架构师提供的文本描述。这个项目的简要内容是为客户建造一套低成本的家庭住宅(一对年轻夫妇正在等待两个孩子)。我们为这对夫妇设计了一个小而灵活的空间，他们可以在不久的将来当新的家庭成员加入时做出改变。

房子的北侧，面向街道，有一个种植区和楼梯缓冲，为房子提供了更多的隐私。

The northern side of the house, which faces the street, is buffered with a planting area and the staircase, providing more privacy for the house.

 Floor Plan

居住和用餐空间位于南侧，那里的空间可以受益于阳光和通风。一旦餐厅附近的法式门打开，露台就被整合起来，形成一个连续的户外就餐和聚会空间。

Living and dinning space are positioned on the southern side, where the space can benefits from sunlight and ventilation. Once the French door by the dinning area is opened, the terrace is integrated to form a continuous space for outdoor dinning and gathering.

餐厅空间的双重高度可以看到二楼。在主卧室打开日本纸窗，可以看到整个客厅和就餐区的景色，扩大和连接房子的内部空间。

The double height of the dinning space gives a view to the 2nd floor. Opening the Japanese paper window at the master-bedroom reveals the view of the entire living and dinning area, expanding and connecting the interior space of the house.
