首先，人们认识到，这条街目前正处于过渡时期，战后的砖房风格住宅让位于最近的现代住宅。

Firstly, the recognition that the street is currently in transition with the post war brick bungalow style dwelling giving way to more recent contemporary dwellings.

第二，随着在网站上建立一个比目前更大的家庭住宅，有必要在内部开放的观念与对隐私的更高需求与围绕网站的更大发展强度之间取得平衡。

Secondly, with the establishment of a larger family home on the site than currently exists, the need to balance the perception of openness from within against a heightened need for privacy with the greater intensity of development now surrounding the site.

在处理街道景观的过渡性质量时，要注意的是一座新建筑将如何适应可能出现的新街景，而不是现有的街景。这一理由很明显地体现在新家的出现和多少“自信”上，等待新的发展浪潮的每一个侧翼。

In addressing the transitional quality of the streetscape, attention is given to how a new building will fit into a likely new streetscape rather than the existing one. This rationale is evident in the resulting and somewhat ‘self confident’ presence of the new home, awaiting the tide of new developments each of its flanks.

感知视觉散装的问题已经通过上层的方式被解决了，它沿着它的长度被分割成三个不同的部分，从前到后运行。

Issues of perceived visual bulk have been addressed through the upper level by way of its fragmentation along its length into three distinct sections running front to back.

光滑的白色呈现的立方体状的形状；前后；中间由一个较低的连接部分隔开，用对比暗带锯木来标出。

Smooth white rendered cube like forms; fore and aft; are separated midway by a lower linking section, punctuated by contrasting dark band sawn timbers.

与街道和街道之间的隐私问题是通过较高层次的引入一个深露台面对家庭办公室。远处的视野是从这个空间中获得的，横跨露台，而露台作为一种视觉衬托阻隔视线从街道到这个私人空间。

Issues of privacy to and from the street are addressed with the upper level introduction of a deep terrace fronting the home office. Distant views are gained from within this space across the terrace whilst the terrace acts as a visual foil blocking sight lines from the street to this private space.

在更深的地点和房子的内部空间，视野被引导从内部到私人户外起居区，而沿着它的侧翼的屏蔽阻止观看机会从附近的住宅。因此，在对开放的需要和对隐私的要求之间取得了平衡。

Deeper into the site and the internal spaces of the house, views are channeled from within to private outdoor living areas, whilst screening along its flanks prevents viewing opportunities to and from neighboring dwellings. A balance thus struck between the need for openness and requirement for privacy.

房子的核心是家庭的休闲生活，通过两层楼上升；空间的定义是外部游泳池的接近，延伸到它的墙面。当一个架空桥梁连接穿过这个内部空间时，整个生活区都实现了强大的视觉互联。

The central core of the house invites casual family living, rising through two levels; the space is defined by the proximity of the external pool which extends to its wall face. With an overhead bridge link traversing this internal space, strong visual interconnection is achieved throughout the living zones.
