Chamfer House revisits a post and beam dwelling designed in 1977 by Kevin Borland. It sits within an established garden on Oliver’s Hill, a crucible of late modernism overlooking Port Phillip Bay. Our clients approached us soon after moving in. They wanted to protect the timber structure and ceilings they loved, while also updating the house to suit their young family. Our design is a sensitive restoration and renovation that touches every room yet retains the house’s core personality. We unkinked the plan, pulled back a touch on the 1970s psychedelics, and reconfigured the living and sleeping areas to better connect with the garden.

倒角屋重新访问一个柱和梁住宅设计于1977年凯文博兰。它坐落在奥利弗山(Oliver‘sHill)一座已建成的花园里，这是一个现代化晚期的熔炉，俯瞰菲利普湾港。我们的客户搬进来后不久就来找我们了。他们想保护他们喜欢的木材结构和天花板，同时也更新房子以适应他们年轻的家庭。我们的设计是一个敏感的修复和翻新，触及每一个房间，但保留了房子的核心个性。我们解开了这个计划，收回了上世纪70年代的迷幻剂，重新配置了生活和睡眠区，以便更好地与花园连接。

We sought to build on the juxtaposition of structural rationality and romanticism, layering a rational spatial sequence with an exploded interpretation of the chamfer. A device used regularly by Borland, we developed it into a three dimensional form that operates from the macro scale to the micro. The faceted balcony soffit framing the view from the master bedroom is one example, as are the repetitive triangular motifs in our customized joinery hardware.

我们试图建立在结构理性和浪漫主义并置的基础上，将理性的空间序列与对倒角的爆炸解释结合起来。这是Borland经常使用的一种装置，我们把它发展成一种从宏观到微观的三维形式。从主卧室看风景的多面阳台是一个例子，我们定制的细木工硬件中重复的三角形图案也是一个例子。
