秉承这个中世纪现代住宅的原始设计师Joseph Esherick的精神，日光是这个综合现代改造的主要目标。坐落在旧金山太平洋高地区更大的住宅中，这个项目使原来的设计适应了今天的环境。新设计的核心是一个大型的多层室内花园中庭，旨在将户外空间纳入住宅内。

Channeling the spirit of this mid-century modern home’s original designer, Joseph Esherick, daylight was a primary objective for this comprehensive contemporary transformation. Situated amongst much larger homes in the Pacific Heights district of San Francisco, this project adapts the original design to its present-day context. Central to the new design is a large multi-story interior garden atrium that is intended to capture outdoor space within the home.

这个巨大的天空照明空间作为一个空间枢纽，将日光深入到住宅的内部。它的特点是有一个横向的桥和一个雕刻的木墙，当光线在空间中移动时，可以过滤和雕刻。

This vastly sky-lit space serves as a spatial hub, pulling daylight deep into the home’s interior. It features a transverse bridge and a sculpted wood wall that filters and carves light as it moves through the space.

地球和天空之间的对话通过住宅的混凝土、木材、玻璃、钢和散射光的材料调色板得到了加强。该住宅曾经黑暗的内部被完全改造，使用了克制的材料，反射、折射和雕刻光线，因为它被捕获。沉重和轻盈的并列关系贯穿于最小的细节中。除了这个中庭空间，房子还通过后立面重新建立了它与景观的关系。一个新的下层将住宅的内部与室外生活空间和景观联系起来。后立面和相邻的墙体将室内和室外空间重新定位为景观和城市景观，同时对相邻的结构进行编辑，以保证彼此的隐私。

The dialogue between earth and sky is reinforced through the home’s material palette of concrete, wood, glass, steel, and diffused light. The home’s once dark interior is completely transformed using restrained materials that reflect, refract, and sculpt light as it is captured. The juxtaposition of heavy and light is carried through to the smallest details. In addition to this atrium space, the house re-establishes its relationship to the landscape by way of its rear façade. A new lower level physically connects the home’s interior to outdoor living space and the landscape. The rear façade and adjacent walls reorient both indoor and outdoor space towards the landscape and city views beyond while editing neighboring structures for mutual privacy.
