我们称乔和林肯的房子为 “金矿”。他们在90年代末以大约50美元的价格买下了朱塞佩和弗朗西斯卡逃往布利恩的房产，现在他们不能再为精品酒馆搬家了。他们买的时候，房子已经倒了，所以就请来了林肯那个躲躲闪闪的朋友来建造。20年后，他们尝到了劳动的果实，扩建部分正以一种缓慢的速度自行拆除。
We call Jo and Lincoln’s house, ‘the goldmine’. They bought the property in the late 90s for about $50 off Giuseppe and Francesca fleeing for Bulleen and now they can’t move for boutique wine bars. The house when they bought it was falling down and so in stepped in Lincoln’s dodgy mate to build. 20 years on they bore the fruit of that labour, the extension was demolishing itself at a leisurely pace.
乔和林肯利用重建的机会，重新设计他们的生活。以前，他们的生活和沐浴区以庞贝式的死亡怀抱紧紧拥抱着老别墅，他们选择将生活延伸到花园，充分利用乔的最绿色的拇指。
Jo and Lincoln used the opportunity of rebuilding to redesign their lives. Where previously their living and bathing areas had hugged the old cottage in a Pompeiian death embrace, they opted to extend their lives into the garden, making the most of Jo’s greenest of thumbs.
老房子是典型的维多利亚时代的双门风化板。前面的卧室各有一个窗户，一个长长的走廊。这条走廊是我们用来确定新扩建部分位置的轴线。现在，当你站在敞开的前门时，你可以看到所有的扩展部分和后花园，一个可爱的视觉连接。这对我们和我们的客户都很重要。大厅的扩建部分通过玻璃连接，向下经过洗衣房、浴室和学习区，进入一个充满光线的厨房和起居室，可以用滑动屏风隔开。这些屏风有一个额外的个人触摸。乔拍摄的朗斯代尔角码头的照片被印在屏幕上，这是他们家的一个特别的地方，是美好时光永远的余温。
The old house is the typical double fronted Victorian weatherboard. A window each for the front bedrooms, a long high hallway. This hallway was the axis we used in siting the new extension. Now, when you stand at the open front door, you can see all the way through the extension to the back garden, a lovely bit of visual connectivity. That was important to us and our clients. The hall way extension steps down through a glazed link, down past laundry and bathroom and study area, opening out into a light filled kitchen and sitting room, which can be separated with sliding screens. These screens have an extra personal touch. An image taken by Jo of the pier at Point Lonsdale, a special place for the family, is printed onto them, an ever present remainder of good times.
房子的新区域没有紧紧抓住旧建筑，而是脱离了它，让它重新呼吸。选择平坦的镀锌金属板作为覆盖层，是对林肯作为水管工行业的回馈，也是对内部使用的温暖材料的故意反转。这些都是为热爱色彩和生活的乔而设计的。地板上的黄色混凝土、橙色的厨房和红色的铁皮墙，都是为了增加温暖，并与环绕在你周围的花园的绿色植物形成对比。
Instead of clinging to the old building, the new areas of the house break away and let it breathe again. The cladding choice of flat galvanize sheet metal, is a call-back to Lincoln’s trade as a plumber, as well as a deliberate reversal of the warm materials used inside. These were for Jo, lover of colour and life! Yellow concrete on the floor, orange kitchen and red ironbark walls, all seek to add warmth and a contrasting tone to ever present greenery of the garden that surrounds you.
天花板上的Solomit为经常没有它的平面增加了质感，因为客户的儿子身高215厘米，他的大部分时间都在靠近天花板，比通常情况下更接近天花板。它的声学特性也被感觉到，为木材和混凝土地板提供了一个衬托。一个保护性的长廊为这个花园提供了一个缓冲区，挡住了北方和西方的阳光和热量，用坚硬的材料、镀锌钢和混凝土来对比内部。
The Solomit on the ceiling adds texture to a plane so often without it, for the bene?t of the client’s son, who at 215cm tall, spends most of his time closer to ceilings than is usual. Its acoustic properties are also felt, offering a foil to the timber and concrete floor. A protective veranda provides a buffer zone to this garden, warding off the north and western rays and heat, in hard, tough material, Galvanised steel and concrete to contrast inside.
唯一的延续，是屋檐上的Solomit，如果有的话，是豌豆秸秆覆盖物的寓意。整体姿态是和平、稳定、光明和舒适，而且，我敢说，是新与旧。但最重要的是，它是关于与你的花园一起生活，并在你的花园周围生活，在地面上，感觉你的脚已经扎进了家的感觉。
The only continuation, the Solomit on the soffit, an allegory for pea straw mulch if ever there was one. The overall gesture is one of peace, stability, light and comfort, and, dare I say it, old and new. But most importantly, it is about living with and around your garden, being on ground level and feeling like your feet are planted in the feeling of home.
