这栋房子坐落在班加罗尔一个封闭的社区建筑群中的一条绿荫大道上，它的形式来源于场地的线性。直线8000 SFT现场与120英尺。长廊的北侧有一片成熟的竹林，需要保存，南面还有一排果树。

Situated on a shady green avenue in a gated community complex in Bangalore, the house derives its form from the linearity of the site. The rectilinear 8000 sft site with a 120 ft. long frontage had an existing mature bamboo grove to its northern side that needed to be preserved as well as a row of fruit trees to its south.

从程序上讲，公共空间和私人空间之间存在着故意的界限。底层主要有居住、就餐、书房、厨房、公用设施等公共空间，还有一间客房，上层有3间私人卧室和1间家庭房。

Programmatically there was an intentional demarcation between public vs. private spaces. The ground floor has mostly public spaces such as living, dining, den, study, kitchen, utilities as well as a guest room and the upper floor has 3 private bedrooms and a family room.

这所房子的入口处是一堵雕刻的砖墙。穿过一个小庭院进入门厅。第一个视觉画面是一幅画窗，画着一棵寺庙的树，漂浮在一个线性的蓝色水体上，背景是一堵红色的墙。门厅东侧有一系列空间展开，空间上彼此流动；宽敞的起居室通向一个书房，然后通过一系列滑动的口袋门进入一个亲密的书房。起居空间的侧翼是一个长廊，可以俯瞰北花园。廊道的延伸比例有效地利用了场地的西向东轴线。

Entry to the house is via a sculpted brick coloured wall. Traversing through a small court one enters the foyer. The first visual is a picture window framing a temple tree set afloat a linear blue water body and against the backdrop of a red wall. A succession of spaces unfolds to the east of the foyer, spatially flowing into one another; a spacious living room leads to a den and then into an intimate study via series of sliding pocket doors. The living spaces in turn flank a lengthy verandah that overlooks the north garden. The extended proportions of the verandah use the west to east axis of the site effectively.

大厅的西面是一个明亮的双高度空间，通过两个狭窄的天窗轻轻地沐浴着自然光。楼梯是用软钢和木料做的，在周围的空间里轻轻地漂浮着。

West of the foyer is a generous sky- lit double height volume gently bathed with natural light via two narrow skylights. The staircase was crafted out of mild steel and timber and floats lightly within its surrounding volume.

餐厅位于其东面的水景和花园，南面的楼梯。楼梯和餐厅的两旁是一堵壮丽的双高墙，它是用经过修整的钢筋混凝土砌成的。

The dining room is located such that it enjoys views of the water feature and garden to its east and the staircase to its south. Flanking the staircase and dining is an imposing double height wall that was crafted in form finished ribbed concrete.

长屋最令人兴奋的干预措施之一是我们能够通过石匠和木匠进行定制。某些垂直面是在带肋结构混凝土中浇铸的。混凝土浇筑后，在重复楔形模板的施工过程中要特别小心，以达到无缝连接。在长廊中，同样有肋的图案被反射成一个木材覆盖的天花板，整个长度在垂直折叠前以带肋混凝土的形式折叠。木材和水泥之间的作用也以其他方式在房屋中得到了重申。某些房间，如书房和书房，有柚木贴面墙壁并置着抛光水泥制成的天花板。

One of the most exciting interventions of the Long House has been the customization we were able to achieve with the masons and carpenters. Certain vertical planes were cast in ribbed textured concrete. Special care was taken during construction in the repetitive wedge shaped timber shuttering to achieve seamless joints once the concrete was poured.  In the long verandah the same ribbed pattern is reflected as a timber clad ceiling that runs its entire length before folding down vertically in the form of ribbed concrete. The play between timber and cement is also reiterated through the house in other ways. Certain rooms like the den and study have teak veneer clad walls juxtaposed with polished cement rendered ceilings.

在一楼，主卧室和一个孩子的房间有高15英尺高的天花板，打破了聚集，有倾斜的悬臂屋顶，向东延伸。屋顶悬垂的底部用带肋的木头覆盖。

On the first floor, the master bedroom and one of the children's rooms have lofty 15ft high ceilings that break the massing and have sloping cantilevered roofs that open up towards the east. The underside of the roof overhangs are clad with ribbed wood.

长院提议与其南部的公共街道以及北面的私人花园进行令人兴奋的对话。像餐厅、生活和洞穴这样的公共空间，通过大的滑动玻璃门向北面的走廊和私人花园敞开，一楼的私人卧室可以看到南面果树翠绿的景色。

The Long House proposes an exciting dialogue with the public street on its south as well as the private garden to its north. Public spaces like the dining, living, and den open up generously via large sliding glass doors to the verandah and private garden to its north, and the private bedrooms on the first floor open up to views of the verdant green cover of the fruit trees to the south.

材料使用最少。抛光的米色大理石，灰色的科塔石和抛光的水泥与温暖的木材框架，和肋柚木覆层并置。

The material usage is minimal. Polished beige marble, grey kota stone, and polished cement are juxtaposed with the warmth of timber frames, and ribbed teak cladding.

该设计旨在通过在东北方创造一个肺空间，成功地解决场地的线性问题，以及保护现有竹园的必要性。这座房子一直保持着不受限制的光和空气流动、充足的交叉通风以及从每个房间到周围绿色植物的看法。

The design seeks to successfully negotiate the linearity of the site and the need to preserve the existing bamboo plantation by creating a lung space on the northeast.  The house keeps constant the need for an unfettered flow of light and air, adequate cross ventilation and views from each of the rooms to the surrounding greenery.
