架构师提供的文本描述。这个项目涉及对位于菲茨罗伊市中心郊区的一座历史悠久的1830年建筑进行改建和增建。这座三层砖房最初是附近一座豪宅的私人马厩，由一个双高的仓库空间组成，里面有木材桁架和牧师窗，毗邻一个两层高的干草阁楼。要将这栋建筑改造成一个单一的家庭住宅，就需要平衡现有建筑的遗产价值(这些建筑被认为是单独的重要建筑)，以及客户对高科技、环境可持续的住宅的渴望，这反映了他们作为一个紧密联系的家庭的需求。虽然坐落在一个密集的城市环境，简要呼吁“对自然环境和季节的感觉，从内部俯瞰天空”。客户还评论说，这些家庭成员“倾向于从房子的不同区域相互吸引”。

Text description provided by the architects. This project involves alterations and additions to a historic 1830’s building located in the inner city suburb of Fitzroy. Originally operating as private horse stables for a nearby mansion, the triple brick building consists of a double height warehouse space with timber trusses and clerestory windows, adjacent to a two storey hay loft. The conversion of the building to a single family residence required a response that balanced the heritage value of the existing building (which had been deemed individually significant), with the desire of the client for a high tech environmentally sustainable house that reflected their needs as a tight-knit family. Although sited in a dense urban setting, the brief called for a "sense of the natural environment and the seasons with views to the sky from the interior". The clients also commented that the family members “tend to gravitate towards one another from different areas of the house”.

“云9”是指1896年的国际云地图集，在这十种云类型中，积雨云是最大、最浮肿和最舒适的一种。云层既有波浪状的图案，也有分形的几何图形-其中一种叫做阿波罗垫圈。这种几何学在平面图和剖面上构成了房屋的基本组织系统。主要的马厩区是一个大的开放平面体积，其中的功能是由360度自由站立细木工。一个蜿蜒的阁楼延伸到头顶，保持两个层次之间的视觉联系，以强化这样一种观念，即这是一座庆祝“家庭”的房子，作为一种社交活动或社交活动的一种形式。

Sitting on “cloud 9” refers to the 1896 International Cloud-Atlas in which, of the ten cloud types, cloud No. 9, cumulonimbus, was the biggest, puffiest and most comfortable-looking. Clouds exhibit both wave-like patterns and fractal geometries – one of which is referred to as an Apollonian gasket. This geometry forms an underlying system of organization for the house in both plan and section. The main stables area is a large open plan volume where functions are delineated by 360 degree free standing joinery. A winding mezzanine extends overhead, maintaining visual connection between the two levels to reinforce the notion that this is a house that celebrates “family” as a form of social engagement or gemeinschaft.
