这个网站的压倒性问题是俯瞰。挑战是创造和内向的建筑，从上面和通过私人内部庭院的光线。位于垂直循环上方的一口大光井通过房子形成了一个大的，自然照明的音量下降到地下室。木材卢浮宫屏幕前面的外部窗口，防止俯瞰从内部和外面的财产。

The overwhelming issue with this particular site is one of overlooking. The challenge was to create and introverted building that draws its light from above and via private internal courtyards. A large light well positioned above the vertical circulation which climbs through the house creates a large, naturally lit volume descending to the basement. Timber louvre screens in front of external windows prevent overlooking from within and outside of the property.

对砖和债券的选择是对周围住房存量重要性的反应。垂直的西部红雪松覆层的元素打破砖工作的正面和统一百叶窗，同时保持一个简单的调色板的材料。一个相对较薄的65毫米板被用来匹配砖瓦球场的高度，尽管是在一个垂直的平面上。这种对细节的关注允许某种程度的微妙的一致性，这创造了一种简单但被认为是有序的感觉。

The choice of brick and bond was a response to the materiality of the surrounding housing stock. Elements of vertical western red cedar cladding break up the brick work facades and unite the louvers, whilst maintaining a simple palette of materials . A relatively slimlined 65mm board was used to match the brickwork course height, albeit on a vertical plane. This attention to detail allows for a level of subtle uniformity which creates a simple yet considered sense of order.

较低的屋顶，相邻的边界，在两面是覆盖在西沙。尽管有热和环境方面的好处，但这些屋顶可以从毗邻工地的较高的3层房屋中看到，我们希望这座建筑能依偎在工地内，因此我们从邻近的楼上窗户上展示了一个绿色、砖瓦和木材的视觉调色板。

The lower roofs which are adjacent to the boundaries on 2 sides are covered in Sedum. Notwithstanding the thermal and environmental benefits, these roofs are visible from the taller 3 storey houses adjacent to the site and we wanted the building to nestle into the site so we presented a visual palette of green, brickwork and timber from the neighbouring upstairs windows.
