在Acute House项目中，建筑师成功地克服了足以难倒许多建筑师的苛刻条件，将一座位于街角狭小三角型基地中的遗产建筑转化为了有着与场地呼应的尖锐边角，同时满足21世纪需求的紧凑型住宅。

Acute House is the transformation of a ‘renovator’s nightmare’ into a compact 21st century family home. The severe limitations of a tiny, very triangular site and the demanding heritage context have resulted in a pointy new wedge of house that is designed to exploit its problems.

建于维多利亚时代的破旧檐板小屋已无法为人们提供可以遮风挡雨的安全居所，然而其古朴的外形仍然深得人心，受到了邻里与其所有者的喜爱。

无论是已经弯曲的檐板、篱笆还是诸如门把、通风管、门牌等琐碎饰物，建筑师竭尽所能为其找到再利用的价值，让时光留下的痕迹得以在新建筑中重现。如同对待博物馆中的脆弱藏品一般，建筑师小心地将这些旧物拆除、分类、存放再移入其原处的新底座之中，不仅让其重焕新生，也让古老的建筑通过另一种方式延续了下来。

The original, and extremely decrepit, Victorian weatherboard cottage had become impossible to inhabit but was well loved by the neighbourhood as well as its new owners.

We tried to retain its weathered character by re-using as much original fabric as possible from warped weatherboards and fence palings to random accumulations such as door knobs, vents and street numbers. Like fragile museum artefacts, these were carefully removed, labelled, stored and re-installed in their original location on a new mount that not only highlights their charms by contrast but allows the house to live again in a new way.

古今相融 Heritage-ous-ness + Context

这座全新的楔形住宅造型独特却又与周边的街区遥相呼应，同时也对基地及其所处的环境做出了回应。建筑师直面挑战，让这座位于平凡街区中重要却似乎已无可救药的地标性建筑重获了新生，用全然现代的表现手法和建造方式演绎了古老材料的无限可能。

The resulting new wedge of house is designed as an unusual but highly responsive approach to the character of the surrounding neighbourhood, and to the challenges and opportunities for responsive architecture presented by the site and its immediate context. It takes on the challenge of preserving an important but almost unsalvageable local landmark by working within the general typology of the surrounding neighbourhood, “rhyming” with its housing stock while remaining resolutely contemporary in its expression and articulation.

紧凑布局 Tight

建筑的形态体量尽可能地利用了这块不寻常场地的空间优势，创造出一个有别于传统住宅建筑的空间格局以及生活方式。家庭生活所需的基本空间单元被放置于场地较为开阔一侧的不同高度之上，竖向的楼梯空间串联起高低错落的功能分区，无需任何隔墙、走廊或门便可保证各个空间独立与私密性，最大化了空间的利用效率。交通空间在各层中皆形成了环路，让细长的空间无论是在视觉上还是空间感受上都不显狭小和拥挤。

To take advantage of the opportunities of such an unusual site, the geometry required an adjustment to the layout and lifestyle expectations of a conventional family house. Multiple levels were required to accommodate the basic space needs of a family home and these were accommodated where site geometry best suited them. These spaces are distributed over split levels with the vertical space of the stairwell providing visual privacy and a sense of definition without wasting precious space on internal walls, corridors or doors. Continuous circulation is provided through each floor with no dead-ends, allowing spaces to be kept lean yet feeling spacious and unclogged – visually or physically.

虚拟庭院 Virtual Gardening

场地苛刻的建造条件让政府部门破例允许建筑可以100%的利用所有的基地，最大化了建筑空间的面积，然而这也导致了这座住宅没有了任何的室外空间。因而室内空间在满足家庭所有居住需求的同时，也要营造出室外空间的氛围。楼梯处的草绿色地毯、悬挂于空中的植被、鱼缸中游动的鱼儿与水草以及每个房间中可以向外眺望的窗户减弱了失去庭院空间的遗憾。贯通上下的巨大玻璃门让客厅空间如同开放游廊般通透，而位于尖角处的小阳台却让人惊喜的开阔，如同站立在游艇船头般俯瞰着脚下的街道。

While site area limitations and geometry allowed the council to permit building over 100% of the site this advantage came with the counterbalancing disadvantage of 0% outdoor space. As a result, the house interiors had to accommodate the needs of a family as well as providing them with the enjoyments of the great outdoors. This total lack of garden is offset by the artificial internal landscape of the stairwell with lawn green carpets, hanging plants, a central aquarium of aquatic plants and fish and a sunny outlook to every room. Full height sliding doors and screens open up the main living level as a virtual verandah and the pointy, but surprisingly generous, balcony provides the ambience of a yacht in the street.
