CAARCH公司受客户委托，在靠近Mudgee镇的一处乡村地产上设计了一个小型的精品住宿项目。Gawthorne’s Hut诞生于新南威尔士州的干旱时期，目的是帮助土地所有者为该地产开发多元化的收入，到目前为止，该地产100%依赖于传统的养牛和放牧模式。该项目的目的是创造一个独特的和可持续的旅游体验，直接回应该地产的历史和背景。

CAARCH was engaged by the client to design a small boutique accommodation offering on a rural property close to the town of Mudgee. Gawthorne’s Hut was born in the midst of the NSW Drought to assist the landowner to develop a diversified income for the property that was until now 100% reliant on a traditional cattle breeding and grazing model. The project’s intent was to create a unique and sustainable tourism experience that responds directly to the history and context of the property.

有棱有角的镀锌外壳和丰富的木材内衬参考了农村主要的干草棚和附属建筑，特别是现有的干草棚，在2017年被风暴摧毁。镀锌钢的倾斜屋顶形式既是对现有棚屋遗迹的参考，也是客户对建筑上的太阳能电池组的渴望。倾斜的形式在内部通过黑木耳衬里的天花板得到了强调，这也为东部的山谷景观提供了框架。

The angled galvanized clad shell and rich timber-lined interior reference the predominant rural vernacular of hay sheds and outbuildings and in particular the existing hay shed that was destroyed by a storm in 2017. The angled roof form of galvanized steel is both a reference to the relic of the existing shed and also the client’s desire to accommodate the solar array on the building. The angled form is emphasized internally through a blackbutt lined ceiling which also frames the valley views to the East.

回收的砖块被精心地重新利用，这些砖块来自于原来别墅中唯一幸存的部分–壁炉。空间内的再生砖墙是对现有烟囱的一种调侃，同时也允许服务从天花板上下来，为浴室提供一定程度的隔离。砖块的堆砌强调了砖块不再是承重物的事实。整体材料调色板是温暖和诱人的，天然黑驳木在内部和外部广泛使用。Gawthorne’s Hut是以该物业的历史主人Benjamin Gawthorne命名的，回收的砖块来自他原来的小屋的遗迹。

The recycled bricks have been meticulously repurposed from the only surviving part of the original cottage on the property, the fireplace. The recycled brick wall within the space is a tongue-in-cheek reference to the existing chimney while also allowing services to come down from the ceiling and provide a degree of separation to the bathroom. The stack bond coursing emphasizes the fact that the bricks are no longer load-bearing. The overall material palette is warm & inviting, with natural black-butt timber used extensively inside & outside. Gawthorne’s Hut is named after the historical owner of the property Benjamin Gawthorne, the recycled bricks coming from the remains of his original cottage.

该物业向客人展示了建造较小的占地面积和纳入可持续设计元素的机会。该项目采用了离网太阳能系统和电池存储，40,000升的雨水存储，双层玻璃黑布门窗，通过抛光混凝土板的热质量，燃气热水，高效的浴室设备，以及通过服务围墙创建的西部缓冲区的被动式遮阳。第二阶段将在西部和南部的玻璃上增加遮阳，但客户希望在完成工程之前先评估12个月的热性能。该项目的关键是隐蔽服务设施，以便不影响风景如画的乡村环境和游客体验。我们做了很大的努力，将服务设施隐藏在视线之外，在西侧立面开了一扇大型的镀锌板门，露出了仓库。

The property demonstrates to guests the opportunities of building smaller footprints and incorporating sustainable design elements. Incorporated in this project is an off-grid solar system and battery storage, 40,000 Litres of rainwater storage, Double glazed blackbutt windows and doors, thermal mass via a polished concrete slab, gas hot water, efficient bathroom fixtures, and passive solar shading via the Western buffer created by the services enclosure. Stage 2 will see the addition of shading to western and southern glazing however the client is looking to assess the thermal performance over 12 months first before completing the works. Critical to the project is the concealment of the services so as to not detract from the picturesque rural setting and visitor experience. Great effort has been taken to conceal services out of sight with large galvanized clad door to the Western façade opening to reveal storage

Gawthorne’s Hut的面积只有40平方米，其最小的占地面积是为了最大限度地利用开放的内部空间，并将景观带入。其朝向最大限度地扩大了东部和南部的视野。开口的安排是为了优先考虑Mudgee山谷的某些景观，例如从浴室和窄小的窗户可以看到床上的景色。

At only 40sqm in area, the minimal footprint of Gawthorne’s Hut was designed to make the most of the open-plan interiors & bring the landscape in. The orientation maximizes the views to the East & South. Openings have been orchestrated to prioritize certain views of the Mudgee Valley, such as that from the bath & the narrow window allowing a view from the bed.

Gawthorne’s Hut告诉我们，有时最小的干预措施也能带来最大的变化。

Gawthorne’s Hut has taught us that sometimes the smallest interventions have the ability to make the biggest difference.
