业主是一对有两个年幼孩子的职业夫妇。他们要求有一个四居室的房子，能够利用其滨水位置，提供一个室内/室外的生活方式，并充满自然光。这个房子的设计包括除家具以外的所有室内元素。该地块位于一个老的滨水区，正在进行原有房屋的更换。原有的地势从街道/原有的房屋水平面向下倾斜6英尺到海堤的顶部。新房子被抬高了两英尺，以符合目前的防洪规定。
The Owners are a professional couple with two young children. They asked for a four-bedroom house that would take advantage of its waterfront location, would provide an indoor/outdoor lifestyle, and would be filled with natural light. The design of this house includes all interior elements other than furnishings. The site resides in an older waterfront neighborhood that is undergoing the replacement of the original houses. Original grade sloped down six feet from the street/original house level to the top of the seawall. The new house is elevated an additional two feet to comply with current flood regulations.
房子里的主要空间沿着水边排列，以捕捉首选的景观，并向泳池笼子开放，以实现无虫的室内/室外生活。一个带玻璃的庭院为没有水景的室内循环带来了光线、植被和天空。该设计将项目组织成两个主要的体量，媒体空间和办公室既是两者之间的联系，又是两者之间的分隔。媒体空间可以根据需要打开来观看室内庭院。玻璃门厅提供了从街道上瞥见内部庭院的机会。入夜后，低水平的庭院照明成为流通的夜灯。
The main spaces in the house are aligned along the waterfront to capture the preferred views and open into the pool cage to allow for bug-free indoor/outdoor living. A glassed-in courtyard brings light, vegetation, and sky to the interior circulation where views of the water are not provided. The design organizes the program into two main volumes with the media space and office as both the link and separation between the two. The media space can be opened to view the interior courtyard as desired. The glass foyer provides glimpses of the interior courtyard from the street. After dark, low-level courtyard lighting becomes a night light for circulation.
设计中注意到了在房屋中移动的体验。天花板高度的过渡被用来定义空间边界和衔接流通。辐射状的木质天花板被置于主要空间之上，使自然光从上方洒入这些空间，并创造出一种增强的开放感和轻盈的精神。弯曲的屋顶形式与设计的严肃的直线性质形成对比，给房子带来一种轻松的品质，使其居民感到振奋。内部和外部都使用了混凝土柱子、横梁和地板。外墙主要是水平壁板，檐口是灰泥。橱柜和空间分隔元素是喷漆的木材。窗户和滑动玻璃门是阳极氧化铝的。
Attention is given in the design to the experience of moving through the house. Ceiling height transitions are used to define spatial boundaries and to articulate circulation. Radiused wood ceilings are placed over the main spaces allowing natural light to spill into these spaces from above and creating an enhanced sense of openness and a lightness of spirit. The curved roof forms contrast with the serious rectilinear nature of the design bringing a lighthearted quality to the house which is uplifting to its inhabitants. Concrete columns, beams, and floors are used inside and outside. The exterior walls are mainly horizontal siding and soffits are stucco. Cabinetry and space dividing elements are painted wood. Windows and sliding glass doors are of anodized aluminum.
