客户，一个木匠，要求一个传统的木结构房子。木材结构框架从西雅图运往以色列。这一后勤问题要求房屋的设计和建造采用由标准木材模块建立的严格的模块化系统。这种系统的方法被用来创造一系列开放的流动空间。

The client, a carpenter, requested a traditional Timber Frame House. The timber structural frame was shipped to Israel from Seattle. This logistic problem demanded that the house be designed and built on a strict modular system established by standard timber modules. This systematic approach was used to create a series of open flowing spaces.

轻型两层木框架放置在关闭的混凝土基础上，其中包括一个小地下室，并上升到一个45厘米高的自然地面水平基准线。只有抱着孩子们床的墙壁比这更高。门窗底座作为挡土墙，创造了主楼层的生活平台.

The light two-storey timber frame is placed on the off-shutter concrete base that includes a small basement and rises above the natural ground level to a 45 cm high datum line. Only the walls embracing the children's beds are higher than this. The off-shutter base acts as a retaining wall creating the main floor living platform.

这一生活平台，包括入口，居住和用餐空间，一个家庭房间，儿童卧室和中央庭院，是一层以上的街道。二楼有父母的卧室和书房，还有一个小露台，可以俯瞰中央的庭院，这是由房子的南面和西面以及北面的起伏地形决定的。庭院的东边是由一个外部浴室定义的，它是一个双倍的观景台。在这里，景色展现在它的整个辉煌。

This living platform, including the entrance, living and dining spaces, a family room, the children's bedrooms and the central courtyard, is one floor above the street. The second floor contains the parents bedroom and study and a small terrace overlooking the central courtyard, which is defined by the house to the south and west and by the rising topography to the north. The eastern edge of the courtyard is defined by an external bathroom which doubles as a viewing platform. Here, the view is revealed in its entire splendor.
