该项目旨在对伦敦南部的一栋维多利亚式住宅从后方进行扩建，并对阁楼进行改造。房屋的主人是一对从事平面设计和摄影的夫妇以及他们的两个小孩，在项目过程中，建筑师与业主进行了密切的合作。

A rear extension and loft conversion to a modest Victorian terrace house in South London. The project evolved through a process of co-creation with the clients – a graphic designer and photography agent along with their two young children.

▼住宅外观，exterior view

既有的住宅比花园层高出1米，为了将住宅与花园连接起来，建筑师创建了一个阶梯式的内部景观，通过层级的变化来定义不同的功能空间。厨房、餐厅和非正式的休闲空间被分布在这种自然的地形之上，使每位家庭成员在做不同事情的时候也能够分享整个空间。

The existing house was 1m higher than garden level – in order to connect the family with their garden, a stepped internal landscape was created that defined different uses within a larger family space through changes in floor level. Thus a kitchen, dining space and informal seating area are defined by their own topography, meaning the whole family can share the space whilst doing different things.

扩建的部分是一个带有倾斜屋顶的简洁体量，安装以大尺寸的枢轴门，能够将远处花园的景观一览无余。背部立面上的窗户与侧面扩建部分的玻璃天窗相互对齐，带来自然光和天空的视野。简洁的屋顶缓和了天花板高度变化带来的复杂感，在与内部空间和谐共存的同时也为外部赋予了独特的几何形状。

The extension is articulated as a simple pitched roof form with a large pivot door framing an uninterrupted view of the garden beyond. A slot window on the rear elevation aligns with the glazed roof light over the side extension to bring in daylight and views of the sky. The simple roof form rationalises a more complex array of ceiling heights and boxed structure that deals with existing elements internally, while reflecting the geometry of the existing house externally.
