这一现代住宅追求室内外的完美融合并十分适应德班的亚热带气候。

This modern contemporary home seeks to seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living and was designed around the sub-tropical Durban climate.





这座住宅的设计意向是创造一个开放式的舒适居住空间，与周边环境相互融合。建筑师将住宅的轮廓与场地轮廓平行，创造了卧室“漂浮”在森林树冠之上的幻觉，同时也建立了一个自然的圆形剧场，免受风的侵袭。

The design intent for this house was to create a comfortable open plan living arrangement with great connection to its surroundings; moving the house forward and in line with the natural contours of the site aided in creating the illusion of the bedrooms 'floating' above the forests canopy whilst also setting up a natural amphitheatre protected from the wind.





从建筑的东侧穿过树木可看到大海，以及从建筑的西南部可看到独特的森林绿化带，主立面上玻璃的运用不仅能让两处景色达到最大限度的观赏效果，还能确保住宅中每一个房间都可以看到周边的景色。一层的所有玻璃滑动门可使一层向外开放，与大量的自然光相互结合，促进通风，赋予住宅一种开放的，静谧的氛围。一层的大面积窗更加强调出一层的开放空间。

The sea views over the trees to the east and picturesque views of the forests green belt to the south west are maximised by the main façades use of glazing, ensuring a view of the natural surroundings is captured from every room in the house. All glass sliding doors to the first floor disappear seamlessly into cavities giving the home a sense of openness and serenity with plenty of natural light and ventilation. The large expanse of glazing to the ground floor further emphasizes the open plan living.



围绕着建筑正立面的绿植促进了住宅与自然的融合。西立面上的高窗与低窗为顾客个人艺术收藏创造了美丽的走廊空间。

The planter around the front elevation of the house completes the immersion with nature. The high and low level windows to the west façade create a beautiful gallery space for the clients personal art collection.



有限的木材材质、混凝土以及石头被用来完善场地的自然美。

A restrained raw material palette of timber, concrete and stone have been used to complement the natural beauty of the site.
