这座房子的概念是为了反映悉尼港湾盆地的地形和地貌。房子的表现为一系列的水平层-沙石覆盖的底座回声石悬崖，拥抱悉尼港的入口处。

The concept for this house was to reflect the topography and landform of the Sydney Habour basin. The house is expressed as a series of horizontal layers – the sandstone clad base echoes the stone cliffs that hug the inlets of Sydney Harbour.

平面白色渲染形式的上层响应于在南半球发现的强烈的北光。在悬臂白色平面之间，全高度低E玻璃捕捉戏剧性的海港景观，同时保持一个热高效的内部环境。

The upper stories of planar white rendered forms respond to the strong northern light found in the southern hemisphere. Between the cantilevered white planes, full height low-E glazing captures the dramatic harbour views whilst maintaining a thermally efficient internal environment.

人们有意识地决定将精密的人造材料如钢和玻璃与天然材料如本地凿成的砂岩进行对比。

There was a conscious decision to contrast precise man made materials such as steel and glass with natural materials such as the locally hewn sandstone.

这座四层楼高的住宅位于郊区的一条小街道上，主要居住在顶层，可俯瞰城市和海港的180度景观。由于暴露在北部和西部，以及完全向外开放的能力，房子有效的交叉通风，从而否定了空调的使用。

Located in a small scale suburban street, the four storey residence incorporates its primary living areas on the top floor taking advantage of 180 degree views of the city and harbour. With exposure to the north and west and the ability to open up completely to the outside, the house has effective cross ventilation negating the use of air conditioning.
