建筑师：这套四卧室的家庭住宅位于南非高登省艾琳郊区的一个生态住宅上。在这种田园景观上建造住宅有严格的设计规定。此外，气候决定了房屋空间与场地地形之间的密切关系。受这些与自然协同作用的要求的影响，设计有其起源于日性的概念。为了达到这一平衡，利用了自然生长过程的美，然后是向日葵。

From the architect: This four-bedroomed family home is located on an eco-estate in the farmlike suburb of Irene on the Highveld of Gauteng Province, South Africa. Strict design prescripts exist for the construction of dwellings on this pastoral landscape. In addition, the climate dictated an intimate relationship between the spaces of the house with the topography of the site. Influenced by these demands for synergy with nature, the design had its genesis in the concept of heliotropism. To achieve this balance, the beauty of the natural growth processes followed by sunflowers was utilised.

 Ground Floor Plan

每一个充满活力的生活空间都被放置在这样的位置上，使得它能够最好地暴露在阳光和其他生态因素下，就像向日葵本身的小花一样。双层结构还模拟了植物茎的差异生长，当光照不均匀的情况下，生长素在阴面积累。

Each cube of dynamic living space was situated such that it allowed for the best possible exposure to sunlight and other eco factors, much like the florets of the sunflower itself. The double-storey also mimics the differential growth of the stem of the plant where an auxin accumulates on the shaded side when conditions of unequal light prevail.

面向太阳的外观设计是为了提供最大限度的隐私，并为公共空间和私人空间之间的关系提供了一个明确的定义。铁包层在视觉上包覆了结构的部分，与红砖和混凝土形成了几乎像苔藓一样的黑色共生关系。这与周围绿色植物直接接触的结构后面的光线形成了鲜明的对比。楼梯在建筑的不同元素之间形成坚实的锚。

The façade facing away from the sun is designed to provide maximum privacy and provides a clear definition in the relationship between the public and private spaces. The iron cladding that envelops parts of the structure visually forms almost a dark, moss-like symbiotic relationship with the red bricks and concrete. It is in stark contrast to the light-infused back of the structure which is in direct contact with the verdant surrounds. The staircase forms a solid anchor between the different elements of the construction.

基本的和整体的形式被分为棱角混凝土框架空间，指定生活，餐饮，烹饪，娱乐和睡眠区。顶层是卧室。每个房间的隐私都受到重视，因为它们被下面的生活区分成了两翼。

The basic and monolithic form is divided into angular concrete-framed spaces designating the living, dining, cooking, entertainment and sleeping areas. The top floor houses the bedrooms. The privacy of each room was valued as they are separated into two wings by the living areas below.
