该项目是基于一个条件苛刻的场地而设计的：场地宽度只有5.5米，且西向的立面正对着一条铁路。建筑师最终决定将房屋分为两个体量，主要考虑到以下两个因素：一是需要构建一个庭院，在带来日光和自然通风的同时还要阻隔来自铁路的噪音；二是为了实现灵活的空间布局，使房屋可以变成三居室住宅，或拥有一个独立起居室的二居室住宅。

The design for the Two Pavilion house was developed in response to a difficult site. With a 5.5 metre wide, West facing street frontage that overlooked a railway line, the design for this house required a careful approach. The decision to split the house into two pavilions was driven by two factors. One was to create a courtyard that provided daylight and natural ventilation while still acoustically sheltering the house from the adjacent railway line. The second reason was to allow for flexible arrangements of habitation; being that the house can be occupied as a single detached, three bedroom dwelling, or as a two bedroom house with a self-contained bedsit. This created a house that could be occupied by a multi-generational family, provide rental income, incorporate a home office, or a second living area.
