我们的客户与我们联系，要求为他们现有的房产设计一个扩展部分，以满足不断增长的家庭的需要。在这种情况下，由于场地面积小，需要采取独特的方法来达到所需的结果。
Our client contacted us with a request to design an extension to their existing property in order to accommodate the needs of a growing family. In this case, the small area of the site required a unique approach to achieve the required outcomes.
作为回应，我们设计了一个灵活的、多用途的工作室，只需要很少的土地。它包括两个睡眠区、一个卫生间和一个宽敞的生活空间，有可能被安排成一个生活、厨房和用餐空间。我们安排了建筑的形状，以尽量减少对邻居的影响，同时也控制了阳光和窗户的视野，从而在不牺牲隐私的情况下创造了一种空间感。
In response, we designed a flexible, multi-purpose studio that requires very little land. It includes two sleeping areas, a bathroom and a generous living space with the potential to be arranged into a living, kitchen and dining space. We arranged the shape of the building to minimise amenity impacts to the neighbours, while also controlling sunlight and views from windows, thereby creating a sense of space without sacrificing privacy.
由于该建筑位于一条巷道旁，我们还能够为它提供自己的私人入口，将其与主屋分开。客户现在可以满足他们对更多空间的直接需求，同时享有对未来使用的灵活选择。在不影响市容的情况下，他们现在可以在一个共享的花园空间里享受自己的建筑景观。
As the building was positioned beside a laneway, we were also able to provide it with its own private entrance, separating it from the main home. The clients can now cater to their immediate need for more space while enjoying flexible choices for future use. Without impacting amenity they are now able to enjoy views of their own architecture across a shared garden space.
