架构师提供的文本描述。Power House是保罗·阿彻设计公司(Paul Archer Design)在伦敦北部海布里(Highbury)对一所私人住宅的翻新工程，它将一座典型的伦敦维多利亚式梯田式住宅的现代化建设推向了一个新的方向。

Text description provided by the architects. Power House, Paul Archer Design’s refurbishment of a private house in Highbury North London, takes the modernisation of a typical London Victorian terraced house in a new direction with a highly sculptural timber clad rear extension.

坐落在靠近阿森纳足球俱乐部在海布里山的原始体育场入口处，房子以前是球场的操场人的家。房子的前门涂上了枪手家装的红色签名，以示对房子历史的认可。

Located in close proximity to the entrance of Arsenal Football Club’s original stadium on Highbury Hill, the house was previously the home of the stadium’s grounds man. The front door of the house is painted in the signature red of the Gunner’s home kit as a nod to the house’s history.

新房子的焦点是一间宽敞的双高厨房/餐厅，它是由无框玻璃板和线状木板组成的联锁体积相互作用而形成的。

The focal point of the new house is a spacious double height kitchen/ diner at the rear of the property, which is created from the interplay of interlocking volumes made of frameless glass panels and linear timber panels.

结构玻璃盒允许阳光直射到计划的深处。延伸部分的上层铺上了一层道格拉斯冷杉的皮，里面和外面都是外涂层和内墙衬里，强调了体积之间的相互作用。包层部分延伸到玻璃上，在光线上形成图案并提供阴影。

A structural glass box allows direct sunlight to penetrate deep into the plan. The upper floors of the extension are clad with a skin of Douglas fir battens, which run both inside and out as exterior cladding and interior wall lining, emphasising the interplay between volumes. The cladding extends partially over the glass, patterning the light and providing shading.

在原来的房子下面已经建立了一个全新的一层楼。这有一个开放的计划，各种活动-烹饪、就餐和放松-都可以同时在有利于21世纪家庭生活的安排中进行。全玻璃折叠门可直接进入花园甲板。

A whole new ground floor level has been created beneath the original house. This has an open plan where a variety of activities – cooking, dining and relaxing – can all take place simultaneously in an arrangement that is conducive to 21st century family living. Fully glazed folding doors give direct access to the garden deck.

在一楼音乐/游戏室的尽头墙上有一个玻璃板，可以俯瞰主空间，将光线注入原来的房子，并将两个空间连接起来。当需要隐私时，一扇有玻璃的滑动门关闭了空间。

A glass panel at the end wall of the first floor music/playroom creates a balcony overlooking the main space, flooding light into the original house and making a connection between the two spaces. A glazed sliding door closes off the space when privacy is required.

木材在这座房子里发挥了惊人的作用，它丰富了该方案的各个方面，从标志性线状覆层、外部装饰、室内地板、伪装成墙壁和长椅的存储空间，以及一个带早餐酒吧的岛屿单元，管理着厨房的长度。儿童游戏室内建的带有折叠桌子的架子因其鲜艳的绿色而引人注目，为整个房子使用的天然木材提供了强大的对立面。

Wood is put to striking effect in this house and is abundant in all aspects of the scheme from the signature linear cladding, external decking, interior floors, storage spaces disguised as walls and bench seating, and an island unit with breakfast bar that runs the length of the kitchen. The built-in shelving with fold down desks in the children’s playroom is made conspicuous by its bright green hues, providing a strong counterpoint to the natural wood used throughout the house.

该计划的灵感来自于客户对户外的热爱和对北欧设计的品味。它展示了如何将自然光和材料结合起来，为简单而时尚的当代家具创造一个背景。

The scheme was inspired by the clients' love of the outdoors and a taste for Nordic design. It demonstrates how natural light and materials can be combined to create a backdrop for simple yet stylish contemporary furnishings.
