Tato Architects与Phorm architecture合作在澳大利亚布里斯班设计了一座高高的山坡住宅。这座两层的住宅总面积只有185平方米，它结合了室内和室外空间，顺应了实验住宅建筑的发展趋势。建筑师这样描述他们的任务,” 该项目试图用全新的观点来找到半户外空间和环境之间内在的舒适感，和它在连接人们与周围气候，城市和社区的力量。”
布里斯班市是澳大利亚昆士兰州的首府，这个区域的常见的住宅是一种有具体建筑风格的被 “房子”，一种传统的有外廊的木制吊脚楼。这种建筑元素提供了室内阴影和可以招待客人的过度空间。这种现有的房子被重新提起，以日本住宅的极简风格为意向，并计划在此风格的基础上在下层做出延伸。室内天花板被设计成几何三角形的矩阵，这是建筑的交叉突出元素的结果，它提供了额外的室外、半私密的生活空间。
“藏在屋檐下的巨大空隙挡住了布里斯班巨大的阳光，” Tato Architects描述。“因为倾斜的玻璃的光线反射和穿透，内部和外部景观错综复杂地的混合在一起，并且在玻璃门打开的时候，融合到了一起。” 一个不太传统的室内元素涉及到宽敞的岛式厨房及其与中央楼梯的相互作用。木头在开敞的楼梯上延伸，在金属栏杆处终止。这种设计理念利用了有限的面积，为居民提供了充足的准备空间。建筑师把日本生活的元素无缝地融合在一个体现了昆士兰建筑的许多方面的结构中。
tato architects, in collaboration with phorm architecture + design, has designed an elevated hillside dwelling in brisbane, australia. the two-story home, which contains a total living area of only 185 square meters, follows current trends in experimental, residential architecture by combining interior and exterior spaces. the architects describe their mission,_ ‘the project seeks to initiate a fresh outlook to reclaim the comfort inherent in interfaces between semi-outdoor spaces and the environment, and its power to connect people to their surrounding climate, cities, and communities.’_
the city of brisbane is the capital of the australian state of queensland. it is home to a specific style of architecture called the ‘queenslander’ — a traditional style of wooden stilted house complete with a veranda. this architectural element provides shade in the interior and an intermediate space to accept guests. the existing home was raised, with the intention of creating an extension underneath with the style and minimal feel of a japanese dwelling. the interior ceiling was designed as a matrix of geometric triangles — a result of the intersecting protruding elements of the structure that provide additional outdoor, semi-private living spaces.
_‘t__he large apertures are hidden under the eaves, shielded from the strong brisbane sun,’_ describes tato architects._‘due to the reflections and permeations of light from the slanted glass, the inner and outer landscapes are intricately mingled together, and merge into one when the glass doors are left wide open.’ _aless traditional element of the interior involves the extensive kitchen island and its interaction with the central staircase. the wooden island extends over the open staircase, resting on the metal banister. this design concept utilizes the limited area, providing the inhabitants with a surplus of preparation space. the architects seamlessly integrate elements of japanese living into a structure that embodies many aspects of local, queensland architecture.
