“与汽车共度时光 “是这个度假屋背后的概念,旨在为爱好汽车的客户和朋友提供一个有趣的休闲场所。与典型的内置车库的房子相比,这里的目的是在一个轻松的环境中模糊人、车和房间之间的界限。

“Spending time with cars” is the concept behind this vacation house intended as a fun retreat for a car-loving client and friends. In contrast to a typical house with a built-in garage, the aim here was to blur the boundaries between people, cars, and rooms in a relaxed environment.

客户希望有一个可以轻松、灵活地以各种方式使用的房子,这就产生了圆形的规划。由于该设计没有死角,并允许人和车在整个第一层自由移动,它可以容纳许多布局,同时提供了度假屋中经常寻求的 “不实用性 “的极端版本。

The client’s desire for a house that could easily and flexibly be used in various ways gave rise to the circular plan. Because the design has no dead-ends and allows people and cars to move freely throughout the first story, it accommodates many layouts while providing an extreme version of the “impracticality” often sought in vacation homes.

受马戏团帐篷的启发,这个简单而大胆的结构由一个24面的大体量和一个内部独立的体量组成,形状像一张大圆桌,构成了第二层。支撑帐篷的核心没有柱子,而是通过倾斜的外墙来维持其张力。

Inspired by a circus tent, the simple but bold structure is made up of a large 24-sided volume and an independent volume inside shaped like a large, round table that forms the second story. The core that supports the tent has no posts but instead maintains its tension through slanted outer walls.

该结构使用传统的建筑材料以保持低成本,而先进的预制木材技术和精密的钢制硬件制造技术使其具有不同寻常的形式。第一层是一个由人和车共享的 “车库生活 “空间,功能集中在核心区和外缘。第二层是一个私人空间,包含主人的卧室和一个带有瀑布式淋浴的中央按摩浴缸。

The structure uses conventional construction materials to keep costs low, while advanced precut timber technology and precision steel hardware manufacturing technology enable the unusual form. The first story is a “garage living” space shared by people and cars, with functionality concentrated in the core and outer rim. The second story is a private space containing the owner’s bedroom and a central jacuzzi with a waterfall shower.

从下面看,房子的框架让人联想到一把打开的纸伞,这是对日本设计的有意参考。客户有一个俏皮的个性,提出了许多有趣的想法,我们把这些想法融入到整个房子里,在周末,这里充满了爱车的朋友。就像我们小时候在空地上建造的秘密藏身处的长大版,这个项目的设计和居住一样有趣。

Viewed from below, the frame of the house evokes an open paper umbrella, an intentional reference to Japanese design. The client has a playful personality and suggested many fun ideas that we incorporated throughout the house, and on weekends it is filled with car-loving friends. Like a grown-up version of the secret hideouts, we built on empty lots as children, the project was as much fun to design as it is to inhabit.
