客户拥有这个已经在家族中存在了40年的木屋。它停靠在一个突入湖中的岩石点上。

The clients owned this log cabin which has been in the family for 40 years. It is anchored on a rocky point which juts out into the lake.

该项目是要完全翻新这个小屋,并对其进行扩建,使其成为一个开放、流畅和明亮的空间,以利用俯瞰湖面的美丽景色。

The project was to completely renovate this cottage and expand it to make it an open, fluid and bright space that takes advantage of the beautiful views overlooking the lake.

由于靠近海岸,建筑师将扩建部分规划在顶部而不是侧面。只有屏风门廊是加在地面上的。因此,那里有一个挑战。如何在这个典型的有倾斜屋顶的小木屋上加一层楼,而又不使其变质和失去其痕迹。解决办法是不要假装这个附加物一直都在那里。该项目必须让新旧两部分清晰可见。

The proximity to the shore led the architects to plan the extension on top rather than on the sides. Only the screened porch was added at ground level. So, there was a challenge there. How to add a floor to this typical small log cabin with its sloping roof without denaturing it and losing its trace. The solution was not to pretend that this addition had always been there. The project had to allow the old and the new to be clearly visible.

对比和连续性
该项目是两个时代的结合:原来的木屋和当代的附加物。原来的小木屋是乡村式的,由石头和原木制成,其倾斜的屋顶有宽大的悬垂。加建部分是一个干净的整体,但其材料(木材)和颜色与原来的小屋相呼应。加建的屋顶坡度的各种断裂也反映了老木屋的情况。

Contrast and continuity
The project is the meeting of 2 eras: the original log cabin and the contemporary addition. The original cabin is rustic, made of stones and logs with its sloping roof with wide overhangs. The addition is a clean and monolithic volume but whose material (wood) and color echo those of the original cottage. The various breaks in the roof slope of the addition also reflect those of the old cabin.

在室内,美丽的老式巨型石制壁炉已经被修复,现在四面都可以看到,就在空间的中心。新的楼梯是轻盈而简约的。

Inside, the beautiful old massive stone fireplace has been restored and is now visible on all sides, right in the center of the space. The new staircase is light and minimalistic.

保留老木屋的大教堂式的天花板也很重要,即使上面要加一层楼。脆弱的旧屋顶被完全拆除,取而代之的是复制斜坡的花旗松结构,并支持新地板。

It was also important to preserve the cathedral ceiling of the old cottage, even if a floor was to be added above. The old roof, which was frail, was completely removed and replaced by a Douglas fir structure replicating the slope and supporting the new floor.

采光和视野
增加一个楼层有一个显著的好处,客户和建筑师可以通过爬上老别墅的屋顶看到。这个岬角提供了一个特殊的湖景和一个通向天空的开口,这在底层是不存在的。这个观察哨已经被赋予了新的主卧室。从他们的床上,主人可以看到美丽的高大松树,以及湖面和星空的壮丽景色。

Light and views
Adding a story had a significant benefit that the clients and the architect could see by climbing onto the roof of the old cottage. This promontory offered an exceptional view of the lake and an opening to the sky that did not exist on the ground floor. This observation post has been given to the new master bedroom. From their bed, the owners have a breathtaking view of the beautiful tall pines, as well as the lake and the starry night sky.

屋顶上的附加物也起到了照亮底层的作用。通过东侧的一个大型垂直开口,楼上的晨光进入室内,通过半透明玻璃制成的走道地板过滤到下层。楼梯顶部的一个大窗户也起到了天窗的作用。

The addition on the roof also serves to illuminate the ground floor. Through a large vertical opening on the east side, upstairs, the morning light enters inside and filters down to the lower level through the walkway floor made of translucent glass. A large window at the top of the stairs also acts as a skylight.

安装在南侧的新屏风门廊,提供了另一个在自然光沐浴下享受户外活动的场所。

The new screened porch installed on the south side, offers another place to enjoy the outdoors in a space bathed with natural light.

材料
构成原始木屋的石头和木材也是室内的主要材料,而且是以色调为基础的。其他表面主要是白色,从而最大限度地利用了光线,突出了周围大自然的色彩。

Materiality
The stone and the wood that make up the original cabin are also the main materials used for the interiors, in tone on tone. The other surfaces are mainly white, thus maximizing the light and highlighting the colors of the surrounding nature.
