坎特伯雷屋是一个紧凑的城市住宅。它包含两间卧室、一间媒体室和一个完全独立的客人套房，面积只有1680平方英尺。该住宅的形式受到传统狗窝的启发；一个院子作为生活空间的核心，将两侧的紧凑空间延伸到一个私人的户外空间。
The Canterbury House is a compact urban home. It contains two bedrooms, a media room, and a fully detached guest suite in only 1680 square feet. The home’s form is inspired by traditional dog-trot houses; a courtyard serves as the core of the living space, extending the compact spaces on either side into a private outdoor space.
所有三间卧室以及主要的生活空间都可以看到院子，在保持隐私的同时带来了丰富的自然光线。
All three bedrooms as well as the main living space have views into the courtyard, bringing an abundance of natural light while maintaining privacy.
房子的外墙是用白色的LaHabra灰泥覆盖的，除了院子，院子里使用的是garapa雨幕系统。这些材料分割了白色的外壳，露出了温暖的内部，强调了空间是建筑的焦点。
The exterior of the house is clad in white LaHabra stucco, except for the courtyard, which uses a garapa rain screen system. The materials split the white shell to reveal the warm interior, emphasizing the space as the focal point of the building.
院子用钢制百叶窗遮住了德克萨斯州的强烈阳光。钢制百叶窗在下午阳光最猛烈的时候为窗户遮阳，并在院子里创造出无限变化的阴影游戏。
The courtyard is shaded from the intense Texas sun with a steel brise-soleil. The steel louvers shade windows in the afternoon when the sun is at its most harsh and create an infinitely changing play of shadows in the courtyard.
房子的内饰以一种高尚的方式使用适度的材料。白色subway瓷砖和充足的日光创造了明亮的浴室空间。棒状框架和胶合板窗台创造了座位区，并将温暖带入生活空间和卧室。
The house’s interiors use modest materials in an elevated manner. White subway tile and ample daylight create bright bathroom spaces. Stick framing and plywood bay windows create seating areas and bring warmth into the living space and bedrooms.
