俯瞰山脚下的风景,这栋房子从北到南横跨整个地块,让风景浸透到每个房间,并将私人花园和游泳池界定在西边,停车区与房子东边的小花园。一楼由一个开放的生活空间组成,一端是茶水间,另一端是一个客房。二楼是房屋的私人部分,两间卧室由中间的露天生活区连接。

Overlooking a scenic landscape near the foot of the mountain, this house was stretched from north to south across the plot to let the view soak into every room and defined the private garden and swimming pool to the west and parking area with a small garden to the east of the house. The first floor consists of an open living space with a pantry area on one end and a guest room on the other. Upon the second floor is the private part of the house with two bedrooms connected by an open-air living area in the middle.

当地材料是房子的基本元素。地板和屋顶的瓦片是由当地工匠制作的,他们的工作室离房子不远,回收的茶叶来自一座废弃的房子。为了保护房屋不受阳光照射,竹制百叶窗为令人愉悦的景色提供了一个精致的窗口,同时减少热量,让温和的微风沿着房屋的东面和西面吹进来。

Local materials are the essential elements of the house. Floor and roof tiles were made by local artisans whose workshops are not far from the house and reclaimed teaks are from an abandoned house. In order to protect the house from exposure to sunlight, bamboo louvers provide a delicate aperture to the delightful view while reducing the heat and letting in gentle breezes along the east and west facade of the house.

房屋的环境设计理念是拥抱和回应当地的气候条件。住宅的生活区被设计成交叉通风,以减少白天对空调的使用。延长的屋檐和沿外部开口的当地竹制百叶窗也可以防止阳光和雨水。这些设计元素和丰富的天然材料的选择,巧妙地使房屋与凉风、自然光和周围的自然环境相协调。

The environmental design concept of the house is to embrace and respond to its local climatic conditions. Living areas of the house are designed with cross ventilation to reduce the use of air-conditioning during daytime. An extended gable roof and local bamboo louvers along the exterior openings also prevent sunlight and rain. These design elements and the richness selection of natural materials are subtly added to harmonize the house with cool breeze, natural light, and the surrounding nature.

该项目寻求简单的设计方案,使用当地的材料和建筑方法,适合清迈的热带气候,为房屋带来一丝亚洲精神。通过这种方法,该项目希望确认可持续建筑不一定要依赖高科技,而是要有美感并对周围的生态环境敏感。

The project seeks for simple design solutions with the use of local materials and construction methods that suits the tropical climate of Chiang Mai and bring about a touch of Asian spirit to the house. With such approach, the project hopes to affirm that sustainable architecture does not have rely on high technology to be aesthetically pleasing and sensitive to the surround ecology.
