这是一个具有内部和外部空间的房子。这个空间有很大的空气容量，覆盖着屋顶和半透明的表面，可以阻挡雨水和风。然而，它没有隔热性能。它可以被定位在日本传统的土炕或北海道房屋中看到的阳光房的延伸上。在这里，我们称它为 “露台”，因为它是一个半户外的空间，明亮而开放。从春天到秋天，它都是生活空间的一部分。而在冬天，它就像一个玻璃温室，可以抵御严寒。
This is a house with a space that looks like an interior as well as an exterior. The space has a large air volume, covered with a roof and translucent surface which keep off the rain and wind. However, it doesn’t have heat insulation performance. It could be positioned on the extension of the Japanese traditional earth floor or the sun room seen in houses of Hokkaido. Here we call it a “terrace” because it is a half-exterior space that is bright and open. From spring to autumn, it works as a part of the living space. And in winter it works like a glasshouse, which keeps off the severe cold.
“小房子”
这是一种廉价但高度绝缘的功能性小房子。室内空间的占地面积非常小；53平方米。二楼的私人房间是一个阁楼空间，就像一个 “藏身处”。它的室内空间小，具有建筑成本低廉、易于清洁、水电费低廉等优点。
“Small house”
This is an inexpensive yet highly insulated functional small house. The footprint of indoor space is very small; 53 square meters. The private room on the second floor is an attic space like a “hiding place”. Its small indoor space has advantages such as inexpensive construction cost and easy cleaning, and low cost of utility fee.
“大露台”
这个26平方米的大露台，是室内空间的一半，与室内空间同时具有连续关系和不连续关系。连续性有助于使小房子感到宽敞，而非连续性有助于使室内空间的热力紧凑。
“Large terrace”
This 26 square meters large terrace, which is the half of the indoor space, has a continuous relationship and a discontinuous relationship with the indoor space at the same time. Continuity contributes to make the small house feels spacious, and discontinuity contributes to make the indoor space thermally compact.
