架构师提供的文本描述。由于简报内容丰富，整个房子的形式需要推到信封的极限。当然，还有其他方面的考虑：邻近房屋的背景和邻近地区、日日的阳光路径和盛行的风。从概念上讲，这座房子是一根凸起的钢筋混凝土管，其开口端一般朝向南北方向。在这个地方，盛行的微风也从南部吹来，从附近的海岸线方向吹来。实际上，所有的房间都有一面墙，一面是东的，有的是西的，还有前面的，北的和南的。由于钢筋混凝土的固体质量，管状结构能抵抗东西向的热量增加，但通过开放的南北轴线鼓励被动冷却。北面和南面用木丝网进行处理，它们的贡献是多方面的。他们是隐私过滤器的卧室，是第一层眩光和太阳热还原后的空间。屏幕上的木鳍也可以有角度，以便在需要时捕捉微风或增加隐私。

Text description provided by the architects. As the brief was substantial, the overall form of the house needed to be pushed to the envelope limits. Naturally, there are also other considerations; the context and proximity of neighbouring homes, the daily sun path and the prevailing winds. Conceptually, the house is a raised reinforced concrete tube whose open ends are oriented in a general north-south direction. On this site, the prevailing breezes also blow in from the south, from the direction of the nearby coast line. In practice, all rooms have walls that side either east or west, and front north and south. The tubular structure resists east west heat gain thanks to the solid mass of the reinforced concrete but encourages passive cooling through the open north south axis. The north and south facades are treated with timber screens and their contribution is multifold. They are privacy filters for the bedrooms and are the first layer of glare and solar heat reduction to the spaces behind. The timber fins of the screen can also be angled so as to catch a breeze or to increase privacy as and when needed.

家庭聚会是一种日常活动，大型庆祝活动也为客户定期举行。第一层的设计是为了视觉上的膨胀和整洁，并鼓励混合空间，无论是通过花园，生活或餐饮。感知到的空间边界并不是在传统意义上的建筑上划定的，而是由沿着场地边界的一条狭小的多层柏树构成的一条士兵线来划定的。然而，在建筑上，树木提供了一个人做的墙无法达到的目的水平.它保护房子远离邻近的窗户，但其狭窄的脚印仍然允许阳光到达草地，同时腾出草坪上的空间供玩耍和聚会之用。然而，似乎不那么明显的是，多铝硫酸钠的音调实际上是蒸发的手指，每次风吹时都会梳理空气中的一些热量。游泳池集中放置在花园和生活之间，既是一个焦点中心，也是一个中央蒸发冷却表面。

Family gatherings are a daily occurrence, and large celebratory functions also feature regularly for the client. The first storey is designed to be visually expansive and uncluttered, and encourages the intermingling of space, whether one moves through the garden, living or dining. The perceived spatial boundary is not architecturally delineated in a traditional sense, but by a soldier-line of narrow polyalthia trees along the boundaries of the site. However, architecturally, the trees provide a level of purpose no man-made wall is able to. It shields the house from neighbouring windows but its narrow footprint still allows sun to reach the grass, while freeing up space on the lawn for play and parties. What may not seem so obvious though is that the tines of polyalthias are literally evaporative fingers, combing the air of some of its heat each time the wind blows. The swimming pool is placed centrally between garden and living both as a focal centre and also as a central evaporative cooling surface.
