来自事务所的描述：这个位于约克郡以东的崭新两层砖与灰泥结合的房子，以其特立独行的外立面区别于邻家的房子：一个超级现代的几何线形设计的缩影。

From the architect. This totally transformed, two-storey, brick and stucco home in East York, is first distinguished from its neighbouring homes by its maverick appearance: an epitome of super-modern geometric linear design.

这个线性设计的灵感诞生于狭窄基地的挑战。尽管测量起来也只有二十英尺宽，但是内部空间却给人以更加宽敞的感觉，只是为了达到协调线形设计的设计意图，并且创造性的开发了开放空间。这个设计的结果就是营造了一种宽敞的空间，自然光线的进入丝毫不受阻碍。有意的定向贯穿房间来创造了一个可以产生一个有活力生存空间的光明。

The inspiration for this linear design was born out of the challenge of the narrow lot. Although the lot measures a mere twenty feet in width, the interior space feels much more expanded due to the designer’s attention to harmonious linear design and creative use of open space. The results are a feeling of spaciousness and unhindered flow of natural daylight, intentionally directed through the house to create a luminosity that produces a dynamic living space.

这个房子的重点在于前角。这个空间产生于两个狭长的矩形窗子：其中一个在竖直方向的窗子高于两层楼的高度，另一个水平方向的窗子，搭配一排灯，引导你到达被遮掩的主入口。当你进入时你对面便是一个包含无隔层楼板的玻璃塔，在它上方是来自天窗的双层灯光，在它的后面，你会注意到这个单梁楼梯看起来像悬挂的并漂浮在开放空间里。这个主要的大厅楼梯因为有这个它旁边两层玻璃塔而产生了一种释放感与治愈性。

The focal point of this home is the front cube corner. Cradling this are two elongated, rectangular windows: one towering up vertically to the height of two stories and the other positioned horizontally, and paired with a row of lights that lead you to the sheltered main entrance at the side of the house. As you enter you face a glass tower containing a floorless, double-storey well of light from the skylight above it, and directly behind this, you will notice that the single-stringer stairs seem to hang suspended and float in open space. This main foyer staircase has a liberating and therapeutic effect from the two-storey glass tower next to it.

在主要楼层，甚至尽管居家房间只有十六英尺宽，卧室面积只有十四英尺宽，这里也并没有感觉受到约束的感觉。这都要归功于位于卧室的十一英尺天花板与分离的地板设计，这就消除了对于灯光缺乏的墙体的制约。当你站在房子前面面对着生活区域，一个来自于细长窗子的盘旋灯光覆盖了这个房间的三个立面，展现出了一种全景视角。房子的后面位于家庭房间另一侧，那里在后部平台旁边有一个外凸的窗子，它从主层楼板延伸到了地下一层。你会情不自禁的沐浴在阳光与这开敞空间里。在第二层，巨大的窗口设计用在卧室与走廊之间的衔接墙体上，让开放的感觉弥漫。这楼的另一个非常特殊的特征是步入阳台，它可以连接卧室与主套房。

On the main floor, even though the family room is sixteen feet wide and the living room area is fourteen feet wide, there is no feeling of restriction due to the eleven-foot ceiling in the living room and the split-floor design, which eliminates the need for some light-restricting walls. As you face the living area in the front of the house, a panoramic view of light hovers from the elongated windows covering three sides of this room. On the other side in the family room at the back area of the house, there is a convex expansion window beside the back deck, which stretches from the main floor into the basement level. You can’t help but feel washed in daylight and open space. On the second floor, large windowed openings have been designed in an adjoining wall between the bedrooms and hallway, to allow the feeling of openness to pervade. Another very special feature on this floor is a walk-out balcony that has window connections to a bedroom and master ensuite nearby.

线形设计模型贯穿了这个房子。自你初次看到并体会它，连续干净的线条定义了这个空间，营造了和谐的，流动性的，平衡的空间。因此，它被称为线性的房子。

The linear design model is consistent throughout the home. Continuous, clean lines define the space from your first glance and throughout, creating harmony, flow and balance. Thus it became known as The Linear House.
