House in Sabino Springs

由专筑网Brick，刘庆新编译

来自建筑事务所的描述。客户和建筑师的愿景统一成艺术和建筑的完美表现，在建筑行业中很少有这样的案例。我们非常有幸与一对夫妇合作，他们专注于极简主义理念的魅力，让我们在亚利桑那州图森山麓设计一座别墅，它位于非常多样化的索诺兰沙漠。业主有精致的对比感，要求设计一座“现代简约的住宅：一座简朴的盒式建筑，似乎降落在沙漠中。”

From the architect. There are only a few instances in an architectural career where a client and an architect’s vision unify into an immaculate and complete expression of art and architecture. We were very fortunate to work with a couple who, devoted to the ideals of minimalism’s stark allure, asked us to design a house in the foothills of Tucson, Arizona, located in the profoundly diverse Sonoran Dese rt. The owners’ refined sense of contrast required a “modern, minimal home: a pristine box that seemed to have landed in the desert.”

该别墅位于山腰，要求我们利用广阔的景色，同时保护业主精心收藏的艺术品和现代家具，并且保护沙漠本身。这些不同条件造成了主要生活空间到上层楼的高度。相当大的移位减少了建筑足迹和施工影响，并且重申了使别墅轻轻降落在地上的业主愿景。凯文•霍华德认为“沙漠恢复很慢”，从别墅的精确位置和场地上的大量仙人掌中可以看到这点。

The house’s hillside location required that we take advantage of the boundless vistas while protecting the owners’ carefully curated collection of art and modernist furniture as well as the desert itself. These diverging conditions resulted in the elevation of the major living spaces to the upper floor. The considerable programmatic shift reduced the footprint and the construction impact, as well as reiterating the owners’ vision of gently touching down upon the earth. Kevin Howard’s assertion that “The desert is very slow to heal” can be seen in the surgical location of the residence around and within the numerous Saguaros on the site.

走廊空间及适当的防护措施包裹着建筑。密斯式玻璃墙被替换成洁净的玻璃框罩，保护深深嵌入的玻璃板。客户从伦佐•皮亚诺设计的芝加哥艺术学院现代之翼的中庭获得灵感和热情。室内楼梯充当中心装饰品，与主中庭形成对照，同时匹配其明晰精致的细节设计。中庭存放着业主的大部分艺术收藏品，并且连接别墅的上下两层。中庭的高度使生活空间能透气，还能使人从不同位置欣赏各种艺术品。延伸的单个天窗位于走廊中间，表明时光的流逝，不损伤室内保存的珍贵艺术品。主客厅和餐厅朝南，在完美的畅通体量中框起下方沙漠的景色。

The inclusion of gallery space and its appropriate protective measures overlaid the architectural program. Miesian glass walls were replaced with a studied array of spotless shadow boxes protecting deeply recessed glass panes. The clients shared their inspiration and enthusiasm for Renzo Piano’s Atrium in the Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago. The interior stair acts as a tectonic centerpiece, contrasting the formal execution of the main atrium while matching its clarity and refinement in detailing. This Atrium houses the bulk of the owners’ art collection and connects the upper and lower floors of the residence. The height allows the living spaces to breathe and provides a new appreciation of the various pieces of art as they are viewed from different positions in the house. A single continuous skylight centered down the middle of the gallery marks the passage of time without harming the cherished art held within. The main living and dining spaces face south, framing the view of the desert below in a perfect unobstructed volume.
