架构师提供的文本描述。这座建筑是一座私人住宅，有一个附属办公室，就在Himeji城堡的西北方向。该站点的深度大于其宽度。在这座房子旁边还有一座建筑，遮住了底层的Himeji城堡。值得注意的是，尽管这个城市有现代化的建筑，但这个私人住宅被一个传统的“城堡城”所包围，里面有许多历史建筑、房屋和纪念碑。

Text description provided by the architects. This building is a private house with an attached office, directly northwest of Himeji castle. The site’s depth is longer than its width. There is also a building adjacent to this house which obscures Himeji castle at ground level. One thing to note is that even though there are modern buildings in this city, this private residence is surrounded by a traditional “castle town”, with many historical buildings, houses, and monuments.

客户请求我们设计一个居住空间，有以下三个要求：1。能够从起居室看到Himeji城堡。可以停五辆车，其中三个是客人的停车位，三个是。加入一个花园，在那里可以把衣服挂起来晾干，让它们的狗自由地跑来跑去。因此，本项目的主题是响应客户的要求，同时调解历史建筑和新住宅之间的差异。

We were petitioned by the client to design a living space with the following three requests: 1. To be able to see Himeji castle from the living room, 2. To be able to park five cars, with three of those stalls as the guest parking space and, 3. To incorporate a garden where laundry can be hung out to dry and to allow their dogs to run about freely. Therefore, the theme of this project was to respond to the client's requests while mediating the differences between the historical buildings and the new residence.

该主题的解决方案是通过使用扭曲的矩形结构的形状来创建的，其设计步骤如下：1。这座建筑设计在离街道很远的地方，以便提供必要的停车位。2.一个长方形的结构基本上被切成两半，每一半向相反的方向移动，形成一种“交错”的形式，这为私人花园提供了足够的空间。3.然后，交错结构的墙壁被轻微地扭曲和提升，以纳入Himeji城堡的景观。

The solution to the theme was created by using the shape of a twisted rectangular structure and was designed with the following steps:  1. The building was designed at a distance from the street to make the necessary parking space. 2. A rectangular structure was basically cut in half, with each half shifted in opposite directions to make a “staggered” form, which allows enough space for the private garden. 3. The walls of the staggered structure were then slightly twisted and lifted in order to incorporate a view of Himeji castle.

在建筑术语中，这个过程创建了一个有四个双曲抛物线墙的建筑结构(参考概念模型)。随着墙高的增加，每层的整体面积和体积也在增加，使房子有了更宽敞的氛围。此外，与毗邻低层历史建筑的高大建筑相比，Himeji天文台大楼更适合周围环境，交错形状减少了任何外来的体积，否则会妨碍整体外观的邻里关系。

In architectural terms, this process creates a building structure with four hyperbolic parabolic walls (refer to concept model). As the walls increase in height, the overall area and volume of each floor increases as well, giving the house a more spacious atmosphere.In addition, when compared to a tall, large building that is adjacent to low-rise historical structures, the Himeji Observatory House adapts much better to its surroundings because the twisted, staggered shape reduces any extraneous volume that would otherwise impede on the overall appearance of the neighborhood.

此外，随着建筑物的老化和混凝土墙开始出现气候变化，Himeji天文台大楼将发展出更多的特色-树会长得更高，外墙将变得有气候污点，整个房产将慢慢与周围其他地区协调一致。

Furthermore, as the building ages and the concrete walls start to weather, the Himeji Observatory House will develop more character - the trees will grow taller, the exterior walls will become weather-stained, and the entire property will slowly harmonize with the rest of the neighbourhood.

随着年龄的增长，这种朴素的外观将类似于青苔覆盖的Himeji城堡的石墙。我设计了这座房子，就像它要活过来一样，伸长脚趾，以便在树冠上看到Himeji城堡。我希望这所房子能反映出客户对Himeji城堡的依恋，同时也被历史名城所接受。

The modest appearance that comes with age will be similar to the moss-covered stone walls of Himeji castle. I designed this house as if it were coming to life, stretching its toes in order to see Himeji castle over the canopy of the trees. I hope that the house will reflect the client's attachment to Himeji castle, while also being accepted by the historical town.
