架构师提供的文本描述。坐落在密密麻麻的钢铁工人的小屋、bodegas和克利夫兰的Tremont社区的精品店中，这所独户住宅不仅能告诉旁观者它的非传统位置，也能告诉它古怪的主人。这是一个由邻里两个街道网格交汇处刻下的三角形地块，屋主是一名退休律师，拥有一套旋转且独特的家具和艺术收藏，推动了这座房子的概念框架。

Text description provided by the architects. Located amidst the densely packed steelworker cottages, bodegas, and boutiques of Cleveland’s Tremont neighborhood, this single-family residence tells onlookers as much about its unconventional location as it does about its eccentric owner. The site, a triangular parcel etched by the intersection of the neighborhood’s two street grids, and the owner, a retired attorney with a revolving and idiosyncratic furniture and art collection, serves as the impetus for the house’s conceptual framework.

 Context and Site Plan

背景和场地规划

为了优化网站的潜力的适度和有限的足迹，住宅被认为是一个坚实的体积建设的范围内的房地产线。部分的体积是经过深思熟虑的雕刻，以激活地面平面沿街道，建立行人和车辆的路线，并回应其周围不断变化的建筑类型。

To optimize the potential of the site’s modest and constrained footprint, the home is conceived as a solid volume built to the extents of the property line. Portions of the volume are thoughtfully carved away to activate the ground plane along the street, to establish pedestrian and vehicular lines of site, and to respond to the shifting building typologies of its environs.

由中央楼梯分开，私人空间和公共空间分别从南到北组织起来，建筑的宽度逐渐缩小，而高度却在扩大。私人空间是一系列中等大小的房间(卧室、公用设施、储藏室)，占据着包裹的最南端，沿着W.10街的网格系统正交定位。一个直通车库把街道和双面作为车间连接起来.

Divided by a central stair, the private and public spaces organize themselves from South to North, respectively, as the building tapers in width while expanding in height. The private space, a series of modestly sized rooms (bedrooms, utilities, storage), occupy the deep southern half of the parcel and orient themselves orthogonally along the W.10th Street grid system. A drive-through garage connects both streets and doubles as a workshop.

相反，公共空间(厨房、生活、就餐和门厅)只占一个房间，与瑟曼大道的格栅保持一致。公共和私人都被一个高架门廊(在平面图中)和一个加厚的连续树冠(在海拔上)连接在一起。尽管在城市环境中看它似乎是随机的，但当在内部经历时，开窗是由功能逻辑所支配的。

Conversely, the public spaces (kitchen, living, dining, and foyer) occupy a single room, aligning with the Thurman Avenue grid. Both public and private are bound together by an elevated porch (in the plan) and a thickened continuous canopy (in elevation). Though seemingly random when viewed within its urban context, the fenestration is governed by functional logic when experienced internally.

大量的玻璃占据了公共空间，并且随着它们离私人空间的距离减小，尺寸减小，从而使艺术的定位和日光的不断变化的提供成为可能。门槛高度仅提升到足以将视觉隐私保持在人行道上。一个安静地居住在地板上的窗户，是一个奇异的例外，一个让黛安提供每日思想的地方，划在报纸上，并被张贴到过路人那里，在那里他们可以窥见他的私人内部。

Large expanses of glazing occupy the public spaces and reduce in size as they inch closer to the private, allowing for curated placement of art and an ever-changing offering of daylight. Sill heights are lifted only enough to maintain visual privacy from the sidewalk. One window, residing quietly at the floor, serves as a moment of singular exception and a place for Deane to offer up daily thoughts, scribed on paper and posted to passersby where they may capture a limited glimpse of his private interior.

建筑物的约束材料调色板，裸露混凝土，玻璃和钢是第一选择的迪安以及建筑师。它既暗示了城市丰富的历史，也暗示了业主的怀旧情怀。所有材料都是在当地采购的，并专门为其长期的天气能力而选择。在W.10街，钢板是光滑多样的，响应着街道的开窗和节奏。

The building’s restrained material palette, exposed concrete, glass, and steel was the first choice of Deane as well as the architect. It alludes to both the rich history of the City and the nostalgic sensibilities of the owner. All materials were sourced locally and selected specifically for their ability to weather over time. The steel panels are smooth and varied along W.10th Street, responding to the fenestration and rhythm of the street.

沿着瑟曼大道，一条没有人行道和建筑正面的单向小巷，一个垂直方向的波纹图案对不确定的尺度做出了反应。光滑的浇铸混凝土作为迪恩外部空间的平台，而CMU块体则作为多边形结构的平台。风化钢皮是从沿周边的凸起，使沉重的钢结构在其锥形角的一个微妙的存在。

Along Thurman Avenue, a one-way alley lacking sidewalks and building frontage, a vertically oriented corrugated pattern react to the undefined scale.  Smooth cast in place concrete serves as the podium for Deane’s exterior space while CMU blocks serve as the plinth for the polygonal structure. The weathering steel skin is lifted off the plinth along the perimeter, giving the heavy steel structure a delicate presence at its tapered corner.
