从形式上说，建筑被简化为柏拉图式的体积或象征性和暗示性的形式，以满足室内的美学和功能要求。材料被选择用于纹理、耐久性、支持形式表达和愉悦业主和建筑师的审美情感。

Formally, the architecture is reduced to platonic volume or emblematic and suggestive forms which serve the aesthetic and functional requirements of the interiors.  Materials are chosen for texture, durability,to support the formal expression and to delight the owner’s and architect’s aesthetic sensibilities.

这座房子最有趣的地方可能是它的功能，它是它附近城市设计的一个组成部分。

What is perhaps most interesting about this house is it’s function as a component of urban design in it’s neighbourhood. 

由街道、车道和公园三面构成的高度裸露的场地，采用了建筑与城市设计相互支持的综合方式进行了大量的工作，面对公园和小巷的简朴、暗示的形式，为其在城市领域中的作用提供了实质性的存在、规模和质量上的契合。

The highly exposed site, bound by street, lane and park on three sides uses a mutually supportive synthesis of architecture and urban design to do a lot of work.  The austere and suggestive forms which face park and lane provide a substantial presence, appropriate in scale and quality for their role in the urban realm.

同时，这些形式为内部提供隐私，可以在地面的关键点从不透明到透明。

Simultaneously, these forms provide privacy to the interior which can be modulated at key points on the ground level from opaque to transparent.

遗址后面的一幅壮观的桉树是对该项目的一份礼物-建筑形式和项目坐落在它慷慨的檐篷下。这座建筑可能比树还长，但它的遗产将保留下来，并有望成为它的后继者。

A spectacular eucalypt at the rear of the site is a gift to the project – architectural form and program nestles under its generous canopy.The building might outlast the tree, but it’s legacy will remain and hopefully suggest its successor.
