客户在找我做这个项目时,对他们想要建造什么类型的建筑有一些相当固定的概念;他们想要一个单坡屋顶,并对他们所需的平方英尺有一个非常好的想法。 房子是他们可以进行各种创意项目的地方,这个想法从一开始就很明显;她是一个作家,他是一个摄影师和音乐家。
The clients had some pretty set notions of what type of building they wanted to build when they approached me to work on this project; they wanted a mono-pitched roof and had a very good idea of the square footage they required. The idea of the house being a place where they could work on their various creative projects was eminent from the onset; she is a writer and he's a photographer and a musician.




我真的想把这个典型的 "被动式太阳能 "或 "绿色 "房屋的形象,从 "绿色建筑 "的典型原型中,找出一些独特的细节。单坡屋顶非常适用于我们的严冬,我想想出一种方法,使悬垂看起来很酷,使一个功能细节成为项目美学的一个组成部分。这座房子使用了最先进的材料和建筑技术,例如其数控生产的工程木结构为它赢得了LEED铂金认证。
I really wanted to take this image of a typical “solar passive” or “green” house and work out some unique details which moved away from the typical archetypes of “green architecture”. The mono-pitch roof is extremely well suited for our harsh winters, I wanted to come up with a way that made overhangs look cool, for a functional detail to become an integral part of the project's aesthetics. The house makes use of cutting-edge materials and building techniques like its CNC-produced engineered wood structure earning it a LEED platinum certification.


建筑物采用了烧焦的雪松,而它的天花板和檐口则采用了白杨木。这座房子的黑暗性质与它轻盈明亮、空气清新的内饰形成鲜明对比。取代通常的画框窗户,决定选择一系列高大的矩形窗户;让人联想到柱廊,是为了产生一种沉浸在周围森林的感觉。该住宅的不同天花板高度为一个单层建筑提供了大量的空间。
The building is clad in charred cedar, while its ceilings and soffits are in white aspen. The dark nature of the house contrasts with its light and bright airy interiors. Instead of the usual picture frame ones, the decision to opt for a series of tall rectangular windows; reminiscent of a colonnade, is meant to generate a feeling of immersion in the surrounding woods. The home’s varying ceiling height offers a large variety of spaces for a one-story building.


除了传统的功能外,房子还提供了两个朝北的工作室;一个用于写作,另一个用于照片编辑,还有两个朝南的工作室;一个用于音乐,另一个用于制作,照片和写作工作室的设计方式使它们与住宅的其他部分融为一体,使它们成为我们从一个空间到另一个空间的流通方式的一部分,而不是封闭的房间。
Along with the traditional functions, the house offers 2 north facing studios; one for writing and the other for photo editing and 2 south-facing studios; one for music and the other for fabrication, The photo and writing studios are designed in a way that they are integrated into the rest of the home by making them part of the way we circulate from one space to another as opposed to being closed rooms.

一个有东面大窗户的不朽的沐浴区,是对浴室空间进行重新思考的尝试,它具有空旷的感觉和引人注目的照明。这所房子的设计方式是为了促进创造力,同时允许一对夫妇同时分开但又在一起。
A monumental bathing area with a large east-facing window is an attempt at rethinking bathroom spaces with its cavernous feel and dramatic lighting. The house is designed in a way to foster creativity while allowing for a couple to be simultaneously separate but together.
