架构师提供的文本描述。这座房子作为一种光学仪器，一系列的装置，从南靠南的前滨向菲力浦湾港口的头部望去。最重要的步行街，以及房子本身，带你沿着一条缓缓的阶梯从街道上走到入口楼梯，当你到达最顶层的时候，它就足以让你欣赏到风景。这个序列的精心编排被物质和邻接放大了。精致的木材细腻的沿着小路，编织柳条在楼梯和卡拉卡塔大理石在厨房。进入的经验是私密的，并从外部茧。一旦在上面，视野扩大，集中在南面的海洋地平线上。

Text description provided by the architects. This house acts as an optical instrument, a series of devices that frame views beyond the abutting foreshore to the south toward the Heads of Port Phillip Bay.  The most significant promenade through the site, and house itself, takes you from the street along a gently stepped path to the entry stair which then elevates you sufficiently to appreciate the view as you arrive at the uppermost level.  The careful choreography of this sequence is amplified by materiality and adjacencies.  Fine timber detailing alongside the path, woven wicker within the stair and Calacatta marble in the kitchen.  The experience on entry is private and cocooned from the exterior.  Once above, the views expand and are focussed on the horizon of the ocean to the south.

维多利亚州海岸房屋面临的一个挑战是如何使南面的景色与北方的太阳方向相协调。在这种情况下，引入了一个庭院，以获得北方方面的生活空间，并捕捉下午的阳光，在一个环境中屏蔽了强大的南风。主卧室面向南，通过主起居亭和庭院，窃取海景。

A challenge for Victorian coastal houses is to reconcile the southern views with northern solar orientation. In this instance, a courtyard has been introduced to gain northern aspect to the living spaces and to capture the afternoon sun within an environment shielded from the strong southerlies. The principal bedroom is oriented south stealing ocean views through the main living pavilion and across the courtyard.

这所房子被精心规划，以便在狭小的地方让父母和成年孩子之间有隐私。主要的居住和就餐空间是家人和朋友聚在一起的地方。这样，这所房子是为繁忙的家庭生活而设计的，既允许隐私，也允许公共聚会。

The house is carefully zoned to allow for privacy between parents and adult children on a narrow site. The main living and dining space is where family and friends come together. In this way, the house is designed for a busy family life, allowing for both privacy and communal gathering.

内部与海洋之间的直接视觉联系鼓励船只在驶向遥远港口的途中横渡，这是一种放松的逃避工作的方式。

The direct visual connection between the interior and the sea encourages the contemplation of ships crossing the Heads en route to distant ports, a relaxing retreat from work.
