Description by Bryant Alsop: The design was lead by the Edwardian character of the original Elgin house and it was important that the new addition carried through this sensibility. The owners were wanting to create a relaxed family home, that both spoke of their life in Australia but also reflected back to time spent living in the UK. They wanted a contemporary family home, that was open-plan and flowed, but retained distinct living areas as was characteristic of the older house.

布莱恩特·阿尔索普的描述：设计是由最初的埃尔金豪宅的爱德华风格领导的，重要的是，新的加法延续了这种感觉。业主们想要建立一个轻松的家庭住宅，这两个人都谈到了他们在澳大利亚的生活，但也反映了他们在英国生活的时光。他们想要一个现代的家庭住宅，这是开放的计划和流动，但保留了独特的居住区域，因为这是老房子的特点。

Our projects endeavour to continue the existing character of the heritage building through the use of materials, in this case, timber detailing, principal roof forms and overall proportion. With a Heritage Overlay on the site, Council required the addition to be recessive from the street, and the Owners were keen that the new works sat sympathetically with the old house. Internally, subtle panelling to the cabinetry and ceilings, the proportion of windows and doors, and a distinction between old and new help to both enhance the character of the old and provide an relaxed, comfortable fit for the new addition.

通过使用材料，在这种情况下，我们的项目努力继续沿用传统建筑的现有性质，在这种情况下，木材详述、主要屋顶形式和总体比例。在工地上有一个遗产覆盖区，议会要求在街道上加上隐性的东西，业主希望新的作品与旧的房子有相同的关系。在内部，精致的镶板到橱柜和天花板，窗户和门的比例，以及新旧帮助的区别，既增强了老年人的个性，又为新的增添提供了轻松、舒适的配合。

The existing house was re-worked while maintaining structural walls, and rooflines. A new master suite was created within the existing rooms at the front of the house. A central double height space containing the stair separates the new addition form the original home, and allows light to floor into the otherwise centralised and dark area of the plan. Children’s bedrooms, a family bathroom and play room were positioned on the first floor to create distinct living zones suitable for current primary school aged children, but with a view to providing long-term suitability for young adult children living at home.

现有的房子是在维护结构墙和屋顶的同时重新装修的。在房子前面的现有房间里新建了一套主套房。一个包含楼梯的中央双高度空间将新的附加部分从原来的住宅中分离出来，并允许光到地板进入计划的其他集中和黑暗的区域。儿童卧室、家庭浴室和游戏室设在一楼，以创建适合当前小学年龄儿童的独特的生活区，但其目的是为居住在家中的成年儿童提供长期的适宜性。

The functionality of Kitchen, Laundry and Cloak Room were also central to the brief. As well as looking gorgeous, it was key that these areas performed well. Storage was optimised by utilising areas under the stair, in the roof space, and generously throughout the floorplan. This was a key change from the older house, where there was almost no built-in cabinetry.

厨房、洗衣房和衣帽间的功能也是简报的核心。除了看上去华丽，关键是这些领域的表现良好。通过利用楼梯下的区域，屋顶空间，以及整个楼盘规划中慷慨的空间，储存空间得到了优化。这是老房子的一个关键变化，在那里几乎没有内置的橱柜。
