本案是在达拉斯市区的一个不寻常的三角形地块上建造一个2300平方英尺的住宅。该地块由两条街道汇合而成,并由后退线进一步塑造,形成了一个三角形的可建区域。建筑策略包括创造一个L型的房子,有两个翼,一个是生活空间,一个是卧室空间。两翼的连接处成为入口和门厅。三角形的干预由一个木栅栏完成,与L形的配置一起,构成了一个适合游泳池和户外生活空间的内部庭院。

The brief is for a 2,300-square-foot residence within an unusual triangular lot, located in an urban Dallas neighborhood. The site is formed by two streets converging and is further shaped by the setbacks, resulting in a triangular buildable area. The architectural strategy involved creating an L-shaped house with two wings, one for the living space and one for the bedroom spaces. The joint at which the two wings meet became the entry and foyer. The triangular intervention is completed with a wood fence that, together with the L-shaped configuration, composes an interior courtyard fitting a swimming pool and outdoor living space.

一个最小的黑色和白色的配色方案贯穿始终,一个多纹理的黑色皮肤包裹着外部,光滑的白色材料装饰着内部。深色的棱形金属壁板提供了一个一致的体量,黑色染色的木栅栏连接着住宅的两端。

A minimal black and white color scheme are used throughout, with a multi-textured black skin wrapping the exterior and smooth, white materials adorning the interior. The dark ribbed metal siding provides a consistent massing, with the black-stained wood fence connecting the two ends of the residence.

虽然外部形式是干净的和紧绷的,而白色抹灰的内墙和混凝土地板是最小的和控制的,但封闭的庭院为建筑形式提供了一个动态的对比。室外空间–通过一个4扇16英尺的滑动玻璃组从起居空间延伸出来–铺设了石板、各种规模的植被和水元素,所有这些都给人以质感,为房屋本身的独特形式提供了有机的、不断变化的环境。房子和 “花园 “之间的对比游戏因此得到了提升。

While the exterior form is clean and taut, and the white plastered interior walls and concrete floors are minimal and controlled, the enclosed courtyard provides a dynamic contrast to the built form. The outdoor spaces – which extend from the living space through a 4-panel, 16-foot sliding glass set – are laced with stone pavers, vegetation of various scales, and a water element, all of which give texture and provide the organic, ever-changing setting for the distinct form that is the house itself. The play of contrast between the house and the ‘garden’ is thus elevated.

大胆而微妙的低层单层住宅尊重了周围环境的规模,倾斜的屋顶与邻居现有的屋顶线相呼应。生活空间的尖头将建筑固定在两条街道交汇的三角形地块上。使用最小的多余的姿态—在轻微的角度之外,这些角度是为了适应后退和定义室内和室外空间的边缘–房子转化为一个抽象的项目,一部分是建筑,一部分是雕塑,静静地坐在它周围的环境中。

The bold, yet subtle, low-lying single-story residence respects the scale of the immediate context, and the sloped roof corresponds to the existing roof lines of the neighbors. The pointed end of the living space anchors the building to the point of the triangular lot where two streets converge. Using minimal superfluous gestures – outside the slight angles which act to accommodate setbacks and define edges between indoor and outdoor space – the house translates into an abstract project that is part architecture part sculpture, sitting quietly within its surroundings.
