在房子里住了一两年后，我们发现它对处理新西兰的极端气候是多么没有准备。 大量的单层玻璃和极少的隔热材料使夏天和冬天都难以忍受（我们地区的温度从40°C降至-10°C）。房子朝西，在冬天，由于一排树木的遮挡，直到深夜才会有阳光。室内在夏天太亮，冬天太暗。室外是不愉快的，因为没有地方可以躲避元素，特别是风。
After living in the house for a year or two, we discovered just how unprepared it was to handle the extremes of New Zealand’s climate. Abundant single glazing and minimal insulation made both summer and winter unbearable (our region experiences temperatures from 40°C down to -10°C). The house faces west and is sun-challenged in winter due to a line of trees that overshadow the property until late morning. The interior was too bright in summer and too dark in winter. Outdoors was unpleasant as there was nowhere to shelter from the elements, in particular the wind.
为了在有限的预算内以可持续的方式解决这些问题，我们需要实用：简单坚固的细节设计；能够由一个人用基本的技能和工具来制作；在木材雨幕的外部覆盖连续的绝缘板；容易获得和经济的材料，能够由一个人举起；尽量减少建筑垃圾；细节设计应该足够灵活，以便有效地利用面板的碎片。
To solve these issues in a sustainable manner on a limited budget, we needed to get practical: simple robust detailing; capable of being fabricated by a single person with basic skills and tools; continuous panel insulation clad externally behind a timber rain screen; readily available and economical materials, capable of being hefted by a single person; minimized construction waste; detailing should be flexible enough to allow efficient use of panel offcuts
客厅增加了一个扩展部分，以帮助管理整个房子的热性能。它被称为 "引擎室"，使用高级玻璃来捕捉早晨的阳光，并将产生的热量储存在下面的大规模蓄热区。通过使用一个由管道和空气捕集器组成的被动系统，它在阳光明媚的冬日为房屋提供了温暖的空气，防止热量在夜间流出，并（通过一个高层挡板）在夏季从房屋中吸取多余的热量。
An extension to the living room was added to help manage the thermal performance of the entire house. Called the “Engine Room” it uses high-level glazing to capture the morning sun, and stores generated heat in a mass thermal storage zone below. Using a passive system of ducts and air traps, it warms air from the house on sunny winter days, prevents heat from flowing out by night, and (via a high-level flap), draws excess heat from the house in summer.
预备室 "是一个户外房间，提供避风和避雨的保护。它是环绕住宅并进入花园的露台的起点，在房子周围形成了不同的空间袋。
The “Ready Room” is an outdoor room offering protection from the wind and rain. It is the starting point for a deck that wraps around the dwelling and into the garden, resulting in varied pockets of space around the house.
生活区的阳光被一个深深的门廊悬垂所缓和，限制了下午的亮度和窗户上的加热负荷。门廊的天花板、露台、窗边的座椅和准备室的屋顶结合在一起，将漫射和缓冲的光线反射到空间。一个带有入口大厅、洗衣房和车间的新车库，以及花园里的大型光伏阵列，完成了我们对该物业的空间干预。
Sunlight to the living area is moderated by a deep porch overhang which limits afternoon brightness and heating loads on the windows. The porch ceiling, deck, window seats, and Ready Room roof combine to reflect diffuse and buffered light into the space. A new garage with an entry lobby, laundry, and workshop, and a large PV array in the garden complete our spatial interventions to the property.
