一座能够在现场产生、捕获和提供一切所需的房屋。一个能将其对环境的影响降到最低的房子。这是我们客户的雄心壮志，同时也创造了一个慷慨和愉快的生活环境。甘比尔山石灰岩的外壳被凿开，形成了几个精心安排的窗孔。那些临街的窗户被排列起来，以实现采光，但控制隐私和太阳能进入卧室。北立面较大的开孔允许太阳和天空景观的进入。最大的开孔是一个中央的、有阴影的庭院，它将自然光、通风和冬季的阳光引入房屋的中心。这个环境包括一个种植的池塘，里面有一个木制的书房。一切都围绕着这个平静和沉思的中心，但又能看到周围郁郁葱葱的花园，并与之联系。

A house that can generate, capture and provide everything it needs on site. A house that minimises its environmental impact beyond the site. This was our client’s ambition, while also creating a generous and delightful living environment. An outer shell of Mt Gambier limestone is carved away to create several carefully orchestrated window apertures. Those on the street are aligned to achieve light but control privacy and solar ingress into the bedrooms. Larger openings on the north elevation allow for ingress of sun and sky views. The largest aperture is a central, shaded courtyard that draws in natural light, ventilation and the winter sun into the heart of the house. The setting includes a planted pond in which sits a timber lined study. Everything is set around this calm and contemplative centre, but with views and links outward to a lush surrounding garden.

从街上看，一个宽阔的楼梯通向一个确定入口的钢制门户。在室内，各个空间都围绕着庭院设置。自然光从不同的来源充斥着整个房子，同时又保持着良好的遮蔽。客厅和餐厅、厨房、化妆间、主卧室套房和两个专门的书房占据了地面层。客房、浴室和屋顶厨房花园位于一楼的上方。地下室容纳了大部分的建筑服务设备、酒窖、贮藏室、音乐工作室和汽车。花园经过精心设计，着重强调了本地种植。

From the street, a broad sweeping stair leads to a steel portal that identifies the entry. Inside, the spaces are set around the courtyard. Natural light fills the house from various sources whilst remaining well shaded. Living and dining, kitchen, powder room, main bedroom suite and two dedicated studies occupy the ground level. Guest bedrooms, bathrooms, and a roof-top kitchen garden are located above at first floor level. A basement houses most of the building services equipment, a wine cellar, larder, music studio and cars. The garden has been sensitively landscaped with a strong emphasis on native planting.

石灰石是一种天然材料，取自当地，从采石场提取非常简单。它的生产需要最少的能源支出。石材的切割、切片、铺设和细部设计都体现了制作者的手艺，这往往是为了达到创造性的结果–放射状的平面、悬臂式的末端或斜向的开口。饭厅亭子和书房的回收木材覆盖层最终将被风化成银灰色。房子的外观会随着时间的推移，木材和石头接受风化而不断变化。房子的内部有一个还原的、安静的材料调色板，重点放在适应手和眼睛的细节上。来自昆士兰的淤泥岩地砖与石灰岩墙壁相得益彰。来自新南威尔士州的回收黑胡桃被用于木材覆层和窗框。回收的塔斯马尼亚橡木被加工成地板、室内衬垫和细木工制品。

Limestone is a natural material, locally sourced, and is very simply extracted from the quarry. Its production requires minimal energy expenditure. The hand of the maker is in evidence as the stone is cut, sliced, laid and detailed, often to achieve inventive outcomes – a radiused plan, a cantilevered end, or an oblique opening. Recycled timber cladding to the dining room pavilion and study will eventually weather to a silver grey. The appearance of the house will evolve, as the timber and stone accept a patina of weathering over time. The interior of the house has a reductive, quiet material palette with a focus on details that accommodate the hand and eye. Siltstone floor tiles from Queensland complement limestone walls. Recycled blackbutt from New South Wales is used for timber cladding and window frames. Reclaimed Tasmanian oak is crafted into flooring, interior linings and joinery.

为了实现项目的可持续发展目标，实施了两个免费和自愿的标准。采用帕斯豪斯原则，通过创造一个令人难以置信的高性能和不间断的建筑围护结构，实现了一个舒适的生活环境，使用最小的能源输入。在受控的工厂环境中预制保温外壳有助于实现质量控制。使用带有热回收功能的100%新鲜空气机械通风系统，实现了卓越的室内空气质量。此外，”生活建筑挑战 “指导我们选择健康的本地材料，并采用离网方式进行能源和水管理。作为一个研究项目和设计工作，要实现如此雄心勃勃的可持续发展目标，需要每个参与者的高度合作。

Two complimentary and voluntary standards were implemented to reach the sustainability ambitions of the project. Adopting Passivhaus principles achieved a comfortable living environment using minimal energy input by creating an incredibly high performing and uninterrupted building envelope. Prefabrication of the thermal shell in a controlled factory environment helped to achieve quality control. Superior indoor air quality is attained using a 100% fresh air mechanical ventilation system with heat recovery. In addition, the Living Building Challenge directed the selection of healthy, local materials and an off-grid approach to energy and water management. As much a research project as design effort, to realise such ambitious sustainability goals required a highly collaborative effort from everyone involved.
