate ventilation, which is normally difficult with a hipped roof, ventilators were installed on top. During their conversion to their two-story form, various additional house features were being built in under the lifted volumes.

这是一种设计解决方案，反映了我在设计这座房子时的想法，当时这座房子正在建造中。虽然我没有以昆士兰人为基础设计这座房子，但在设计我的建筑时，我从匿名前辈那里获得的知识有时让我感到鼓舞，他们不得不在时间和地区之外处理类似的问题。这是一个美妙的时刻，能够接触到一条完整的历史线，并从中积累知识。

It’s a design solution that mirrored my own thinking in the design of this house, which was under construction at that time. Although I haven’t designed this house based on the Queenslanders, while I design my architecture, I am sometimes encouraged by the knowledge I gain from anonymous predecessors who have had to deal with similar matters beyond time and regions. It is a wonderful moment to be able to touch an unbroken line of history in architecture and accumulate knowledge from it.

该计划是由一个网格定义的，其中四个方格稍微偏离了中心位置，一个改进的正方形倾斜屋顶是通过在中心抬高而形成的。该结构由125 mm×125 mm方钢柱和200 mm×100 m H截面钢梁组成。它通过刚度、低天花板高度和埋在地基中的柱基来实现其强度。在屋檐的边缘，插入小截面扁钢管，使钢萝卜在结构周围形成通道。底层的混凝土砌块墙，通过插入部分块孔的扁钢筋支撑，不设挡板。

The plan is defined by a grid, with four squares slightly shifted off center, and a modified square hipped roof formed by raising it at the center. The simple, slim rigid joint frame structure consists of 125mm×125mm square steel columns and 200mm×100m H section steel beams. It realizes its strength through its stiffness, by the low ceiling height and by the column bases buried in the foundation. On the edge of the eaves, small section flat steel pipes are inserted to channel the steel rafters around the structure. The concrete block wall on the ground floor stands without counterforts through the support of flat steel bars inserted into some of the block holes.
