这是一个维多利亚时代的半独立式小房子的戏剧性转变。尽管有三层楼，但它的深度很浅，比例就像别墅。
This is a dramatic transformation of a small, semi-detached Victorian house. Despite being arranged over three floors, it was so shallow in depth that the proportions were cottage like.
我们将地面降低，并挖掘了花园的很大一部分，为一个主要由玻璃制成的两层楼的扩展部分腾出空间。现有的后墙被推平，用传统的伦敦砖重建，与现代玻璃形成对比。
We dropped the floor at lower ground level, and excavated a substantial portion of the garden to make space for a two-storey extension made predominantly in glass. The existing rear wall was flattened off and rebuilt in traditional London stock brick, in contrast with the contemporary glazing.
在内部，我们打开了所有三层的空间，在传统的外墙后面创造出比例宽松的房间。
Internally, we opened up the space on all three levels to create generously proportioned rooms behind a traditional facade.
一楼以前有三个小房间，现在专门用于主人套房。我们拆除了天花板，暴露出倾斜的屋顶，并对其进行了重组，以消除任何可见的桁架。双层高的空间在传统的围护结构中具有现代感，并配有三扇木制的窗。
The first floor, formerly three poky rooms, is dedicated to the master suite. We removed the ceiling, exposing the pitched roof, which was restructured to remove any visible trusses. The double-height space has a contemporary feel within a traditional envelope, complete with three timber sash windows.
在一楼，有一个客房和浴室，以及一个接待室/书房，可以俯瞰双层高度的空间。一个巨大的无框玻璃角窗使花园的景色一览无余。一个小的上层露台可以从书房进入。一个新的钢制楼梯将这一层与下面的开放式生活区连接起来。光线从双层高度的空隙中涌入这个房间，由于在地下，隐私得以保持而不失华丽。
On the ground floor there is a guest room and bathroom and a reception room/study which overlooks the double height void. A huge frameless glass corner window gives open views of the garden.A small upper terrace is accessible from the study. A new steel staircase connects this level with the open-plan living area below. Light pours in to this room from the double height void and, being below ground, privacy is maintained without a loss of splendour.
一扇大的推拉门通向下面的露台，外部楼梯回到花园层。
A large sliding door leads onto the lower terrace and external stairs go back up to garden level.
