Jacaranda房子的设计理念是将一栋20世纪20年代的Ashgrovian房子变成一个家庭的天堂，并能灵活地适应未来20年内的需求变化。所有的核心家庭生活空间都需要在一个单层上，规模要适中、亲切，而我的建筑工作室则需要一个独立的区域。

The brief for the Jacaranda house was to turn an original 1920’s Ashgrovian house into a family haven, with the flexibility to accommodate the changing needs over the next 20 years. All core family living spaces needed to be on a single level, on a modest, intimate scale, while a separate zone was required for my architectural studio.

保持建筑核心的真实性，以及昆士兰人固有的优雅，是至关重要的。这意味着要用传统的昆士兰语言来表达建筑方法，并以美丽的木材加工为特色。

Remaining authentic to the core of the building, and the inherent elegance of the Queenslander, was critical. This meant picking up on the traditional Queenslander language of expressing the construction method, and featuring beautiful timber work.

在回应设计要求时，第一个挑战和机会是如何利用倾斜的街区的垂直空间。通过在房子下面的山丘上雕刻，创造了两个生活平面。下面是一个建筑工作室和工场，静谧而又被岩石和泥土的热质包裹着，不断地被冷却。

In responding to the brief, the first challenge and opportunity was to play with the vertical space available on the sloping block. By carving into the hill beneath the house, two planes of living were created. Below – an architectural studio and workshop, tranquil and constantly cooled by the thermal mass of rock and earth encasing it.

上方–微风拂面的昆士兰，向所有的横风开放，包含了家庭日常生活所需的所有空间。这两个平面都延伸到郁郁葱葱的草坪和花园，从工作室层挤出的一系列绿色梯田将这两个平面连接起来。

Above – a breezy Queenslander, open to all cross-breezes and encompassing all of the spaces required for daily family living. Both planes spill onto lush green lawns and gardens, with a series of green terraces, extruded from the studio level, stitching the planes together.

在上层，对原始房屋的关键补充是家庭厨房，它发挥了–事实上取代了–昆士兰人对宽大露台的想法。从进入房子开始，它就是这一层的最后一个房间，是一个压轴的东西，也是一个明显的现代附加物。大型木制滑动门在两边几乎完全缩回，形成一个外部厨房花园亭子。

On the upper level, the key addition to the original house was the family kitchen, which plays on – and in fact replaces – the Queenslander idea of a generous deck. From entering the house, it is the last room on this level to be revealed – something of a finale and a clear contemporary addition. Large timber sliding doors retract almost fully on two sides to form an external kitchen garden pavilion.

新、旧、室内和室外之间的过渡通过材料（砖、木材和混凝土）和一致的水平面语言无缝地交织在一起，延续了垂直空间的游戏，使新增部分能够轻巧地坐在其倾斜的山坡上。

Transitions between new, old, indoor and outdoor are seamlessly woven together through both materiality (brick, timber and concrete) and a consistent language of horizontal planes, that continues the play on vertical space and enables the addition to sit lightly in its sloping, hillside context.

大门是任何昆士兰人的基本特征，但往往会减少中央生活空间的视线和自然光线。在Jacaranda House的厨房里，传统的向下倾斜的外墙被一个丝状的、向上倾斜的、有挡板的外墙所取代。在与包裹着花园的巨大Jacaranda的合作中，这个前夕实现了对进入厨房的阳光的美丽过滤，在这个 “花园厨房 “中创造了一个温和的、不断变化的光影模式。

Large eves are an essential feature of any Queenslander, but often reduce sightlines and natural light in central living spaces. In the Jacaranda House kitchen, the traditional downward sloping eve is replaced with a filigree, upward-sloping, battoned eve. In partnership with the giant Jacaranda that encases the garden, the eve achieves a beautiful filter of sunlight into the kitchen, creating a gentle, ever-changing pattern of light and shade in this ‘garden kitchen’.

为了平衡厨房东端花园/槐树的开放性，主卧室被从原来的平面图中稍稍推出，在厨房的南端创造了一个亲密的庭院。庭院由一个姿态优美的外部壁炉激活，为厨房的前景带来了戏剧性，同时创造了一个外墙来完成 “花园房间”。

To balance with the openness of the garden/Jacaranda outlook at the east end of the kitchen, the master bedroom has been pushed slightly out from the original floor plan, creating an intimate courtyard at the south end of the kitchen. The court yard is activated by a gestural external fireplace, that brings foreground drama to the kitchen outlook, while creating an external wall to complete the ‘garden room’.

累积的结果是对传统昆士兰住宅的低调重新诠释，从其具有挑战性的场地环境中提取其独特的优势和特色。

The cumulative result is an understated re-interpretation of the traditional Queenslander, that extracts its unique strengths and distinctiveness from its challenging site context.
