架构师提供的文本描述。这是一座小房子，坐落在市中心的一个小场地上。该地区大多数新建的房屋正在改建为三层楼。规划一座四层楼的建筑，三层楼的建筑体积相同，这使得这座房子有了一个开放的内部空间，从而有了不同的视角。

Text description provided by the architects. This is a small house standing on a small site located in the city center. Most of the newly built houses in the area are being converted to three stories buildings. Planning a four-story building with the same volume of three-story buildings allows for a different perspective, enabling this house to have an open interior space.

因此，这座建筑有一个环形的开口，在室内空间中是一条抽象而连续的光带。这条丝带擦去了内部空间的边缘，使空间的轮廓变得模糊，使空间从内向外延伸。

As a consequence, this building has an annular opening, which appears as an abstract and continuous ribbon of light in the interior space. This ribbon erases the edge of the interior space, and makes the outline of the space obscure, giving the space a stretch from the inside to outside.

家具以不寻常的方式布置在正面，作为建筑的延伸，为空间提供了合适的规模、有效的可用性。

The furniture is arranged on the facade side in an unusual way, and treated as an extension of the building, providing the space with suitable scale effective usability.
