Right in the centre of Bangkok, in the stunning and fragrant country of Thailand, a residence called the Transparent Townhome was created by Black Pencils Studio to provide the illusion of an entirely transparent home without actually taking away the privacy needed for comfortable family living.

就在曼谷市中心，在令人惊叹和芬芳的泰国，黑笔工作室(Black Pencils Studio)创建了一座名为“透明联排别墅”的住宅，目的是在不剥夺舒适家庭生活所需的隐私的前提下，营造一个完全透明的家的假象。

This project involved the renovation of an old townhouse that had actually abandon for 30 years and was quite run down indeed. The basic frame of the existing structure was preserved from the original, but designers essentially started from scratch besides that. For example, the basic square footage of the home mimics that of the original but the inside and even parts of the exterior were entirely remodelled because the roof and central staircase had collapsed.

这个项目涉及改造一座老旧的联排别墅，这幢房子实际上已经废弃了30年，而且确实已经破旧不堪。现有结构的基本框架是从原来的结构中保留下来的，但设计师基本上是从零开始的。例如，房子的基本面积模仿了原来的面积，但由于屋顶和中央楼梯倒塌，内部甚至部分外部都被完全改造了。

Because they were starting almost entirely from scratch, the owners were able to choose their main priority. They instructed the design teams to put a huge emphasis on light. The existing structure was, in local fashion, quite narrow and deep, so they desired bright, natural light-filled rooms to counteract that structure and make things feel a little more open.

因为他们几乎完全是从零开始，业主能够选择他们的主要优先。他们指示设计团队对光线给予极大的重视。现有的结构，以当地的方式，相当狭窄和深沉，所以他们想要明亮，自然充满光线的房间，以抵消这种结构，并使事物感觉更开放一些。

To achieve the desired amount of light, designers built a middle segment into the structure that acts as a light-well, cut clear through the newly placed metal sheet roof. Besides flooding all extending rooms with light, this bright volume also acts as a central courtyard, making it a sort of household hub that connects, defines, and separates other spaces in the house all at once.

为了达到所需的照明量，设计师在结构中建造了一个中间部分，作为一个轻型井，通过新放置的金属板屋顶将其切割清楚。除了让所有延伸的房间都充满光线外，这一明亮的空间还充当着中央庭院的作用，使它成为一种家庭枢纽，同时连接、定义和分隔房子中的其他空间。

Within the light-well, a steel staircase links all of the interior spaces that lead off of its central location. This creates great flow throughout the home and makes just about everything easily accessible in a way that feels very streamlined. Most rooms leading off the central volume are similarly open concept and lightly defined, so more closed in areas, like storage spaces and bathrooms, are built into the perimeter frame of the house instead.

在光阱里，一个钢梯将所有的内部空间连接起来，从而使其中心位置脱离。这在整个家庭中产生了巨大的流动，并且使得所有的一切都很容易通过感觉非常流畅的方式来访问。大多数从中央卷领出来的房间都是类似开放的概念，也有轻微的定义，所以更多的封闭在区域，比如储藏空间和浴室，而是建在房子的周边框架内。

Just because the rooms are very open concept, however, definitely doesn’t mean that the family sacrifices privacy all together. Thanks to a series of hidden pocket doors and roller blinds, each room can be closed off when necessary and then re-opened and reconnected with the other rooms and the almost entirely glass facade of the house’s front with ease.

然而，仅仅因为房间是非常开放的概念，并不意味着家庭一起牺牲隐私。由于有了一系列隐藏的口袋门和滚筒百叶窗，每个房间都可以在必要时关闭，然后重新打开并重新连接到其他房间和几乎完全由玻璃构成的房屋正面。

At the front of the house, the goal was to create the effect that the rooms are opened right out into the street, letting light and shadows spill through, without actually preventing the family from seeking solitude when they want it. This is achieved thanks to a series of layered screening elements, including a fence, several different types of shrub, and a series of frames affixed to the townhouse’s facade.

在房子的前面，目标是创造出这样的效果，即房间在街上被打开，让光线和阴影溢出，而实际上阻止了家人在他们想要的时候寻求孤独。这是由于一系列分层筛选元素，包括栅栏、几种不同类型的灌木和一系列固定到联排别墅的立面的框架来实现的。
