房主–一个单身女孩决定保留并翻新这所与她童年记忆有很深联系的房子。这座房子位于一个老的住宅区，地块又长又窄。这个有20年历史的房子有很多问题，如空气闷热、阳光不足、破旧等等。
The owner – a bachelor girl decided to keep and renovate the house which has a deep connection with her childhood memories. The house is located in an old residential area with long and narrow land lots. There are many matters in this 20-year-old house such as stuffy air, low sunlight, deterioration, and so on.
建筑师提供了改变和重新安排功能区的方案，将厨房和卧室的位置对调，并将楼梯从夹层中取出。分隔墙被移除，生活空间现在被合并，变得更宽更凉。抬高卧室的地板，使新的卧室成为一个高而干的地方，同时还能看到房子的总体景观。房子的亮点是卧室前面的缓冲空间，它是底层与夹层、卧室和客厅的连接。
The architect has provided the solution to change and re-arrange the functional areas by swapping the position of the kitchen and bedroom and putting the stair out of the mezzanine. The dividing walls have been removed, the living space is now combined and become wider and cooler. Raising the bedroom floor makes the new one a high and dry place along with an overarching view of the house. The highlight of the house is a buffer space in front of the bedroom, which is a connection between the ground floor and the mezzanine, bedroom, and living room.
改变屋顶成功地解决了光线和温度问题。房屋的主框架包括承重墙和夹层保持不变。夹层地板由I型钢柱梁系统加固，受损的石棉水泥屋顶被替换。将新的屋顶抬高，形成了缝隙，有助于通风。前院、后院和房子中间的缓冲空间都用透明的聚碳酸酯做屋顶，让自然光溢出房子的各个部分。建筑师只使用了当地流行的材料，如砖、钢、金属屋顶、半透明屋顶和胶合板，但仍然创造了令人印象深刻的变化。
Changing the roof successfully solves the light and temperature problems. The main frame of the house including the load-bearing wall and the mezzanine remained unchanged. The mezzanine floor is reinforced by the I-shaped steel column beam system and the damaged asbestos-cement roof is replaced. Raising the new roof higher creates gaps and helps to ventilate. The front yard, back yard, and buffer space in the middle of the house are roofed by clear polycarbonate to let natural light overflow all parts of the house. The architect only uses popular local materials such as brick, steel, metal roof, translucent roof, and plywood but still creates impressive changes.
经过改造后，室内空间完全改变了。它充斥着新鲜空气和光线。在炎热的夏天，由于更好的通风，房子的温度得到了很大的改善。房间的重新定位使其功能更适合业主的生活方式。这些 “改造前-改造后 “的照片给当地人带来了难以置信的惊喜和快乐。
After being renovated, the indoor space has completely changed. It is overflowed with fresh air and light. The house temperature has been considerably improved during the hot summer because of better ventilation. Re-position of the rooms makes the functions more suitable for the owner’s lifestyle. These “Before – After” pictures of the renovation create an incredible surprise and delight for the local people.
