架构师提供的文本描述。前后填充是一个动画，前后半分离，其中拥有两个小，但宽敞的光线填充的房子。这个设计是两个建筑师的合作，每个建筑师设计一个住宅，一起工作，把这两种设计无缝地融合在一起。这样做的方法是把这两座房子放在前面背对着，而不是传统的一边对边。一个家会面对街道，与公共领域接触，而另一个家将居住在后院的私人领域。每个单元都是为了利用其在网站上的独占地位而设计的，从而形成了两个具有自己独特的性格和个性的独特的住宅。

Text description provided by the architects. Front to back infill is an animated, front to back semi-detached which boasts two small yet spacious light-filled homes. The design was a collaboration of two architects, each designing one of the homes, and working together to fuse the two designs seamlessly into one another. The approach was to situate the two homes front to back instead of the traditional side to side. One home would face the street and engage the public realm, while the other would inhabit the private realm of the rear yard. Each unit is designed to take advantage of its exclusive position on the site resulting in two unique homes with their own distinctive character and personality.

该项目面临的挑战是在现有房屋之间狭小的25‘x80’地块上为两个单独的业主设计两套小型和负担得起的房屋。新的前到后半允许每个业主保持单独的所有权，并分摊土地成本，以使项目负担得起。使用经济的材料和简单的细节是必不可少的发展背景设计以及维持一个经济预算。

The challenge for this project was to design two small and affordable homes for two separate owners on a narrow 25’ x 80’ lot slotted between existing houses. The new front to back semi allowed each owner to maintain separate ownership and split the land cost to make the project affordable. The use of economical materials and simple details were essential to developing a contextual design as well as maintaining an economical budget.

该网站位于无产阶级住宅区的边缘，从渥太华辛顿堡社区的Parkdale农民市场走上台阶。这个街区由19世纪工人简朴的房屋组成，中间散布着轻工业建筑的残余物，这些建筑影响了人们的正式姿态和重要性，激发了半人与其背景之间深思熟虑的对话。

The site is located on the edge of a proletarian residential neighbourhood and steps from the Parkdale Farmer’s Market in Ottawa’s community of Hintonburg. The neighbourhood is made up of modest 19th century worker’s houses interspersed with remnants of light industrial buildings which influenced the formal gestures and materiality inspiring a thoughtful dialogue between the semi and its context.

可持续性首先是决定设计两座小型紧凑型房屋，而不是一座大房子。前后半允许增加两个新的负担得起的住宅在一个可持续的社区和促进负责任的增长，在一个紧凑的步行城市中心。建筑物的主要形式开始于一个简单的3层的盒子在后面的地段(后单元)与第二个盒子嫁接到前面(前单元)。前面的箱子是在高跷上提起来的，以便停车和单独进入后面的单元。然后，它被雕刻和碎裂，以反映现有房屋的比例。这两座房屋被金属和胶合板包裹，受到现场工业背景的启发。

Sustainability starts with the decision to design two small compact houses in lieu of one large home. The front to back semi allows for an increase in two new affordable residences in a sustainable community and promotes responsible growth in a compact walkable urban center. The primary form of the building began as a simple 3 storey box at the rear of the lot (the back unit) with a second box grafted onto the front (the front unit). The front box was raised on stilts to allow for parking and a separate access to the back unit. It was then sculpted and fragmented to reflect the proportions of the existing houses. The two homes were wrapped with metal and plywood inspired by the site’s industrial context.

从底层的前一单元，楼梯上升到前面的地板到天花板的窗户，并带你到初级生活水平上升1层以上的街道。在主要的生活水平上，一个完全玻璃的南墙打开了一个巨大的悬臂露台，提供了一个空间之间的私人领域的房子和公共领域的街道。雕塑橱柜包裹着生活空间，当他们经过用餐区时，下沉到一个低矮的壁炉里，然后无缝地进入极简式壁炉盒的壁炉里。透明玻璃隔开楼梯(包括入口和上部)，使三楼天窗的光线能够清洗墙壁，使空间变得活跃起来。

From the ground floor level of the front unit, stairs rise in front of a floor-to-ceiling window and takes you up to the primary living level raised 1 storey above the street. On the main living level, a fully glazed south wall opens onto a large cantilevered terrace providing an interstitial space between the private realm of the house and the public realm of the street. Sculptural cabinets wrap the living space, sinking down to act as a low commode as they pass the dining area, then morph seamlessly into the raised hearth of the minimalist fireplace box. Sheets of transparent glass separate the stairs (both entry and upper) allowing light from the third floor skylight to wash the walls and enliven the space.

后方单元庆祝其3层高的盒子的完整，一个戏剧性的双容量空间，连接厨房和餐厅的区域在一楼和客厅夹层在二楼，使一个连续和好玩的空间与视觉连接和多个有利点。大窗户填补了双卷空间，使大量的西北光动画空间与雕塑白色墙壁上的多个阴影。简单的悬臂枫木楼梯连接了房子的三个层次，后面是一个优雅的金属面纱，巧妙地将楼梯与房子的其他部分隔开。房间聚焦在阁楼的极简式火箱上，位于一个凸起的混凝土壁炉上，保持下面厨房的质感和物质性。正面到背面填充是一个独特的概念，传统的半独立的家庭和一个创新的方式，以增加密度在一个狭窄的填充地。

The rear unit celebrates the integrity of its 3 storey box with a dramatic double volume space that connects the kitchen and dining area on the first floor with the living room mezzanine on the second floor to make one continuous and playful space with visual connections and multiple vantage points. Large windows fill the double volume space allowing substantial northwest light to animate the space with multiple shadows on the sculptural white walls. Simple cantilevered maple stairs connect the three levels of the home behind an elegant metal veil that subtly screens the stair from the rest of the house. The room focusing minimalist firebox in the mezzanine rests on a raised concrete hearth maintaining the textures and materiality of the kitchen below. The front to back infill is a unique concept for the traditional semi-detached home and an innovative way to increase density on a narrow infill lot.
