North of Chicago on the bluff overlooking Lake Michigan, the house is a thin line of space bent back upon itself creating a threshold between two landscapes. Curving in and out of the adjacent tree canopies, the house opens to views of the natural terrain and coastline on the sunrise side. On the sunset side, the shape forms an enclosing wall, which defines a protected courtyard.

在芝加哥北部，在俯瞰密歇根湖的悬崖上，这所房子是一条狭长的空间线，向后弯曲，在两处景观之间形成了一个门槛。在相邻的树冠上弯弯曲曲，房子向日出一侧的自然地形和海岸线开放。在夕阳边，形状形成了一堵围墙，构成了一个受保护的庭院。

The interior’s continuous flow of circulation and program forms an interconnected series of open and intimate spaces. The midpoint of the Lake Michigan house is anchored by a sculptural glass-enclosed spiral stair, which creates a dynamic visual connection with the exterior, continuously reorienting the occupants’ position between the house and its landscape.

内部的连续循环流动和程序形成了一系列互连的开放和紧密的空间。密西根湖畔房屋的中点是由雕塑式玻璃封闭的螺旋楼梯锚定的，该楼梯与外部建立了一个动态的视觉连接，连续调整了房屋与景观之间的“居住者”的位置。

The building’s character consists mainly of two identities; the lower level concrete walls that anchor into the bluff, and the curved glass pavilion of the main level that stretches it’s nimble bridge-like structure far over the bluff. The main level cantilever utilizes draped steel straps, columns and trusses as the building’s only ornamentation, resulting in a serene interior that levitates above the landscape. Both identities of the residence fulfill the clients’ wish for an intimate interior with panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.

这座建筑的特点主要包括两个特征：一是固定在悬崖上的较低层次的混凝土墙，二是主层弯曲的玻璃展馆，后者将其灵活的桥状结构延伸到悬崖上方。主水平悬臂采用悬垂钢带，柱和桁架作为建筑物的唯一装饰，结果是一个宁静的内部悬浮在景观之上。这两个身份的住宅满足了客户的愿望，一个亲密的内部与全景景观周围的景观。
