一个具有野性的家庭住宅–“聪明而不奢华 “是其设计理念。一个小的、可持续发展的足迹。对空间的巧妙利用。在塔斯马尼亚的农村,有一个陡峭但令人惊叹的场地。我们与客户Matt紧密合作,他自己建造了这个有三个卧室的房子。

A family home with wilderness at heart – ‘Clever, not posh’ was the brief. A small, sustainable footprint. A smart use of space. And a steep, but stunning site in rural Tasmania. We collaborated closely with client Matt, who built this three bedroom home himself.

事实证明,锡制金属表皮坚固耐用,维护费用低,成本效益高。然后,我们用木材包覆了可进入的区域,使它们感觉更有触感。Macrocarpa,一种种植园木材,保持了可持续发展,还有太阳能、良好的绝缘和湿式加热系统。从原始的钢板厨房长凳和防溅板到耐用的地板,没有什么是太挑剔的。

A tin metal skin proved robust, low maintenance and cost effective. Then we timber clad accessible areas so they felt more tactile. Macrocarpa, a plantation timber, kept this sustainable as did solar, good insulation and a wetback heating system. From raw plate steel kitchen bench and splash-backs to durable flooring, nothing is too fussy.

回归自然 我们的反应是相对低技术的,剥离和简单。我们优先考虑自然环境、自然光和耐磨的天然材料,以适应设计要求。阶梯式的设计和折叠式的雕塑屋顶让光线充斥在生活区。

Back to nature Our response was relatively low tech, stripped back and simple. We prioritized the natural surrounds, natural light and hard-wearing natural materials to fit the brief. A stepped design and folded, sculptural roof lets light flood the living area.

内置的家具适合小面积的空间,深色的窗户让你可以坐下来,放松并感受到风景的一部分。我们对Darkwood进行了定位,以充分利用其惊人的环境。卧室、餐厅和客厅都可以看到东北方向的河景。场地本身也受到盛行风的保护,内部庭院也提供了遮蔽的户外空间。在澳大利亚本土的辉煌中,一个由马特亲自浇筑的整体混凝土壁炉向我们客户对日本的热爱表示敬意。

Built-in furniture fits the small footprint, with deep windows allowing you to sit, relax and feel part of the view. We positioned Darkwood to make the most of its breathtaking surrounds. Bedrooms, dining and living rooms look out over northeasterly river views. Then the site itself is protected from the prevailing winds, with an internal courtyard offering sheltered outdoor space too. Amidst Aussie native splendor, a monolithic concrete fireplace nods to our clients’ love for Japan, poured by Matt himself.

像这样一个陡峭的场地,许多人都会想做一个悬臂式的盒子。但我们感到自豪的是,Darkwood的阶梯式设计充分利用了景观,但仍然感觉到与周围的自然环境相连。它将户外的感觉带入室内。而且也没有栏杆阻挡视线。

With a steep site like this, many would be tempted to do a box cantilevered off a hill. But we’re proud of how Darkwood’s stepped design makes the most of the view, yet still feels connected to the nature around it. It brings the feeling of outdoors indoors. And there’s no balustrade blocking the view, either.
