这个空间总是与外部有直接的关系，在上层也有它的对应关系，它同时也是私人空间的主人，同时也是空间的定义。

This space is always in direct relation with the exterior, and has its counterpart in the upper level which hosts the private area which at the same time defines the space.

我们力求拥有尽可能大的外部空间，总是与有覆盖过渡空间的公共区域相关。

We sought to have the greatest exterior area possible always related to the public area with a covered transitional space.

该项目解决了离开底层无结构，创造了一个连续和透明的空间，并不断与外部对话。有盖的露台作为内部和外部之间的空间。

The project was solved leaving the ground floor free of structure, generating a continuous and transparent space which is in constant dialogue with the exterior. A covered terrace works as the space in between inside and outside.

私人区域集中在上层，这使得这个空间具有特定的结构。这个空间被更多的定义，作为房子的结构。

The private area is concentrated in the upper level which makes this space have a particular configuration. This space is more defined and works as the house’s structure.
