架构师提供的文本描述。这座2400平方英尺的房子探索了边缘和交叉的概念。从街道上看，这座建筑被低估了，而且表面上很简单。花园的围墙决定了公共和私人之间的界限。一座木桥穿过一个倒影池，通往入口庭院。庭院的北墙是由深绿色的聚碳酸酯皮构成的，在夜间将绿色的光芒投射到周围的墙壁和摊铺机上。当一个人搬进大楼，一个复杂的交叉口的爆发变得明显，活跃的空间和定义的空间环境是意想不到的和变化的。

Text description provided by the architects. This 2400 square foot house explores the notion of edges and intersections. From the street, the building is understated and deceptively simple. A garden wall defines the edge between public and private. A wooden bridge leads over a reflecting pool, accessing the entry courtyard. The north wall of the courtyard is defined by a bottle green polycarbonate skin, casting a greenish glow onto the surrounding walls and pavers at night. As one moves into the building, a burst of complex intersections becomes apparent, enlivening the space and defining a spatial environment that is unexpected and varied.

聚碳酸酯墙作为一个清空故事出现在进入画廊，填补中心的建筑，一个软的，空灵的光。这个画廊作为建筑的流线型脊梁，向南打开大房间的侧翼，向北打开卧室的侧翼。

The polycarbonate wall presents itself as a clearstory in the entry gallery, filling the center of the building with a soft, ethereal light. This gallery acts as the circulation spine for the building and opens onto the great room wing to the south and bedroom wing to the north.

当一个人沿着土地的轮廓移动时，这个巨大的房间就会上升。它包括一个音乐室，一个食物准备和吃的空间，和一个客厅。大多数房间都是向外部开放的，从视觉上看，这所房子超出了其适度的足迹。内部和外部线条模糊，景观特征补充建筑表达。

The great room steps up as one moves through it, following the contour of the land. It includes a music room, a food-prep and eating space, and a sitting room. Most rooms open to the exterior, visually expanding the house beyond its modest footprint. Interior and exterior lines are blurred, and landscape features complement the architectural expression.

这座房子是用来休息的，是西雅图灰蒙蒙的冬天的解药，也是现代家庭可以在隐秘和反思中生活的充满活力的框架。

This house is intended as a respite, an antidote to Seattle’s gray winters and a dynamic frame in which a modern family can live in privacy and reflection.
