这座农舍坐落在2英亩农田的东南角,南边是一条小溪,北边是耕地,西边是雄伟的森林景观,下坡路。

This farmhouse is perched in the southeast corner of a 2-acre farmland flanked by a stream to the south, cultivated farmland to the north and a majestic forest view, downhill towards the west.

一个中央工作室空间与一个附属的茶水间和厕所构成了布局的核心区域,与一个卧室和厕所套房搭配,使用一个楔形的阳台空间作为户外生活空间。工作室周围的阳台允许未来扩大布局,进一步增加卧室套房。房屋的楔形设计旨在捕捉保护区森林的静谧景色,并创造遮蔽的户外生活区,以便在自然环境中度过户外而非室内的时光。

A central studio space with an attached pantry and toilet forms the core area of the layout, paired with a bedroom and toilet suite linked using a wedged verandah space for outdoor living space. The verandah envelopes around the studio allow for future expansion of the layout with further addition of bedroom suites. The wedged plan of the house looks to capture the tranquil view of the reserve forest beyond and create shaded outdoor living pockets to spend time outdoors rather than indoors, given the natural setting.

材料调色板:承重石地基、结构性夯土墙和泥灰砖填充板以及钢架瓦屋顶决定了平面图的大小和布局的可能性。夯土墙采用4’和6’的模块,以方便夯实、提升和移动模板,也是基于对用于百叶窗框架的胶合板的优化。在基座和门楣水平上,以两个结构环梁的形式使用了最少的混凝土来连接夯土板。砖块被有选择地用在潮湿的地方,用于隐藏水管和瓷砖,在窗台下面用于隐藏电线,以及在门框周围,以确保锚定的方便。

The material palette: loadbearing stone foundations, structural rammed earth walls and mud-plastered brick infill panels with a steel framed tile roof dictated floor plan sizing and layout possibilities. The rammed earth walls are in 4’ and 6’ modules for ease of ramming, lifting, and shifting of formwork also based on the optimization of plywood sheets used for shuttering frames. Minimal concrete has been used in the form of two structural ring beams tying the rammed earth panels at plinth and lintel levels. Brickwork has been selectively used in wet areas for concealing plumbing lines and tiling, below window sill levels for concealed electrical conducting and around door frames to ensure ease of anchoring.

建筑中使用的所有泥土都是在流域管理和创建池塘储存雨水径流的过程中就地挖掘出来的。场地本身已经用一系列的护堤和沼泽进行了景观设计,以确保减少雨水径流和宝贵的表土的侵蚀。种植计划围绕着三个独立的口袋,房子周围的花园,食物森林和农场。回收的材料,如浴室墙壁上的饮料瓶作为天窗,废弃的金属自行车轮轴作为门窗的保护性栅栏,破碎的瓷砖碎片作为瓷器马赛克镶嵌在当地的石头地板上,为项目增添了细节和色彩。

All the earth used in the construction was excavated in situ, during the process of watershed management and the creation of a pond for storage of rainwater runoff. The site itself has been landscaped with a series of berms and swales to ensure curtailing of stormwater runoff and erosion of valuable topsoil. Planting plans revolve around three separate pockets, a garden around the house, a food forest and a farm. Recycled materials such as beverage bottles in the bathroom walls for skylights, discarded metal cycle wheel axils in the protective grills for doors and windows and broken tile chips as china mosaic inserts in the local stone flooring add details and color to the project.

这个项目努力使普通观众能够感受到土建筑,同时考虑到维护和耐久性。厕所的瓷砖墙面确保了清洁的方便性,隐蔽的导电装置防止了普遍存在的老鼠威胁,石头地基的基座上有一条混凝土隔离带,防止了土墙中的白蚁,确保了这个结构易于长期维护。

This project strives to make earth construction palpable for a general audience keeping in mind maintenance and durability. Features such as tiled walls in the toilets ensure easy cleaning, concealed electrical conducting protecting against the prevalent mice menace and stone foundations with an isolating band in concrete at the plinth level protecting against termites in earth walls ensure easy long-term upkeep of this structure.
