我们为白桦树住宅设计的目的是创造一个温和的、有雕塑感的、但又坚固的家庭住宅,它位于一个美丽的休息花园中。我们的设计理念是创造一个拥有5间卧室的住宅,其中有各种家庭区域,最大限度地利用长长的北面通向一个美丽的游泳池。我们在内部和外部的设计方法是创造一个诗意的曲线体量的对话,以及轻盈和精致的细节,作为繁忙的家庭生活的背景布。空间的体量是柔软的雕塑形式,重叠和交叉创造了可操作的家庭区域。自然光和柔软的材料被选择来创造一个光和影的奇异效果。饰面是刻意提炼和调和的。纹理是主要的角色。天然石灰石、橡木地板、抛光石膏墙和亚麻窗帘是低调的调色板。

Our aim for Birch Tree house was to create a gentle sculptural but robust family home set amongst a beautiful restful garden. The Design Brief was to create a 5 Bedroom home with various family areas maximizing the long north aspect leading towards a beautiful pool. Our approach both internally and externally was to create a dialogue of poetic curved volumes, and light and delicate details as a background canvas for busy family life. The volumes of space are soft sculptural forms that overlap and intersect creating workable family zones. Natural light and soft materials were selected to create a chiaroscuro of light and shade. The finishes were deliberately refined and tonal. The texture is the main player. Natural limestone, oak timber floor, polished plaster walls, and linen curtains were the understated palette.

墙面是抛光的混凝土,在每个空间都创造了一种闪亮的效果。家具的选择是为了其设计感和舒适性。美丽的藤椅可以让人看到游泳池–与三条腿的青铜桌一起,为特意厚实的外墙提供了一种精致的感觉。花园和界面是设计中的重中之重。内部变成了外部。上面放有桉树枝的拱门为所有北面的窗户提供了阴凉,水池之间的接口,最重要的是,葡萄藤开始生长的时候有一种浪漫的感觉。

The walls being polished concrete create a shimmering effect throughout every space. Furniture was selected for its sense of design and comfort. The beautiful cane chairs allowed views through to the pool – a delicateness along with the 3-legged Bronze table, providing a fineness to the deliberately thick and solid external walls. The gardens and the interface were of the utmost in the design. The inside became outside. The arches with eucalyptus sticks placed above provide shade to all the north windows, interface between the pool, and most importantly a sense of romance with the grape vines starting to grow over.

室内设计是刻意的微妙和精致,其中纹理和柔和的光线是主要的品质。我们的目标是在一个美丽的休息花园中创造一个雕塑般的反应。内部变成了外部。饰面和形式融合在一起,形成一个生活的背景。通过分析国内生活区和家庭区的类型,我们的目的是创造一个美丽的空间流,以加强和谐,使家人在一起。生活区位于底层,流向花园和露台;卧室和儿童生活区位于第一层,通向阳台和茱莉叶式阳台,提供延伸的视野。宽敞的空间和窗户为空间带来了充足的光线。桦树屋以低调的方式挑战谦虚和奢华的矛盾概念。温和是关键。

The interior design was deliberately subtle and refined, where texture and soft light were the major qualities. Our aim was to create a sculptural response in a beautiful restful garden. The inside became outside. Finishes and forms merge to form a background for living. By analyzing the typology of domestic living and family zones, we aimed to create a beautiful flow of space to enhance harmony, bringing family together. Living zones are on the Ground Level and flow out to gardens and terraces; Bedrooms and kids’ Living are on the First Level and open to balconies and juliette balconies, giving extended views across. Expansive spaces and windows flood the spaces with abundant light. Birch Tree house challenges conflicting notions of modesty and luxury in an understated manner. Gentleness was key.

自然光和柔软的材料被选择来创造一个光和影的对比。饰面是刻意精制和色调的。纹理是主要的角色。天然石灰石、橡木地板、抛光石膏墙和亚麻窗帘是低调的调色板。墙面是 “Marmorino”,在每个空间都创造了一个闪亮的效果。我们的目的是要反映一个低调的房子,在大的弯曲和诱人的前门和超大的慷慨的前门后面。我们的灵感来自布兰库西的雕塑和他的大理石雕塑的柔和粉饰。墙壁在形式上是柔和的,在整个房子里创造了轻松的运动。因此,质地是最重要的,而材料是精致和微妙的。反映空间的慷慨和温柔是我们的愿望。

Natural light and soft materials were selected to create a chiaroscuro of light and shade. The finishes were deliberately refined and tonal. The texture is the main player. Natural limestone, oak timber floor, polished plaster walls, and linen curtains were the understated palette. The walls being “Marmorino” create a shimmering effect throughout every space. Our aim was to reflect an understated house behind the large curved and inviting front entrance and oversized generous front door. We were inspired by the sculpture of Brancusi and the soft powdery finish of his marble sculpture. The walls being soft and gentle in form create ease of movement throughout the house. Therefore, the texture was most important while the materials are refined and subtle. Reflecting generosity and gentleness of space was our aspiration.
