A balance of natural light, simple materials, and flows, are integrated with controlled views and atmospheric variation. This Central Austin house was remodeled in the spirit of the original Mid-Century Modern house, with an open plan, honest natural materials, and a direct connection to nature.

自然光、简单的物质和流动的平衡，与受控制的视图和大气变化相结合。奥斯汀中心的这座房子是按照原中世纪现代住宅的精神改造的，有着开放的计划、诚实的天然材料和与自然的直接联系。

The design opens the house up not only by unifying the common areas, but also by literally raising the original roof. Through merely consolidating the service core and extending it as much as possible to the back, both public and private zones become more desirable.

这个设计不仅通过统一公共区域，而且还通过提高原来的屋顶来打开房子。通过仅仅巩固服务核心并尽可能地将其扩展到后面，公共和私有区域变得更加可取。

The kitchen is seen as part of the social space, opening up rather than part of the service core. This strategy allows a completely open planned public zone which allows a raised ceiling height with clerestory windows on the south, west and north sides.

厨房被看作是社会空间的一部分，开放而不是服务核心的一部分。这一战略允许一个完全开放的规划公共区域，允许在南边、西侧和北面有一个带有牧师窗的高顶高度。

The raised ceiling maintains the original pitched roof geometry to stay harmoniously with the existing gabled roof in the private zone. The exposed roof structure helps to define each function and expanding beyond the face to connect to the outdoors while preserving privacy to the street, and the tongue and groove wood ceiling continues out to the soffit to visually dissolve the limits of enclosure. Furthermore, as an effort to bring the outdoors in, intimate patios are created for both public and private areas.

上升的天花板保持原来的倾斜屋顶几何形状，以保持与现有的门式房屋顶在私人地带。裸露的屋顶结构有助于定义每个功能，并扩展到室外，同时保护街道的隐私，舌和凹槽木天花板继续延伸到露水处，在视觉上消除了外壳的限制。此外，作为一种努力，使户外，亲密的露台是建立在公共和私人领域。
