当今的中国飞速发展，人们的居住环境也有了跨越的提高，从物质的满足提升到了精神美学的满足，然而本案基础是19年前建成老别墅，原始结构局限于19年前的设计，只能停放自行车的B1地下室，低矮阴暗极其难用；一层突兀的错层设计、太小楼梯设计，动线交叉等问题；二层为卧室层，存在合用卫生间的情况等，三层为阁楼，屋顶斜梁导致层高也非常局限。

With the rapid development of China today, people's living environment has also been improved, from material satisfaction to spiritual aesthetic satisfaction. However, this case is based on the construction of old villas 19 years ago, and the original structure is limited to the design of 19 years ago. Only the B1 basement of the bicycle can be parked, low and dark and extremely difficult to use; A sudden layer of staggered design, too small staircase design, the intersection of moving lines and other issues; The second floor is the bedroom floor, where there is a shared toilet, etc.. The third floor is the attic, and the roof inclined beam causes the layer Gaoye to be very limited.

在经过现场一番勘察、和主人的交流后，设计决定对建筑先动个“手术”，对地下层的标高进行改造，以符合当下使用的尺度，同时对东面的地面进行开挖，设计私密的下沉庭院，从而满足地下层的通风、光线问题。

After a survey of the scene and exchanges with the owner, the design decided to "operate" the building first, transform the elevation of the underground layer to meet the current scale of use, and at the same time excavate the eastern ground. Design a private sunken courtyard to meet the ventilation and light problems of the underground layer.
