要获得规划许可，重要的是要与现有的、典型的、英国海滨地带的房屋联系起来。房顶景观，卧室的地板，在某种程度上与这些建筑的正式存在相结合，同时也让人想起在英国旅行时在床上度过的假期和早餐的浪漫回忆。

To get a planning permission it was important to relate to the existing, typical, British seaside strip of houses. The roofscape, the bedroom floor, somehow plays with the formal presence of these buildings, and also brings into mind a romantic remembrance of holidays at bed- and breakfasts while traveling through the UK.

底层与顶层的建筑没有关系，这与此形成了鲜明的对比。起居区和梯田被设置在沙丘中，以保护它不受强风的影响，并向四面八方开放，以便能看到广阔的景色。角落可以通过滑动门打开，这将强调顶层的浮动外观。而底层的物质性；混凝土、玻璃、铝，与地面的质量有关，上层则是用实木制成的建筑，覆层被染成暗色，就像该地区现存的山墙和棚屋一样。

The ground floor is contrasting this by its lack of relationship to the architecture of the top floor. The living area and the terraces are set into the dunes in order to protect it form the strong winds, and opens equally in all directions to allow for wide views. The corners can be opened by sliding doors; this will emphasize the floating appearance of the top floor. While the materiality of the ground floor; concrete, glass, aluminum, relates to the masses of the ground, the upper floor is a construction made of solid wood, cladding stained dark as the existing gables and sheds found in the area.
