架构师提供的文本描述。起点是一座独特而有尊严的建筑，经过一系列翻修，建筑变得支离破碎，残缺不全。剩下的是最初的遗产建筑的短暂的生命体验，它延伸到了一个没有特征的现代延伸。其用意有两方面，一是延长和巩固原有建筑的经验，将正式走廊延伸至第三湾，并在整个过程中恢复原有的天花板高度和遗产细节。第二，用清晰的门限勾勒出现代的部分，创造出一种新的建筑，它将改变现有的泛型扩展，成为新的室内和室外生活区域的灵魂。

Text description provided by the architects. The starting point was a unique and dignified building which had been left fragmented and incomplete by an series of renovations. What remained was a short lived experience of the original heritage building which bled into a characterless modern extension. The intention was two-fold, firstly to lengthen and consolidate the experience of the original building by extending the formal corridor to a third bay, and restoring the original ceiling height and heritage detail throughout. Secondly to delineate the modern part with a clear threshold and create a new architecture that would transform the existing generic extension and become the soul of the new indoor and outdoor living areas.

一旦通过正式的走廊，过渡到现代部分的建筑物是一个洪水般的灯光和一个新的厨房/餐厅/生活区开放。厨房一开始是一个白色的大理石板，坐在一张厚重的木桌上，上面放着煤气炊具。餐桌从大理石下面一直延伸到就餐区，持续约7.5米，并创造了优雅的形式。这取代了正式餐桌上15人的姿态。在一端，厨房通向一个预备厨房和储藏室，在就餐端，厨房长凳下降得更低，成为一个与餐桌平行运行的缓冲座椅，以容纳晚宴上的旋转对话。最后，桌子通向北面花园的双门。这种安排在风格上和实践上都把厨房、膳食、就餐和生活放在一起，作为非正式和公共聚会的姿态，就像人们在农舍厨房里可能体验到的那样。大理石纹路在每个潮湿地区都会继续，以庆祝日常烹饪、清洁和洗涤的仪式，并通过这种古老的材料与维多利亚时代的人建立联系。黑钢创造了对维多利亚时代流行的钢铁细节的引用，新语言的其他各个部分被放入遗产内部，将这两个不同的部分结合在一起。

Once through the formal corridor, the transition into the modern part of the building is marked by a flood of light and the openness of a new kitchen/ dining/ living area. The kitchen begins as a white marble slab sitting on a heavy timber table and holds the gas cook-top. The dining table continues unbroken from beneath the marble into the dining area, running for approximately 7.5 metres, and creating an elegant formality. This replaces the gesture of the formal dining table seating a generous 15 people. At one end the kitchen leads into a prep kitchen and larder and at the dining end the kitchen bench drops lower, and becomes a cushioned seat running parallel to the dining table to accommodate a revolving conversation at dinner parties. Finally the table leads to doubles doors opening onto a north facing garden. This arrangement, stylistically and practically brings the kitchen, meals, dining and living together in a gesture of informal and communal gathering, as one might experience in a farmhouse kitchen.The marble plinth continues in each of the wet areas celebrating the daily rituals of cooking, cleaning and washing and creating associations with the Victorian through this age old material. Black steel creates a reference to the steel detail prevalent in the Victorian era, and various other parts of the new language are dropped into the heritage interior to bind the two distinct parts together.

原来的两层楼的质量是向花园开放的，在地面上有一条新的玻璃线，第一层被概念化为在其底部覆盖着木料的盒子，并在一个连续的地面上盘旋。外部新元素包括一个新的阳台和藤蔓覆盖娱乐区。珀戈拉坐在一个木甲板上，悬挑在游泳池上，形成了一个像游泳馆一样的泻湖，在那里，人们可以坐在甲板的边缘，腿在水里，在斑驳的阴影下躲避夏季的酷暑。水包围甲板，捕捉倒影，增加感官体验。

The original two storey mass is opened up to the garden with a new glazing line at ground level, amd the first floor is conceptualised as box clad in timber on its underside, and hovering over a continuous ground plane. Externally new elements include a new balcony and vine covered entertaining area. The pergola sits over a timber deck and cantilevers over the pool to create a swimming-hole-like lagoon, where at the edges of the deck one might sit with their legs in the water under dappled shade to escape the summer heat. Water surrounds the deck, catching reflections and adding to the sensory experience.

这片绿地的主题和Pergola的语言来自一楼阳台，这使得孩子的卧室和娱乐室能够开放和欣赏花园和北面。阳台是由藤蔓覆盖的桁架构成，使下面的开口有清晰的跨度。龙骨采用与桁架相同的对角线，支撑结构，并在柱连接处形成一个几乎花的图案。总的来说，这些新部件以一种正式的、几乎是装饰性的方式表达了它们的结构功能，创造了一种与维多利亚式装饰理念相一致的现代连续性。

The theme of this green space and language of the pergola is drawn from the first floor balcony, which enables the kid’s bedrooms and entertaining rooms to open up and appreciate the garden and northerly aspect. The balcony is formed as a vine covered truss which enables clear span of the opening below. The pergola utilises the same diagonals as the truss which brace the structure and form an almost floral motif at the column junctions. Overall the new components express their structural function in a formal and almost decorative manner creating a modern continuity with the idea of Victorian decoration.
