架构师提供的文本描述。这套顶层公寓位于悉尼东郊的海港一侧，位于安彻莫特洛克最初设计的艾斯廷大厦内。

Text description provided by the architects. The penthouse apartment is located in a harbor-side eastern suburb of Sydney within the Easthaven building originally designed by Ancher Mortlock & Murray in the late 50’s, with views of Sydney Harbor to the north and Double Bay and Point Piper to the east. The project involved the complete internal reconfiguration and refurbishment of a top floor penthouse to improve the kitchen and bathroom spaces, amenity to the living areas and terrace, lighting, storage and physical and visual connections to the terrace.

 Floor Plan

从入口处开始，在北部露台达到高潮，采用了一种长细机械装置，作为统一公共领域内不同墙壁排列的一种手段，最终作为规划安排的公共和私人区域之间的关键门槛。它的视觉平面质量是间断的旋转面板，凹槽和孔，导致一个重新配置的私人领域的房间，新的扩大浴室和新厨房分别。

Commencing at the entry and culminating at the northern terrace, a long joinery device is employed as a means of unifying disparate wall alignments within the public domain, ultimately serving as the key threshold between the public and private areas of the plan arrangement. Its visually planar quality is punctuated by pivoting panels, recesses and apertures that lead to a reconfigured private domain of rooms, new enlarged bathroom and new kitchen respectively.

大的滑动和旋转面板灵活地使第二间客房扩展到公共区域并成为公共区域的一部分，获得照明和通风，从而在视觉和物理上将公共区域扩大到计划的深度。在入口附近插入一个新的研究和休息区，允许进入港口的其他沉思景观，这些景观可以通过可伸缩的窗帘从主要生活区直观地勾画出来，以便根据需要灵活地收缩或扩大起居区。

Large sliding and pivoting panels flexibly enable the second guest room to expand into and form part of the public area, gaining access to light and ventilation, thereby visually and physically enlarging the public area into the depth of the plan. A new study and sitting area are inserted near the entry, permitting access to alternative contemplative views of the harbor which can be visually delineated from the main living areas by a retractable curtain to flexibly contract or enlarge the living areas as required.

新的无框角窗和玻璃滑动门将新厨房扩展到露台，改善了太阳能通道、通风和港口主要景观的通道，同时大大改善了这间客房与露台的功能和关系。一种新的钢制框架，带有集成可调百叶窗和照明，沿北面的整个长度延伸，在这个暴露的方向为所有北面玻璃提供保护，同时改善相邻平台的舒适性和功能，以供四季享受。外部镜像墙可以从主卧室内反射海港的景色，而在露台西端设有室外存储的木材衬里烧烤区和低矮的内置长凳为各种景观和反射提供了一个隐蔽的空间。

A new frameless corner window and glass sliding door expand the new kitchen into the terrace, improving solar access, ventilation and access to principal views of the harbor, while vastly improving the function and relationship of this room to the terrace. A new steel framed pergola with integrated adjustable louvres and lighting extends along the entire length of the northern face, providing protection in this exposed orientation for all north facing glazing, while improving the amenity and function of the adjoining terrace for enjoyment in all seasons. An external mirrored wall enables reflected views of the harbor from within the main bedroom, while a timber lined bbq area and low built-in benches with outdoor storage at the western end of the terrace provide a sheltered space for alternative enjoyment of views and reflection.
