Glebe住宅的基地位於砂岩懸崖之上，可以俯瞰悉尼城市的天際線。它位於格列伯市的內城郊區，以其維多利亞式的排屋和狹窄的街道而聞名。與悉尼郊區的平均水平相比，該地區的分配麵積很小，房屋密度也很高。
The site for the Glebe House is elevated above a sandstone cliff face and overlooks the Sydney city skyline. It is located in the inner city suburb of Glebe known for its Victorian terrace houses and narrow streets. The allotments in the area are small and the density of the housing is very high compared to the average Sydney suburb. The site is overlooked by a Victorian terrace on the south and is elevated above 1980’s public housing to the north.
該場地上現有的殘舊小屋被拆毀，取而代之的是新的緊湊型兩層住宅，其中有四間臥室，可容納五口之家。
The existing dilapidated cottage on the site was demolished and replaced with a new compact two-storey dwelling with four bedrooms for a family of five.
住宅的設計力求在嚴格的規劃控製和可觀的場地約束下，最大化小場地的可用空間。建築物的圍護結構是通過每個正麵的最小倒退控製的簡單偏移來形成的。建築的高度受到鄰近住宅窗戶的視線的限製。住宅的最終形式是一個平屋頂和一個楔形，它複製了三角形塊體的幾何形狀。
The design for the dwelling seeks to maximise the available space on the small site within stringent planning controls and considerable site constraints. The envelope of the building is shaped by the simple offset of the minimum setback controls for each frontage. The height of the building is limited by the view-lines from the windows of the neighbouring dwelling. The resulting form of the dwelling has a flat roof and a wedge shape, which replicates the geometry of the triangular shaped block.
建築的簡單圍護結構以拱形開口連接，這些拱形開口參考了相鄰維多利亞式排屋的拱形開口和入口門廊。與傳統的維多利亞式房屋不同，Glebe住宅的拱形開口在立麵和平麵上都有。立麵上的拱形窗戶與地板上的拱形開口對齊，在空間內創造出三維的內部空間。雙層通高的空間使光線最大限度地穿透住宅中心，增加空間感。螺旋樓梯遵循主要空間的彎曲形式。
The simple envelope of the building has been articulated with arched openings, which reference the arched openings and entrance portico of the neighbouring Victorian terrace house. Unlike traditional Victorian houses the arched openings in the Glebe House occur in both elevation and on plan. The arched windows on the elevation align with arched cut-outs in the floor plate to create three-dimensional internal voids within the space. The double height voids maximise light penetration into the centre of the dwelling and add to the sense of space. A spiral staircase follows the curved form of the main void.
該建築的內部和外部覆層均采用白色烤漆的垂直木板裝飾，再現了該地區傳統農舍的質感。大的拱形窗戶使用垂直的木豎框作為結構支撐。窗戶的垂直豎框加強了立麵的垂直性和韻律，有助於抽象住宅的立麵。
The building has been designed with internal and external cladding of white painted vertical timber boarding which replicates the materiality of the traditional cottages of the area. The large arched windows utilise vertical timber mullions for structural support. The vertical mullions of the windows reinforce the verticality and rhythm of the cladding and help to abstract the facades of the dwelling.
後部的室外覆蓋空間延續了室內空間的重要性和語言性。外部空間的拱形窗戶是無玻璃的，垂直的豎框是為了給攀緣植物提供支撐。
A rear outdoor covered space continues the materiality and language of the interior spaces. The arched windows of the external space are unglazed and the vertical mullions are designed to provide support for climbing plants.
