围场的房子位于裸露的横坡上，在放牧的牛群和袋鼠之间的黑麦草田里，向北可以看到远处的山谷。房子通过一系列有框架的孔洞与这些景色相连。
Paddock house sits exposed cross-slope, in a field of rye grass amongst grazing cattle and kangaroos with distant valley views to the north. The house connects to these views via a series of framed apertures in the volume of the house.
在外部，建筑被包裹在预先密封的生水泥板中，以提供一个坚固和无需维护的表面。外部的生活空间是由它雕刻而成的，并衬以对比强烈的暖色调胶合板。
Externally the building is wrapped in a skin of pre sealed raw cement sheet to provide a robust and nil maintenance finish. Volumes for external living are then carved from this and lined with contrasting warm toned plywood.
在内部，原材料托盘继续使用混凝土块建造的墙壁，为温暖的木材单板和胶合板天花板提供一个中性和纹理的背景。
Internally, the raw materials pallet continues with walls constructed of concrete block to provide a neutral and textural backdrop to the warmth of timber veneer joinery and plywood ceilings.
一个简单的矩形平面格式将卧室和湿润的地方放在西边，生活空间放在东边。
A simple rectangular plan format places bedrooms and wet areas to the west and the living space to the east.
小型主卧室的细节很简单，白色石膏板和混凝土块的墙壁形成了鲜明的对比，步入式长袍的胶合板隔断在混凝土块的墙壁上弯曲。儿童卧室的特点是用胶合板衬垫的高架睡眠平台，最大限度地利用了这些占地面积小的房间的可用空间，下层提供了一个全宽的学习桌和游戏空间。
The small master bedroom is simply detailed with contrasting white plasterboard and concrete block walls and a plywood partition to the walk-in robe that curves itself onto the concrete block wall. Kids bedrooms feature elevated sleeping platforms lined with plywood and maximise the useable space of these small footprint rooms with the lower level providing a full width study desk and play space.
单一的起居室、餐厅和厨房体量向北打开，进入一个过渡性的阳台，主要的户外生活区在东边，通过一堵玻璃推拉门进入。这个空间利用半透明的滑板门来调整气候，从夏季的凉爽走廊到冬季的受保护的户外房间。它的北边非常适合在冬天的阳光下闲逛。
The singular living dining and kitchen volume opens to the north onto a transitional verandah with the main outdoor living area to the east, accessed via a wall of glazed sliding doors. This space utilises a translucent sliding panel door to adjust its climate from cool breezeway in summer to protected outdoor room during blustery winter months. Its northern edge perfect for lazing in the winter sun.
环境的可持续发展是设计的组成部分：被动的措施，如北方的朝向，高效的横流通风路径用于夏季降温，计算好的屋檐悬垂用于冬季温暖的阳光穿透，与一流的热泵热水系统和灰水循环相配合。该房屋与该地块上的另一栋房屋共用一个4.5kW的太阳能电池阵列–这是允许输入农村物业3kVa变压器的最大功率。瓷砖完成的混凝土楼板和绝缘的砌块墙提供了充足的热质量，确保房子冬暖夏凉。
Environmental sustainability is integral to the design: passive measures such as northern orientation, efficient cross flow ventilation paths for summer cooling and calculated eaves overhangs for warming winter sun penetration are partnered with a best in class heat pump hot water system and grey water recycling. The house shares a 4.5kW solar array with another house on the lot – the maximum allowed to be fed into the rural properties 3kVa transformer. The tile finished concrete floor slab and insulated blockwork walls provide ample thermal mass, ensuring the house is warm in winter and cool in summer.
车棚和通往房屋的有盖通道同样采用了高度耐用和无需维护的材料–锌合金包层和原始的镀锌钢柱与该地区的农村实用大棚紧密结合在一起，几乎没有传达出房屋的高度细节。
A carport and covered link to the house are similarly constructed from highly durable and nil maintenance materials – zinclaume cladding and raw galvanised steel columns tie in closely with the utilitarian rural sheds of the region and convey little of the highly detailed house beyond.
