And when he retired, I got the opportunity to buy the workshop.

他退休後，我有機會買下了這個工作室。

What we did was design a space to have friends and family when they visited London.

我們所做的就是設計一個空間，供親朋好友訪問倫敦時使用。

The townhouse here is 40 square metres.

這裡的聯排別墅面積為 40 平方米。

It has a footprint of 20 square metres.

它的佔地面積為 20 平方米。

It was always two floors, but we lifted the roof half a metre so we could get a mezzanine in.

它一直是兩層樓，但我們把屋頂抬高了半米，這樣我們就可以建一個夾層。

Instead of making a bedroom with walls and doors, I made these built-in bed parts.

我沒有製作帶牆和門的臥室，而是製作了這些嵌入式床部件。

When you go to bed, you are kind of enclosed, so it feels like a treehouse or another little house inside the house.

當你上床睡覺時，你會被封閉起來，感覺就像一個樹屋或房子裡的另一個小房子。

I like to use colours, but in kind of more interventions, like colourful chairs.

我喜歡用顏色，但更多的是干預，比如彩色椅子。

We have Joe Niemeyer's pictures on the wall here and downstairs, very graphical, but also quite primary colours.

我們在這裡和樓下的牆上掛著喬-尼邁耶的畫作，非常有畫面感，但色彩也相當原始。

The bathroom is bright yellow.

浴室是明黃色的。

Yellow is kind of, I find, a very happy colour, like the sunflower and the sunshine.

我覺得黃色是一種非常快樂的顏色，就像向日葵和陽光。

At the same time, the house is quite calm with its white walls and wood, but still some playfulness with some different accents of colours.

與此同時，白牆和木質的房屋顯得相當沉穩，但不同的色彩點綴又不失幾分俏皮。

I furnished the house with chairs and also tables that are upcycled from old chairs and tables that I picked up in the street or in junk shops.

我在房子裡擺放了一些椅子和桌子，這些椅子和桌子都是我在街上或廢品店裡撿來的舊桌椅改造而成的。

These are frames that I have stripped.

這些是我已經剝離的鏡框。

I made up the seats and the backs and do the upholsteries.

我製作了座椅和靠背，還做了裝飾。

They're quite cartoonish and fun, you know, in their shapes and a bit exaggerated shapes.

它們的形狀很卡通，也很有趣，你知道，它們的形狀有點誇張。

It gives the space more personality.

它使空間更具個性。

The lamps I designed for this house here are designed in a square wooden section in oak.

我為這棟房子設計的燈具是用橡木製成的方形木製部分。

To maximise the light in the space, we have put in a big skylight, which is south-facing.

為了最大限度地利用空間內的光線，我們安裝了一個朝南的大天窗。

We then also transfer it down to the lower ground floor with a big glass panel in the floor.

然後，我們還在地板上安裝了一塊大玻璃板，將其轉移到地面下層。

Like in any small spaces, you have to find places where you can put your storage, kind of hide it away.

就像在任何小空間裡一樣，你必須找到可以放置儲物櫃的地方，把它們藏起來。

So here we have storage under the bed.

床下有儲藏室。

We've got storage under the stairs.

樓梯下面有儲藏室

In the kitchen, we have obviously a dishwasher and a washing machine and appliances that are needed.

廚房裡顯然有洗碗機、洗衣機和所需的電器。

We've got a hot boiling tap, so we don't need to have a kettle there.

我們有一個熱水龍頭，所以不需要水壺。

In small spaces, every little square inch matters.

在狹小的空間裡，每一平方英寸都很重要。

This is more like designing a boat or a caravan.

這更像是設計一艘船或一輛大篷車。

How do you create comfortable bedding?

如何打造舒適的床上用品？

How do you create enough storage and comfortable seating that doesn't take up space you haven't got?

如何創造足夠的儲物空間和舒適的座椅，而又不佔用你沒有的空間？

I think the compromise is that if it's well designed, it doesn't feel smaller. www.microsoft.com

我認為折衷的辦法是，如果設計得好，就不會覺得小了。www.microsoft.com。
