架构师提供的文本描述。这个项目的客户是一个三口之家：一对带着小孩的夫妇。该项目是从与客户一起选择地点开始的。在参观了川西住宅区的倒L形地段几个地点后，兵库以其远离东侧的萨苏基山的风景吸引了全家人的心，比周围的城市景观高出一层。

Text description provided by the architects. The client for this project is a family of three: a couple with a small child. The project began from site selection with the client. After visiting several locations, the inverted L-shaped lot in the residential area of Kawanishi city, Hyogo grabbed the family’s heart with its scenic view far over the Satsuki Mountain from the east side of the lot, which is one level higher than the surrounding townscape.

这对夫妇喜欢在家里过周末，他们把自己梦想中的房子想象成一栋宽敞的单层住宅，有一张餐桌、一间伸展的房间和一个露台，这是他们的具体要求。由于场地条件的影响，最终的设计发展成了一个双层住宅；然而，二楼的开阔视野是为了保持一层的氛围，让一家人在一天的大部分时间里度过轻松的时光。露台是设计过程中最耗时的元素，面向南方阳光照射，直接位于入口上方，与客厅连接为一个统一的空间，并覆盖着百叶窗，以保护隐私。

The couple, who love to spend weekends at home, envisioned their dream house as a spacious single-story with a table for dinning, a room for stretching out and a terrace as specific requests. Due to site conditions the final design grew to a double story residence; however, the open view of the second floor was designed to retain a single-story atmosphere for the family to spend most of the day relaxed. The terrace, the most time-consuming element of the design process, is oriented to the south for sunlight and located directly over the entrance, connected to the living area as one united space, and covered with louvers to protect privacy.

从长入口处看到的百叶窗，特点是倒L形的地段，欢迎游客，并提高了他们进入房子的期望。在二楼，露台、光线充足的轻松客厅和安静的餐厅之间的对比，以及从天窗照射下来的光线，使客户可以根据自己的需要选择每一个空间。

The louvers viewed from the long entrance approach, characteristic of the inverted L-shaped lot, welcome visitors and heighten their expectations for entering the house. On the second floor, the contrast between the terrace, the well-lit relaxing living room, and the quiet dining room with descending light from a skylight allows the clients to choose each space depending on their needs.

一楼可容纳主卧室和孩子的房间；然而，家庭大部分时间都在二楼。

The first floor accommodates the master bedroom and the child’s room; however, the family spends most of their time on the second floor.

房主说：“搬进这所房子后，我们的时间就在延长和缩减。有时我们觉得时间流得很慢，有时甚至没有意识到已经过去了多少时间。“从房子里观察到的四季流动的灯光和变幻的风景，让居民们感受到了时间编织的丰富织物。

The owner said, “Since moving into this house, our time stretches and shrinks. Sometimes we feel time flows very slowly, and sometimes we don’t even realize how much time already has passed.” Streaming light and changing scenery of the four seasons observed from the house lets its residents feel the rich fabric that time weaves.
