澳大利亚总理官邸的比赛是在沃尔特·伯里·格里芬斯(Walter Burley Griffins)为澳大利亚首都堪培拉(Canberra)赢得设计一周年之际举行的。我们的历史研究显示，堪培拉的计划，一个轴心对称的城市，安排在一个人造湖周围，灵感来自查尔斯库尔特早先提出的一个鲜为人知的提议。库尔特把他的首都坐落在乔治湖的海岸上。乔治湖是一个天然湖泊，由地下蓄水层补给，神秘地以不可预测的间隔洪水和排空。

The competition for the Australian Prime Minister's official residence was held on the anniversary of Walter Burley Griffins' winning design for Canberra, Australia's capital city. Our historical research revealed that the plan for Canberra, an axial and symmetrical city arranged around a man made lake, was inspired by an earlier and little known proposal by Charles Coulter. Coulter sited his capital city on the shores of Lake George, a natural lake that - fed by subterranean aquifers - mysteriously floods and empties at unpredictable intervals.

这是一座充满洪水和空荡荡的房子，它的空间和房间被水的涨落所掩盖或显露出来。从湖的深处雕刻出来，房子的景观定期被淹没和回收。当海岸线向前移动和后退时，对称和反射就会出现并消失。正如阿基米德的原则一样，池水总是等于其他地方的排水量。

This is a house that floods and empties, its spaces and rooms shrouded or revealed by the water's ebb and flow. Carved out of the lake's depth, the house's landscape is periodically inundated and reclaimed. Symmetries and reflections emerge and dissipate as the shore­ line advances and recedes. As in Archimedes' principle, the pooling water is always equal to the volume displaced elsewhere.

在查尔斯·库尔特1901年的水彩画中，第一次瞥见了澳大利亚未来的首都。就像海市蜃楼一样，库尔特的威尼斯城市出现在乔治湖的海岸上。地点的选择是很奇怪的：由一个隐藏的源头，神秘的湖泊排水和填充在不可预测的间隔。几年后，测量员查尔斯·罗伯特·斯克里韦纳(CharlesRobertScrivener)将国会大厦安置在莫隆洛河(Molonglo River)在库尔特的启发下，斯克里文纳大胆地提议对摩龙罗河进行筑坝，以建造自己的人工湖，为内陆城市提供一个观赏性的环境和一个安全的水库。

Australia's future capital city was first glimpsed in Charles Coulter's 1901 watercolour drawing. Like a mirage, Coulter's Venetian city materialized on the shores of Lake George. The choice of location was curious: fed by a hidden source, the mysterious lake drains and fills at unpredictable intervals. A few years later, surveyor Charles Robert Scrivener sited the capitol within the Molonglo River floodplain. Inspired by Coulter, Scrivener audaciously proposed that the Molonglo be dammed to create its own artificial lake, providing both an ornamental setting and a secure reservoir for the inland city.

继承斯克里维纳的概念，狮鹫从湖的消极空间中提炼出堪培拉的计划。海岸线被淹没在精确的平衡周围的山峰。在现实与虚拟、自然与人为的交汇处，格里芬夫妇理想的城市规划为新国会大厦的每一个元素提供了一个地方。

Inheriting Scriviner's concept, the Griffins extracted Canberra's plan from the negative space of the lake. The line of the shore was drown in precise equilibrium with the constel­lation of surrounding peaks. Inscribed at the intersection of the physical and virtual, the natural and man made, the Griffins' ideal city plan promised a place for each and every element of the new capitol.

这场比赛要求首相的小屋搬迁到伯里格里芬湖的一个地点，在那里它通过对称的轴线和辐射的几何图形连接在水面上的其他巨石结构。作为一个聚会与独处、抵达与背井离乡、礼仪之邦和家庭生活的地方，酒店既是私人住宅，也是公共机构。我们的建议是利用湖泊本身的波动来表达和调节这些二元关系。

This competition calls for the relocation of the Prime Minister's Lodge to a site at Lake Burley Griffin, where it joins the other monumental structures connected across water by symmetrical axes and radiating geometries. A place of gathering and solitude, arrival and depar­ture, formality and domesticity, the Lodge is both private residence and public institution. Our proposal is to use the fluctuations of the lake itself to express and regulate these duali­ties.

上议院占领山顶，主持洛奇的正式活动。在山脚下，下议院容纳私人住宅和客人套房。上议院是一个象征性的住宅，它的会议空间和功能室是面向堪培拉的地标。预制和模块化，线性下院可以扩大或收回其居民认为合适。防御工事区藏在山的深处。

Occupying the crest of the hill, the Upper House hosts the official activities of the Lodge. At the base of the hill, the Lower House accommodates the private residence and guest suites. The Upper House is a symbolic dwelling, its meeting spaces and function rooms are oriente­d to views of Canberra's landmarks. Prefabricated and modular, the linear Lower House can be extended or retracted as its inhabitants see fit. The defensible zone is hidden deep within the hill.

湖面下有一个宏伟的仪式空间。仅用于特殊活动，这个空间是通过排水和淹没土地内的水来揭示出来的。受毛细血管作用的影响，排水量淹没了沿前滨的公共木板通道，并掩盖了下议院的私人空间。湖水也可以被吸到上议院并蒸发成云层，保护阿通加点免受卫星监视、无人机袭击或狗仔队的威胁。

Poised beneath the lake's surface is a grand ceremonial space. Used only for special events, this space is revealed by draining the water within and flooding the land. Con­veyed by capillary action, the displaced water submerges access to a public boardwalk along the foreshore and conceals the private spaces of the Lower House. Lake water can also be sucked up to the Upper House and vaporized into a cloud, shielding Attunga Point from the threat of satellite surveillance, drone strike or paparazzi.
