位于南亚拉的Argo是一个精致的家庭住宅，它充分利用了214平方米的紧凑的城市内部场地的每一平方毫米。设计和体量仔细地编辑和回应了每个边界的困难规划界面，住宅的组织被设置为克服南向后院的相关挑战。所有的底层空间和通道都围绕着一个东北方向的中央庭院，它不仅是住宅入口处的一个受欢迎的焦点，而且还将自然光深深地注入到这个高水准住宅的主要生活空间。
Located in South Yarra, Argo is a sophisticated family home that capitalised fully on every square millimetre of its compact 214 sqm inner urban site. The design and massing carefully edit and respond to difficult planning interfaces at each boundary and the organization of the home was set up to overcome the associated challenges of a south facing rear yard. All ground floor spaces and circulation pinwheel around a central northeast facing courtyard which serves not only as a welcome focal point to the entry sequence of the residence but also injects natural light deeply into the principal living spaces of this high calibre home.
弯曲的石头、石膏板和瓷砖墙面与两个高度雕塑化的楼梯搭配，提供了柔和的过渡，为住宅提供了宽敞的空间，打破了住宅紧凑的占地面积。
Curved stone, plasterboard, render and tile walls pair with two highly sculptural stairs to provide soft transitions which provide the home with a spatial generosity that defies the compact footprint of the residence.
室内的细节和比例是优雅的，精致的，并通过几个战略性的天窗、斑驳的隐私屏幕和电动操作的玻璃屋顶舱口来实现。
The detailing and proportions of the interiors are elegant, refined and animated via several strategically located skylights, dappled privacy screens and an electrically operated glazed roof hatch.
尽管场地不大，但房子在户外空间上并没有妥协。有四个不同的外部房间被设计在平面图上。前花园、中央庭院、后花园和俯瞰CBD和南亚拉的屋顶平台。
Despite the small site, the house does not compromise on outdoor space. There are four different external rooms that have been designed into the floor plan. The front garden, the central courtyard, the rear garden and a roof deck overlooking the CBD and South Yarra.
榫卯结构、石膏外露、踢脚线和钢制框架门楣都统一对齐，以创造水平基准，从而在不同材料和房间之间创造微妙的审美和形式上的凝聚力。
Joinery rebates, plaster reveals, skirtings, and steel framed mullions all uniformly align to create horizontal datums which create subtle aesthetic and formal cohesion across materials and rooms.
