The house is in the Currumbin Valley near the border of Queensland and New South Wales in Australia.

這座房子位於澳洲昆士蘭州和新南威爾士州交界處附近的庫倫賓山谷（Currumbin Valley）。

It's situated in the Currumbin Eco-Village which is an international award winning sustainable community.

它坐落在 Currumbin 生態村，這是一個榮獲國際獎項的可持續發展社區。

We wanted to create a sustainable and functional but beautiful home that was full of light and air and a compact footprint, but also a machine for living.

我們希望打造一個可持續發展、功能齊全而又美觀大方的住宅，既要有充足的光線和空氣，又要有緊湊的佔地面積，同時還是一臺生活機器。

We lived in LA before we moved to Currumbin, so we definitely took a lot of inspiration from Californian modernism, which also in turn took a lot of inspiration from seafaring and the functionality of boat cabins.

在搬到 Currumbin 之前，我們住在洛杉磯，是以我們從加州現代主義中汲取了很多靈感，而加州現代主義又從航海和船艙的功能性中汲取了很多靈感。

I'm Ashby and I'm a choreographer and owner of this house.

我叫阿什比，是一名舞蹈編導，也是這棟房子的主人。

I live here with my husband Jamison who works in film music and our two year old daughter.

我和從事電影音樂工作的丈夫傑米森以及兩歲的女兒住在這裡。

We designed this house alongside Sarah Morley at EcoStrux.

我們與 EcoStrux 公司的 Sarah Morley 一起設計了這座房屋。

The house is 42 square metres, but we also have a deck and a courtyard.

房屋面積為 42 平方米，但我們還有一個露臺和一個庭院。

We bought our block of land at the end of 2020, and we've spent some time both thinking about what to design, but then also designing and designing, and then we eventually completed the build in 2023.

我們在 2020 年年底買下了我們的地塊，我們花了一些時間考慮設計什麼，然後也花了一些時間設計和設計，最終我們在 2023 年完成了建設。

Our block is really very private, bordered on three sides by a nature reserve with a creek down the bottom of the valley.

我們的街區非常隱蔽，三面都是自然保護區，谷底有一條小溪。

It feels as though we're deep in the bush, but we're actually only ten minutes away from the beach and the southern gold coast.

這裡給人的感覺就像是在叢林深處，但實際上，我們距離海灘和南部黃金海岸只有十分鐘的路程。

Where the house is now was actually a crop of juvenile camphor laurel trees, which we did remove, but apart from that we tried to be as sensitive as we could to the natural shape of the block.

現在房子所在的地方實際上是一片幼年樟桂樹林，我們確實移走了這些樹，但除此之外，我們儘量對街區的自然形狀保持敏感。

The floor plan is based on a simple rectangular shape with minimal separation of rooms.

平面圖以簡單的長方形為基礎，儘量減少房間的分隔。

Instead we have zones which are divided by height and soft visual barriers to create privacy.

取而代之的是，我們用高度和軟性視覺屏障來劃分區域，以營造私密性。

Each zone has a specific function and character so that you can experience the house in different ways throughout the day.

每個區域都有特定的功能和特點，讓您可以在一天中以不同的方式體驗這座房子。

We were eager to take advantage of the sloping block to create levels of privacy and openness whilst also being light on the earth of construction.

我們迫切希望利用坡地的優勢，創造出私密性和開放性的層次，同時還能減輕施工的土方量。

At the entrance is a short corridor, open on one side to the kitchen below.

入口處有一條短走廊，一側通向下面的廚房。

To the left is a Tasmanian blackwood bench top made by Peach Furniture, and this is where we place our keys and things when we get in.

左邊是 Peach Furniture 製作的塔斯馬尼亞黑木長凳，我們進門後就把鑰匙和東西放在這裡。

We also added a coat hook at the entrance for jackets and bags.

我們還在入口處增設了一個衣帽鉤，用來掛外套和包。

The interior is clad with whitewashed OSB with Tasmanian oak and stainless steel trim.

內部採用粉刷過的 OSB 板，配以塔斯馬尼亞橡木和不鏽鋼裝飾。

The walls and floors and ceiling are all the same materials, which creates visual continuity.

牆壁、地板和天花板都採用了相同的材料，從而形成了視覺上的連續性。

Our designer Sarah suggested OSB because it's essentially a recycled material which fits with the ethos of the village.

我們的設計師莎拉建議使用 OSB，因為它本質上是一種可回收材料，符合村莊的精神。

Stepping down into the lower level is our living space, which is dominated by a generous built-in banquette.

踏入下層，就是我們的起居空間，寬敞的嵌入式長椅佔據了整個空間。

We made the banquette really long and deep so that we could easily stretch out for daps.

我們把長椅做得又長又深，這樣我們就可以輕鬆地伸展開來吃大餐了。

There's storage underneath, and we have the cushions cut from hospital-grade foam.

下面有儲藏室，我們還用醫院級泡沫塑料切割了坐墊。

They're all covered with organic undried cotton, which can easily be removed and washed in the washing machine.

它們的外層都是未乾的有機棉，可以很容易地拆下來用洗衣機清洗。

The whole lower level is encased in tall, narrow windows, which reach up to the high ceiling.

整個下層都被高而窄的窗戶所包圍，一直延伸到高高的天花板上。

The windows alternate between fixed glass and louvers, which we can adjust to create maximum cross-ventilation and keep the house cool.

窗戶在固定玻璃和百葉窗之間交替使用，我們可以通過調節百葉窗來實現最大程度的交叉通風，保持室內涼爽。

Jackson also made a handy hook from an aluminium tube to reach the higher windows for me.

傑克遜還用鋁管做了一個方便的鉤子，幫我夠到更高的窗戶。

The kitchen is all stainless steel and is galley-style, taking references from a ship kitchen.

廚房全部採用不鏽鋼材料，是參照輪船廚房設計的廚房風格。

We added a wall fan which points down at the kitchen.

我們加裝了一個壁扇，向下對著廚房。

It's mostly there in case we burn something, since we don't have a range hood, but it's also good to have on hot days when there's no breeze.

由於我們沒有抽油煙機，這主要是為了以防萬一燒到東西，但在沒有風的大熱天也很好用。

But with the louver windows, we rarely need it.

但有了百葉窗後，我們就很少需要它了。

The kitchen is quite generous as we wanted it to be functional for long-term daily use.

廚房的空間相當寬敞，因為我們希望它能滿足長期日常使用的功能需求。

The benchtops are all custom-made, but our drawers and all the carcasses are actually IKEA.

檯面都是定製的，但我們的抽屜和所有底座實際上都是宜家的。

We chose to have all drawers in the kitchen rather than cupboards, which we find to be so much more ergonomic, because you can't have anything hidden up the back that you forget about for months upon months.

我們選擇在廚房裡設置所有的抽屜，而不是櫥櫃，我們覺得這樣更符合人體工程學，因為你不能把東西藏在後面，一藏就是幾個月。

We also have a beautiful blackwood shelf next to the fridge nook for glasses and crockery.

冰箱旁邊還有一個漂亮的黑木架子，可以放置玻璃杯和餐具。

We have a single-drawer Fisher & Paykel dishwasher installed under the sink, and a stand-alone 60cm smeg cooktop for the oven.

我們在水槽下安裝了一臺單抽屜斐雪派克洗碗機，烤箱則是一臺獨立的 60 釐米 smg 爐灶。

And we decided not to continue the kickboard under the stove, because the space underneath is really handy for storing our heavy cast iron pots.

我們決定不再在爐灶下面繼續安裝踢腳板，因為下面的空間可以用來存放沉重的鑄鐵鍋。

Having a level of peace and quiet really pays off when you're living in such a small space.

當你生活在如此狹小的空間裡時，擁有一定程度的寧靜確實會讓你受益匪淺。

Jonathan, his job is all about sound, so he's really sensitive to noise.

喬納森的工作與聲音有關，所以他對噪音非常敏感。

Our Mitsubishi fridge is like the Tardis, it runs super quietly and it's fantastic for the space.

我們的三菱冰箱就像 "塔迪斯"（Tardis）一樣，運行起來非常安靜，對空間來說也非常棒。

You can't hear it if you're sitting in the living room or in the bedroom, and the same goes for our dishwasher.

如果你坐在客廳或臥室裡，就聽不到它的聲音，我們的洗碗機也是如此。

You can run it even when the baby's sleeping.

即使寶寶睡著了，您也可以運行它。

We use a tensioned wire across the window behind the sink for cloths and scrubbers to hang out to dry, which has settled a long-standing argument between Jonathan and I on how to best dry a cloth.

我們用一根拉緊的鐵絲橫跨水槽後面的窗戶，用來晾晒抹布和洗潔精，這解決了我和喬納森之間關於如何更好地晾晒抹布的長期爭論。

The edge of our breakfast fence has been cut to an angle so that when you walk by you don't hit your hip.

我們早餐柵欄的邊緣被切割成一個角度，這樣當你走過時就不會撞到臀部。

And it was cantilevered so that we could sit under it and have morning coffee when the weather outside doesn't permit eating out there.

它是懸臂式的，當外面的天氣不允許在外面吃飯時，我們就可以坐在下面喝早茶。

But I also use it for food prep and serving.

但我也用它來準備食物和上菜。

We don't have any walls dividing the main bedroom from the rest of the living space.

我們的主臥室與其他起居空間之間沒有任何隔牆。

However, because of the split level and the dividing furniture, it really feels quite private.

不過，由於採用了分層設計和隔斷傢俱，這裡確實給人一種相當私密的感覺。

For extra privacy, we can enclose the sleeping area with our curtains, which run along the ceiling on repurposed stainless steel balustrade wire.

為了增加私密性，我們可以用窗簾將睡眠區圍起來，窗簾沿著天花板垂掛在重新利用的不鏽鋼欄杆鋼絲上。

We chose just 100% natural linen because it's still light and breezy, allows airflow and light to come through.

我們只選擇了 100% 的天然亞麻布，因為它仍然輕盈、透風、透氣、透光。

We actually were trying to emulate the feeling of a rice paper lantern.

實際上，我們是想模仿宣紙燈籠的感覺。

Our dividing furniture mirrors the pattern created by the windows.

我們的隔斷傢俱與窗戶形成的圖案相映成趣。

It's really multifunctional.

它真的是多功能的。

It is intended as a beautiful piece of furniture, but doubles as a writing desk and has a steel cabinet for extra storage.

它既是一件精美的傢俱，又可作為寫字檯使用，還有一個鋼製櫃子用於額外儲物。

Our wardrobe is actually just a wardrobe nook, which we've installed our own drawers and railings to create a wardrobe space that's just right for us.

我們的衣櫃其實只是一個衣櫃旮旯，我們自己安裝了抽屜和欄杆，創造了一個恰到好處的衣櫃空間。

And we close off the wardrobe with curtains, which actually extend past the wardrobe rather than having a separate door to the bedroom.

我們用窗簾將衣櫃封閉起來，窗簾實際上是延伸過衣櫃的，而不是有一扇單獨的門通向臥室。

The bed is from Melbourne-based designer Object Utility, and it has no protruding corners or legs, making it easier to walk around.

這張床是墨爾本設計師 Object Utility 設計的，沒有突出的邊角或床腳，方便走動。

We have a shelf above the bed for books, but there's also power, ethernet and HDMI connections for a projector.

我們在床頭放了一個書架，還為投影儀配備了電源、以太網和 HDMI 接口。

We have a triptych by artist Miriam Montgomery, and we have quite a few of her pieces in the house, including in our baby's room.

我們有一幅藝術家米里亞姆-蒙哥馬利（Miriam Montgomery）的三聯畫，家裡有不少她的作品，包括嬰兒房裡的。

We have two adjustable wall lamps, one in the kitchen and one over the bed.

我們有兩盞可調節的壁燈，一盞在廚房，一盞在床頭。

They were recommended by a designer friend, and we just love them.

這是一位設計師朋友推薦的，我們非常喜歡。

Their aesthetic suits the house so well, and they're really nice to use.

它們的美學設計非常適合這棟房子，使用起來也非常舒適。

Behind the main sleeping area is our child's room, and it was actually something that we added mid-build.

主睡眠區後面是我們孩子的房間，實際上是我們在建造過程中添加的。

It's been so great to sleep close to the little one at night, and it means that she's away from the more active kitchen and lounge areas while she's asleep, and we're not.

晚上能和小傢伙睡在一起真是太棒了，這意味著她睡覺時，我們可以遠離廚房和休息室這些比較熱鬧的地方。

That's good!

很好

If it's not used as a bedroom, the space would also make a really great study or even extravagant dressing room with additional wardrobe.

如果不用作臥室，這個空間還可以成為一個非常棒的書房，甚至是帶額外衣櫃的奢華更衣室。

The bathroom and laundry is tiled with Japanese ceramic tiles, which match the beautiful red dirt that we have on the block, and it looks really amazing against the white OSB and the brushed nickel tackware.

浴室和洗衣房鋪設的是日本瓷磚，與我們街區美麗的紅土相得益彰，在白色 OSB 和拉絲鎳粘合劑的映襯下，顯得格外迷人。

We have an extra-long bathroom bench, underneath which we have a full-sized washing machine and dryer, and above the bench we also have tensioned wire, again, for hanging items to In the shower, we tried to maximise space, so we have a simple glass divider, and we have tackware and shelving that doesn't intrude into your actual shower.

我們有一個超長的浴室長凳，長凳下面有一個全尺寸的洗衣機和烘乾機，長凳上面還有拉緊的電線，也是用來懸掛物品的。 在淋浴間，我們試圖最大限度地利用空間，所以我們有一個簡單的玻璃隔斷，我們還有不影響實際淋浴的小工具和置物架。

One of my favourite things in the shower is actually the Hinoki wood shower stool, which I sit on when I'm giving Will a little shower bath.

我在浴室裡最喜歡的東西之一其實是檜木淋浴凳，當我給威爾洗澡時，我就坐在上面。

When the bathroom door is open, it actually closes off the toilet nook, so the toilet's never in your direct line of sight.

當浴室門打開時，它實際上關閉了馬桶間，是以馬桶永遠不會在你的視線範圍內。

We have shelving above the toilet for more storage, and we also have a really great artwork by Lucas Grogan that's one of our favourites as well.

我們在馬桶上方設置了置物架，以增加儲物空間，我們還擺放了盧卡斯-格羅根（Lucas Grogan）的一幅非常棒的藝術作品，這也是我們最喜歡的作品之一。

The vanity light was just a simple flat white disc, and we weren't really sure how we felt about it, but we also had this beautiful circle artwork by Joseph Johnson that we'd been given by Jameson's mother Gil.

梳妝檯的燈只是一個簡單的白色扁平圓盤，我們並不確定自己對它的感覺如何，但我們還擁有詹姆森的母親吉爾送給我們的約瑟夫-約翰遜（Joseph Johnson）的精美圓環藝術品。

One day we just sort of thought, this fits here, and we put it on the light, and that's one of our favourite things.

有一天，我們突然想到，這個很適合放在這裡，於是就把它放在了燈上，這是我們最喜歡的東西之一。

Next to the shower we have a door which leads out to a private courtyard and the clothesline, which is also made from repurposed stainless steel balustrade wire.

淋浴間旁邊有一扇門，通向一個私人庭院和晾衣繩。

The clothesline is super long and facilitates a full set of sheets and laundry for the whole family.

晾衣繩超長，方便全家人鋪床單、洗衣服。

We painted some of the pavers red, again just for fun, and at the end of our courtyard is a locker for gardening tools and the rainwater tank.

我們把一些鋪路石漆成了紅色，同樣只是為了好玩，庭院的盡頭是一個儲物櫃，用來存放園藝工具和雨水箱。

Leading out from the living space we have these beautiful tall French doors, which we mostly keep open because it's just such beautiful weather here, beautiful environment.

從起居室向外走，我們有一扇漂亮的高大法式門，因為這裡天氣晴朗，環境優美，所以大部分時間我們都開著門。

The deck is FRP, which is painted the same colour as the exterior render.

甲板採用玻璃鋼材料，塗有與外部效果圖相同的顏色。

There's a round metal table and four vintage steel chairs, as well as two stainless steel and canvas swing chairs, which we had custom made.

這裡有一張金屬圓桌和四把復古鋼椅，還有兩把不鏽鋼和帆布的鞦韆椅，這是我們定製的。

Wide steps lead down onto a nice little patch of lawn, which Jonathan lovingly laid himself for Will to play around on, but we also have a natural rockery with native Australian plants in there.

寬闊的臺階通向一小塊漂亮的草坪，喬納森精心鋪設了這片草坪，供威爾在上面玩耍。

There's also neighbours with chickens, with one chicken particularly that comes and lays eggs under our rosemary every morning.

鄰居們還養雞，特別是有一隻雞每天早上都來我們家的迷迭香下下蛋。

Oh, you're being so careful, that's good.

哦，你這麼小心，很好。

When designing a small space, I think it was really valuable to us to decide what was important to us in our everyday life and prioritise functionality in those spaces.

在設計一個小空間時，我認為決定日常生活中什麼對我們最重要，並優先考慮這些空間的功能性對我們來說非常有價值。

We worked with a mandate of efficiency and not compromise.

我們的工作任務是提高效率，而不是妥協。

For me, the kitchen is really like the heart of the home, and sleeping, those are two really important things.

對我來說，廚房就像是家的心臟，而睡眠則是非常重要的兩件事。

Jonathan spent a really long time asking me questions and listening to all the little things that bugged me about other places we'd lived, and things that I loved and dreamt about, and I think we have it.

喬納森花了很長時間問我問題，傾聽我對我們住過的其他地方、我喜歡的東西和夢想的東西的所有想法，我想我們找到了。

Even in a small space, we have everything we need.

即使在狹小的空間裡，我們也能擁有一切所需。

It's even luxurious to me.

這對我來說甚至是奢侈。

Thanks for watching.

感謝觀看。
