架构师提供的文本描述。现有的房子处于破旧状态，需要进行大量的维修工作。在我们与伊斯灵顿委员会的初步规划谈判中，我们同意恢复被拆除的传统海湾窗口，这为获得大量当代后方扩建的许可铺平了道路。

Text description provided by the architects. The existing house was in a run down state and required considerable repair work. In our initial planning negotiations with Islington Council, we agreed to reinstate the traditional bay window that had been removed and this eased the way to getting permission for a substantial contemporary rear extension.

改造后的房子能容纳五口之家。一楼已完全开放成一个单一的开放式空间，将客厅、厨房、餐厅和花园连接在一起。厨房位于家庭的中心，允许家庭在整个空间相互交流。地板和天花板的水平不同，以改变规模和比例内的主要体积。

The remodeled house accommodates a family of five. The ground floor has been completely opened up into a single open plan space linking living room, kitchen, dining and garden together. The kitchen is placed at the heart of the home allowing the family to interact with one other across the space. The floor and ceiling levels vary to alter the scale and proportion within the main volume.

巨大的天窗，厨房和餐厅的上方，为家庭的中心带来了光明，创造了一种户外和与外界环境相结合的感觉，这对家庭来说是很重要的。这种自然光的使用在整个房子里，在连接花园的浴缸上的长窗里，在套房的浴室和主卧室里，使用更多的天窗创造了在星空下洗澡和睡觉的感觉。

Large skylights the over the kitchen and dining spaces bring light right into the heart of home and creates a feeling of being outdoors and at one with the outside environment which was important to the family. This use of natural light is continued throughout the house, in the long slot window over the bath connecting to the garden and in the en-suite bathroom and master bedroom where use of more skylights creates the feeling of showering and sleeping under the stars.

家庭环境与室外的这种连接被材料的调色板进一步加强-抛光的混凝土地板通过可伸缩的玻璃门无缝地从里面延伸到花园。厨房和客人厕所的公用空间被安置在Iroko板条墙后面，这感觉就像边界围栏的延伸，进一步模糊了内外边界。

This connection of the domestic environment to the outdoors is further reinforced by the palette of materials – the polished concrete floor runs seamlessly from inside to the garden through retractable glass doors. The utility spaces for the kitchen and the guest toilet are housed behind an Iroko slatted wall, which feels like an extension of the boundary fence further blurring the boundary between inside and outside.

折叠的几何面是空间的一个重要特征，允许日光进入房屋深处。阳光从一个有角的屏幕上反射出来，屏幕被涂成白色，并将光线反射到天花板和客厅。对人工照明的依赖保持在最低限度。

The folded geometrical planes are an important feature of the space and allow daylight to enter deep into the house. Sunlight bounces off an angled screen, which is painted white and reflects light onto the ceiling and into the living room. Reliance on artificial lighting is kept to a minimum.

我们与客户密切合作，以满足他们的具体要求，房子有许多特殊的特点和要素的定制设计，即：

We worked closely with the clients to meet their specific requirements and the house has many special features and elements of bespoke design namely:

西红雪松太阳百叶窗外面的浴室是专门制作的，创造了隐私，他们可以旋转和打开像大门，以便进入下面的天窗清洁。

The Western Red Cedar Brise Soleil shutters outside the bathroom were specially made and create privacy, they can be rotated and opened like gates in order to access the skylights below for cleaning.

我们在现有的砖上使用了绝缘渲染系统，用高性能的绝缘渲染来覆盖现有的渲染层，提高了现有外壳的热性能。这是与双釉面传统窗框和高性能双层铝窗结合使用的现代延伸-进一步降低了能源消耗。客户亲切地把粉红的父亲̧ade称为房子的运动衫。

We used an insulated render system over the existing brick, overcladding the existing render layer with a high performance insulated render increasing thermal performance of the existing envelope. This was used in conjunction with double glazed traditional sash windows and high performance double glazed aluminum windows to the modern extension – further reducing energy bills. The client lovingly refers to the pink façade as the house’s jersey.

我们在地板上使用抛光混凝土，旁边是地板加热系统。这样我们就可以利用混凝土板内的热质量，长期储存热量，减少用于加热空间的能量。

We used polished concrete on the floors alongside an underfloor heating system. This allowed us to take advantage of the embodied thermal mass within the concrete slab, which stores heat for long periods decreasing the amount of energy used to heat the spaces.

天窗和LED照明-我们使用大面积的头顶玻璃，以带来室内的自然光，减少了对人工照明的依赖。我们使用条形LED照明，这得益于低能耗的使用，加上一个长寿命的灯系统，也创造了温暖和漫射的光在内部。

Skylights and LED lighting - we used large expanses of overhead glazing to bring natural light indoors reducing reliance on artificial lighting. We used strip LED lighting, which benefits from low energy use alongside a longlife lamp system also creating a warm and diffuse light in the interiors.

 Proposed Ground Floor Plan

拟议底层图则

Iroko包层-房子的底层被分割成“服务和仆人”的空间。厨房的公用空间，包括冰箱、储藏室、洗衣房和客人厕所，都被整齐地隐藏在一堵伊罗科墙后面，给家里更多的公共空间提供了一个层次结构。

Iroko cladding - The ground floor of the house is broken up into ‘served and servant’ spaces. The utility spaces for the kitchen including the fridge, freezer, pantry, laundry and guest toilet are all hidden neatly behind an iroko wall giving a hierarchy to the more public spaces of the home.
