这座房子是为了庆祝家庭的形成过程中的阴影。它延续了kta对黑暗空间的兴趣,这种兴趣为家庭生活提供了更高的亲密感和神秘感,并为其提供了躲避澳大利亚严酷阳光的退路。

This house celebrates the shadow in the making of home. It continues kta’s interest in dark space, the heightened sense of intimacy and mystery for domestic life that this affords and the retreat it provides from the harsh Australian sun.

在平面上呈三角形,其长边作为挡土墙,与土地的坡度相撞。与此相邻的是第二和第三条边,连接起来提供了一个直角,一个角。如果这个直角包含了内部,并在内部和外部之间定义了一个清晰的边界,那么顶点反而破坏了这个边界。通过全高的玻璃隔断与挡土墙分开,它们揭示了重要的树木和远处海岬的景色。在这些尖锐的末端,内部和外部成为一体。

Triangular in plan its long side acts as retaining wall struck against the slope of the land. Adjacent to this are sides two and three, joined to provide a right angle, a corner. If this right angle contains the interior and defines a clear boundary between inside and out, the apexes instead breach this. Separated from the retaining wall by full height glazed breaks they reveal views of significant trees and distant headlands. At these acute ends, inside and outside become one.

其他地方的窗户仅限于固定的画框,内衬木材,与外部齐平,或者是垂直的槽,带有通风用的百叶窗,通过黑色的钢制外罩呈现出阴影。揭示的表达方式,也是在砌块墙的回归中追求的,对于实现阴影的深度和质量的体验至关重要。它创造了可居住的空间,让人想起格里芬斯的Castlecrag建筑。

Elsewhere windows are limited to fixed picture frames lined with timber and flush with the exterior or vertical slots,with louvresfor ventilation,appearing as shadows through black steel reveals. The expression of the reveal,also pursued in the return of blockwork walls, is critical to achieving a depth for shadow and an experience of mass. It creates the habitable niche and recallsthe Griffins’ Castlecrag buildings.

客户对质量的渴望也通过混凝土块和混凝土地板的使用得到了满足。木材亮点丰富了本质上是粗暴主义的调色板。与黑色的层状天花板相结合,它们强化了邻近的灌木丛和远处海面的颜色。

The clients’ desire for mass is also met through the use of concrete blocks and concrete floors. Timber highlights enrich what is essentially a brutalist palette. In combination with the blackness of the form ply ceiling they intensifythe colours of the adjacent bush and distant sea scapes .

天花板是提供庇护的阴影。它是一个折叠的表面,与屋顶的线条一致。屋顶从形成护栏转向两边,在北边形成悬空或屋檐,混淆了屋顶或墙壁建筑的争论。

The ceiling is the shadow under which shelter is given. A folded surface it follows the line of the roof. The roof shifts from forming a parapet to two sides andan overhang or eave to the north, confounding the roof or wall building debate.

在设计过程的早期,与菲利普-戈德就该项目进行了交谈,发现他对维多利亚时代的现代人使用柏拉图形式的兴趣。在柏拉图式中,三角形(尽管是直角的)最能与场地的力量保持一致。

Conversations with Phillip Goad about the project early in the design process uncovered an interest in the use of the platonic form amongst the Victorian moderns. Of theplatonics the triangle (albeit a right angle one)most productively aligned with the forces of the site.
