Angle Grinder之家
Angle Grinder House | Mark Frazerhurst Architect

Angle Grinder House是一座一居住宅，位于奥克兰一处陡峭火山口边缘。这里地形挑战重重，看似不利于建造，但是很有潜力。业主购得这块空地，想专门为父母打造一座小居住规模的房子。设计师考虑传统观念，将设计贴合他们的需求、喜好及居住的独特性。

Located on the edge of a steep volcanic crater cone in Auckland, this one-bedroom Angle Grinder House offers a unique opportunity. Despite the challenging terrain that might seem unsuitable for construction, we saw the potential for a remarkable project for my parents, who wanted to downsize and had acquired the vacant property. However, the original home requirements exceeded the modest construction budget, so we had to reconsider conventional notions and tailor the design to fit their needs, preferences, and unique aspects of living. We carefully scrutinized every aspect of the design and details, evaluated the cost, and reassessed them before finalizing the plan.



设计理念

该建筑生活区域有着了广阔的全景视野，能看到远处的火山口对面以及下方葱郁公园的景色。由于特殊的地形，房屋的朝向与周围植被共同抵御来自豪拉基海湾东北部和西北部的强烈岸风。磨角机之家的设计灵感来源于一件雕塑作品——一卷波纹铁皮沿山坡蜿蜒而下。该建筑结构呈黑色纹理，优雅地折叠，内外创造出引人入胜的空间。这一元素既是屋顶也是墙体，连接着每个楼层并顺坡而下。

Angle Grinder House’s Design Concept
The living area provides a vast, panoramic view that captures the distant side of the crater cone and the lush park views below. The house’s orientation and surrounding vegetation protect against onshore solid winds from both the North-East and North-West, originating from the Hauraki Gulf. The Angle Grinder House’s design draws inspiration from a sculpture that depicts a roll of corrugated iron winding down a hillside. The structure is textured black and folds gracefully, creating engaging spaces inside and outside the Angle Grinder House. This element is a roof and wall plane, connecting each level and descending the slope.





建筑的折叠结构由覆盖在木材下的柱子支撑，并创造出朝内的空间，显得更为私密。

The Angle Grinder House’s folding structure is supported by sections covered in timber, which contain more private and inward-facing areas. Our goal was to manage the Angle Grinder House’s design, construction, and building ourselves. We prioritized design and finish quality but had a relatively inflexible budget for construction, so we had to compromise on the only aspect within our control—time.



我们选择装修材料时考虑到它们的手工可操作性、适应性、成本效益、易于操作及触感品质。我们的建造过程基于这样一个理念：建筑的某些部分将在现场以更小、更易操作的零件手工制作（如覆层屏风、倒置天花板桁架等），以避免使用机器吊装。此外，我们直接在现场定制构建了多种建筑部件（例如门、楼梯等），以此减少总建造成本。

We selected finishing materials based on their hand workability, adaptability, budget-friendliness, ease of handling, and tactile qualities. Our approach to the construction process was based on the idea that certain parts of the building fabric would be hand-fabricated on-site in smaller, manageable segments (such as cladding screens, inverted ceiling trusses, etc.) to avoid machine lifting. Moreover, we custom-built various building components directly on-site (e.g., doors, stairs, etc.) to minimize the overall construction cost of elements typically fabricated off-site.





我们对标准建筑材料进行了巧妙且费时的改造，增强了视觉趣味和饰面创新。例如，我们在木材衬里上开槽雕刻图案，在底层覆层上切口以便于底层通风。同时，在创造这个独一无二的家园过程中，我们加深了家庭成员间的情感纽带。

We made several cost-effective yet labor-intensive modifications to standard building materials, enhancing interest and finishing innovation. For instance, we routed patterned grooves in timber linings and notched holes in the subfloor cladding for subfloor ventilation. This profoundly immersive personal project took time, effort, and dedication, and we learned many valuable lessons. We also forged a solid familial bond while creating this unique, once-in-a-lifetime home.
