来自专筑编辑张可娜，Zita，刘庆新的报道。这座房子坐落在一座山顶上，在三棵大橡树下，房子前面是一个池塘。该项目主体量由三个层构成：地下室；包含入口，厨房和办公区的地面层；设置卧室和娱乐室的顶层。侧窗和天窗将自然光引入室内。该建筑主体量向西南方向延伸获得一个凉亭。亭子由四个立柱支撑，延伸出来的屋顶看上去很轻薄，里面还有一个壁炉，这里就被作为生活和餐饮区。可移动的玻璃让空间向庭院打开。该建筑细长的结构和薄薄的墙壁掩饰了它的大体量。

From the architect. The house sits atop a hill, under three large oaks, and is oriented towards a pond. The main volume is three stories – basement; ground level entry, kitchen, and offices; upstairs bedrooms and playroom. Windows and skylights target views and admit generous light. A pavilion extends southwest from the main volume and onto the most private portion of the site. Here, living and dining are sheltered under a broad, thin roof supported by four small columns and the hearth. Operable glass walls open this space to the yard. The slender form of the house and thin edges belie its size.

我们的客户要求我们在这个显著的地块上设计一座开放的房子，但还要能保护其隐私需求，并且建立内部和外部之间的亲密联系。建筑师将一个单独的家庭办公室添加到一个普通的住宅中。设计灵感来自于现代和日式设计，这种设计追求一种简洁，一种工艺程序的表现形式，依赖于材料和立面开口来清晰地表现出层高，阳光能反射到室内，光线很好，还能欣赏到美丽的景观。作为设计师，他们成熟的品味使我们能够投入到一种高效的设计合作中去。该建筑的主体量包含所有的私人空间和其他支撑元素。虽然在材料的组合和立面开口上能削弱一些视觉上的巨大尺度感，但它确是一个坚实的体量。

Our clients challenged us to design an open house on a prominent site that would still provide them privacy and create intimate connections between the interior and exterior. Separate home offices were added to an otherwise common residential program. Inspired by both Modern and Japanese design, they asked that we pursue a simple plan, craft a form expressive of the program, and rely on materials and openings to articulate the elevations and respond to views and the sun. As designers, their sophisticated tastes allowed us to lean into a productive design collaboration. The main volume of the house contains all private spaces and supporting elements. It is mainly solid, though the composition of materials and openings on the elevations reduces the perceived scale.

房子的南北两端分别是森林和池塘，二者美丽的景观都被尽收眼底。传统日本元素玄关等被融入了现代的室内设计中。精致的起居室和餐厅从主体空间向西南延伸。这个空间被一个大屋顶和三棵大橡树所遮蔽。依偎在房子和山体之间的凉亭提供了比普通的玻璃建筑更多的私密感。

The south and north ends of the main volume open to views of the pond and forest. Traditional Japanese genkan and tansu elements are integrated into a modern interior. A delicate living and dining pavilion extends southwest from the main volume, off the kitchen. This space is shaded by a broad roof and three large oak trees. Nestled between the house and the hill, the pavilion provides more privacy than one would imagine within a glass box.

该建筑是在混凝土地基上建造的木质结构。钢材屋顶向外延伸形成悬挑并延伸至池塘，这样房子显得很轻薄。建筑外立面由粉饰灰泥和当地的柏树皮构成。相反，起居室和餐厅主要是由四周的玻璃，和由一根细长的钢柱和壁炉架支撑的薄屋顶构成。围护结构用泡沫密封保温。所有的机械设备都在地下室，包括地源热泵、高效热泵和一个用于所有家庭照明和家庭自动化控制的机架系统。虽然房屋的照明系统很复杂。但天气好的时候，房子可以开放，由此接纳的自然光就足以取代人工照明。

The house is built of a wood frame on a concrete foundation. Steel is used to achieve thin, cantilevered roof edges and extensions of the south wall towards the pond. The main body of the house is skinned with stucco and local cypress. The living and dining pavilion, in contrast, is primarily glass and has a thin roof plane supported by slender steel columns and the hearth. The building envelope is sealed tightly with spray foam insulation. All mechanical devices are in the basement, including the pumps for the geothermal ground loop, a high-efficiency heat pump, and a rack system for all home lighting and home automation controls. Slab floors in the living and dining pavilion are heated by the geothermal system and all lighting is LED. Though systems in the house are sophisticated, evidence of them is suppressed. The house can open during pleasant months, and natural light admitted is sufficient to replace artificial lighting during the day.
