架构师提供的文本描述。苏打宫是建筑师的房子。这是一个私人岛屿，在阿姆斯特丹以南的水道交汇处。这是一片珍贵的未被破坏的沼泽景观，就在城外开放。如果当前快速城市化的趋势继续下去，它将很快成为荷兰这一地区最后一块具有特色的荷兰景观之一。这是这个特定地点的选择，也就是对景观的感知，这决定了设计的特点。根据掩体的原理-看而不看-房子作为一个巨大的物体放置在景观中，沉入草丛中。虽然它看起来与周围的环境紧密相连，但它优化了四周重要的周边景观，以一种全景的方式感知景观。在此过程中，它充分利用了祖达斯商业区的远处建筑、阿姆斯特丹东南的“摩天大楼”以及往返机场的飞机的景色。

Text description provided by the architects. The SODAE-House is the house of the architect. The site is a private island at an intersection of waterways, south of Amsterdam. It is one of the precious pieces of unspoiled polder landscape, left open just outside the city. If the current trend of rapid urbanisation continues, it will soon be one of the last pieces of characteristic Dutch landscape in this part of the Netherlands. It is the choice of this particular spot, that is to say the perception of the landscape, which has dictated the character of the design. According to the principle of a bunker – to see but not to be seen – the house is placed as a massive object in the landscape, sunk into the grass. While it seems hermetically sealed from its surroundings, it optimises important circumstantial views on all sides, perceiving the landscape in a panoramic way. In doing so, it takes full advantage of the distant buildings of the Zuidas business area, the ‘skyscrapers’ southeast of Amsterdam as well as views of the aircrafts travelling to and from the airport.

简单的房屋形式源于对建筑法规的创造性解释。必须在两边使用倾斜屋顶，目的是使房屋符合传统风格，使创新设计几乎不可能。然而，通过以不同的方式适用这些规则，形成了一种新的和当代的形式。这房子有三层楼。起居室和厨房布置在一楼类似阁楼的空间中，从而从最好的景色中获益。比较亲密的区域(卧室和浴室)位于底层，朝向后面的花园。地下室有一个额外的节目，如健身室和家庭影院。

The simple form of the house originates from the creative interpretation of the building regulations. The obligatory use of sloping roofs on two sides, intent with making houses conform to a traditional style, is to make innovative designs almost impossible. However, by applying these rules in a different manner, a new and contemporary form was conceived. The house has three floors. The living room and kitchen are arranged in a loft-like space on the first floor, thereby profiting from the best views. The more intimate areas (bedrooms and bathrooms) are situated on the ground floor, orientated towards the garden on the backside. The basement contains an additional programme such as a fitness room and a home cinema.

垂直上，房子分为孩子的部分和父母的一部分。每个部分都有自己的入口、卫生室和楼梯。在房子的中央，这两个部分集中在一个2合一的浴室里.两者交织在一起为双方提供了足够的隐私，同时也使人们能够分享清晨和傍晚的仪式。儿童和父母都平等地使用上下两层，但与房子的其他部分有自己的联系。有了这种类型的组织，房子以一种微妙的方式将集体和私人的使用结合起来。同时，整个房子的设计，将壮观的景观与奢华和隐私结合在一起。作为景观中的一个乡村物体；这个岛就像桥墩。

Vertically, the house is divided in a children’s part and a part for the parents. Each part has its own entrance, sanitary rooms and staircase. In the centre of the house, the two parts come together in a 2-in-1 bathroom. The intertwining of the two provides enough privacy for both parties, while at the same time makes it possible to share early morning and evening rituals. The upper and lower levels are used equally by both children and parents, but have their own connections with (access to) the rest of the house. With this type of organisation the house combines collective and private use in a subtle way. At the same time, the design of the house as a whole, combines phenomenal views with luxury and privacy. As a rural object in the landscape; the island acts as the plinth.
