该项目是在一条繁忙的道路边缘扩建和改建一座1920年的平房。地面陡峭地落在房子后面，房子原来是远离花园的。这一设计把下山的居住小区与花园建立了一种新的关系。平房的房间被分配到入口，卧室和浴室。新的混凝土结构桥梁和绑定房子到花园和它的烟囱锚定上下。

The project was to extend and remodel a 1920’s bungalow by the edge of a busy road. The ground falls away steeply behind the house, which formerly stood aloof from its garden. The design draws the living quarters down the hill into a new relationship with the garden. The rooms of the bungalow are given over to entrance, bedrooms and bathroom. The new concrete structure bridges and binds the house to the garden and its chimney anchors above and below.

延伸的跨度有一个双高的起居室、厨房和公用空间，从一个梯级平台走到下面的花园。铸造弹簧的形状，旋转将一个弹簧拉到南光和西光中。客厅铺满了端粒木版，厨房里铺着抛光混凝土，墙壁表面粗糙而光滑，灌木锤击的混凝土和涂有油漆的木片。厨房餐厅是通往花园的露台，背上有一层阳光明媚的甲板。

The span of the extension houses a double height living-room, kitchen and utility spaces, stepping down and out through a terraced plinth to the garden below. The form of the casting springs and rotates to draw one down into the south and west light. The living room is floored with end-grain woodblock and the kitchen with polished concrete, wall surfaces are rough and smooth, bush-hammered concrete and painted timber sheeting. The kitchen dining room opens up as a terrace to the garden and a sunlit deck is carried on its back.

最初的房子建于1929年，但我们想要建造一个大胆的现代延伸，以对比新旧-从道路上看不见。我们对结果非常满意。混凝土的使用赋予了我们所寻求的勇气，而在门窗上广泛使用橡木细木器，使房子融入到房子后面的花园和绿色植物中。我们特别喜欢上面的露台，那里阳光充足；厨房功能简单；大体积混凝土烟囱进入生活区的中心，产生了“外-内”效应。

The original house was built in 1929 but we wanted to build a bold, modern extension to contrast old and new - one that couldn't be seen from the road. We are very pleased with the result. The use of concrete gives the boldness we were looking for, while the extensive use of oak joinery for doors and windows lets the house blend in to the gardens and greenery at the rear of the house. We are particularly fond of the upper terrace which gets lots of sun; the functional simplicity of the kitchen; and the mass concrete chimney which comes into the centre of the living areas giving an 'outside-inside' effect.

.它改善了我在这所房子里的心情，而不是一个更传统的房子。

..it improves my mood to be in this house and not a more conventional one.
