该房屋位于一个旧的住宅区，在过去的一个世纪里，单层房屋占主导地位，最近的重建活动中，多层房屋如雨后春笋般在社区内突兀地出现。Pitch House被保留为单层房屋，以保持附近房屋的现有规模。
The house is situated in an old residential district with predominant single-storey houses for the past century, and the recent reconstruction activities has seen sprouting of multiple-storey houses rising awkwardly within the neighbourhood. The Pitch House has been retained as a single storey house to preserve the existing scale of the houses in the neighbourhood.
单一坡度的屋顶被设计成远离相邻房屋的三层楼高的侧墙，屋顶的高度定位较低，屋顶角度平缓。房子前面的汽车门廊屋顶与主屋顶形成了相同角度的分层效果。
A single pitch roof is designed to slope away from the three-storey high party wall of the adjacent house, and the roof is positioned low in height with a gentle roof angle. The car porch roof at the front of the house forms a layering effect with the main roof in the same angle.
Pitch House的设计形式很简单，房子的家人可以在这个岛的郊区放松身心，享受宁静。
The Pitch House is designed with a simple form, where the family of the house can unwind and enjoy tranquility in this suburban part of the island.
室内空间的规模是亲密的，起居室向前面的天井和花园开放，作为家庭活动和偶尔的户外用餐的扩展空间。
The interior space is intimate in scale, with the Living room opening out to the front patio and towards the garden, to serve as an extended space for family activities and occasional outdoor dining.
在房子的中间还插入了一个室内的开放式庭院，供主卧室享受户外空间。
An indoor open courtyard is also inserted in the middle of the house for the Master Bedroom to enjoy outdoor space.
与其简单的形式相一致，该房屋也采用了简单的材料。
在这个土地稀缺、城市发展过度拥挤的小岛上，Pitch House仍然是单层的，尺寸也很小，因为它悄悄地与周围的环境融为一体。
In line with its simple form, the house also employs simplicity in its materials.
In this tiny island where land is scarce and the city is overcrowded with development, the Pitch House remains single-storey and petite in size as it blends quietly with its neighbourhood.
