架构师提供的文本描述。最初的房子是在1968年由Stuch和Partners设计的，作为艺术家的房子和工作室，建筑师的妹妹。这是现代主义建筑的一个引人注目的例子，它清楚地提到了早期的包豪斯，施陶赫曾在那里学习过。虽然它坐落在一个近3000平方米的大地台上，但它被设计成一个双层展馆，下面是艺术家的工作室、车库和仆人的房间。在房子的中心，一段楼梯通向一楼一间两居室的公寓。开放式餐饮和起居区在视觉上得到扩展，可以俯瞰温得和克市中心东北面的露台。

Text description provided by the architects. The original house was designed in 1968 by Stauch and Partners as a house and studio for an artist, the sister of the architect. It is a striking example of modernist architecture with clear references to the early Bauhaus, where Stauch had studied. Even though sited on a large Erf of nearly 3000 square meters, it was designed as a double-story pavilion, with the artist's studio, garage and servant's room below. At the centre of the house a staircase lead up to a two-bedroom apartment on the first floor. The open-plan dining and living area are visually extended with a terrace overlooking the Windhoek city centre to the northeast.

在一楼，16根混凝土柱间隔在4x4米的网格上，上面有一个混凝土板，悬臂在四面大约半米处。一楼采用承重外墙，使内墙分布更加灵活.高出半米的屋顶模拟了混凝土板的悬臂，其缓坡遮住了下面的景致。天然松木舌和凹槽天花板从内向外延伸，形成屋檐，模糊了围护线。

On the ground floor, 16 concrete columns spaced on a 4 x 4m grid carry a concrete slab that cantilevers about half a metre on all sides. The first floor uses load-bearing exterior cavity walls, which allows internal walls to be distributed more flexibly. With its half-meter overhang the hipped roof mimics the cantilever of the concrete slab, and its gentle slope hides it from views below. The natural pine tongue and groove ceiling continues from the inside out, forming the eaves and blurring the line of enclosure.

改变现有居民的家庭星座，原主人的孙女和她的丈夫必须对房子进行改造。一楼的单间已经租给了一位朋友，有一间自建的分房，作为一间额外的卧室，而仆人的宿舍则变成了一间客房。车库被改建成家庭工作室，两个孩子不得不共用一间小卧室，渴望拥有自己的卧室。显然需要增加一项。

Changing family constellations of the current inhabitants, the granddaughter of the original owner and her husband necessitated alterations to the house. The ground floor studio had been rented out to a friend with a self-built extension that served as an extra bedroom, while the servant's quarters had been transformed into a guest room. The garage had been converted to a home studio and the two kids had to share a small bedroom, eager to have their own. An addition was clearly required.

扩建一个接近原形的现代主义展馆成为设计的主要挑战。选择自成一体的建筑，几乎不触及老建筑，说自己的正式语言，这是一种自觉的选择。孩子们和底层房客的额外卧室将被安置在一个像塔楼一样的西北边。一间新的套房客房，车库和家庭工作室将被安置在第二卷在大楼的南部，与外部楼梯，将导致屋顶露台，并形成新的主要入口的房子。

Expanding a modernist pavilion that was in near-original shape became the main challenge of the design. The choice of self-contained structures that hardly touch the old building and speak a formal language of their own was a conscious one. The additional bedroom for the kids and the ground floor tenant would be accommodated in a tower-like addition to the northwest. A new en-suite guest room, garage and home studio would be accommodated in a second volume to the south of the building, with an external staircase that would lead onto a roof terrace and form the new main entrance into the house.

为了保持原来的简单和减少的重要性，增加的执行作为立方体的袋装混凝土砖，参考原来的房子的尺寸和大窗口开口的位置。

In keeping with the simplicity and reduced materiality of the original, the additions were executed as cubic volumes of bagged concrete bricks that referenced the original house in their dimensioning and the position of the large window openings.
