架构师提供的文本描述。坐落在默瑟岛的山坡上，华盛顿湖与西雅图相望，这座两层楼高的住宅强调了工艺、物质性和与户外的联系。客户对邻居隐私的渴望是通过住宅保护的L形设计来实现的。一个悬臂式的机翼-包括主卧室-与毗邻的房产保持一致，并将房子的其余部分从视野中筛选出来，以便在L.内建立一个私人避难所。悬臂部分捕捉到了华盛顿湖的集中景色。漆黑的雪松墙板包裹着这座4，400平方英尺房子的私人区域的外部，包括主套房.公共空间被铜板覆盖，形成了丰富的铜板。在里面，一个开放的初级居住空间是由一条牧师窗口包裹着，这些窗户可以在平衡的光线下沐浴室内。

Text description provided by the architects. Nestled into a Mercer Island hillside, across Lake Washington from Seattle, this intimate two-story residence emphasizes craft, materiality, and connection to the outdoors. The clients’ desire for privacy from neighbours is achieved through the home's protective, L-shaped design. A cantilevered wing—containing the master bedroom—aligns with the adjoining property and screens the rest of the house from view to create a private refuge within the L. The cantilevered element captures focused views of Lake Washington. Dark-stained cedar siding wraps the exterior of the private areas of the 4,400-square-foot house, including the master suite. Public spaces are clad with copper panels, which have developed a rich patina. Inside, an open primary living space is wrapped by a band of clerestory windows that bathe the interiors in a balanced light.

该设计还在更大的空间内雕刻出更舒适、更亲密的区域，包括降低天花板和在客厅角落形成一个黑色的钢面壁炉等特征。木箱和天花板的平面表面，确保整体的美学是温暖和诱人的。主套房-包括卧室、胡桃木接连的办公室和一个水疗浴室-用石灰石和桉树橱柜包着-提供了一种柔软的休息。私人空间与公共空间中变黑的混凝土地板和花岗岩形成了鲜明的对比。“这是关于思考你在一天中所处的位置，以及我们如何让你感到更平静或舒适，”建筑师说。

The design also carves cosier, more intimate areas within the larger space by integrating such features as lowered ceilings and a blackened, steel-faced fireplace that forms an inglenook in the corner of the living room. Wood casework and ceiling plane surface ensure the overall aesthetic is warm and inviting. The master suite—which comprises the bedroom, an adjoining office rendered in walnut, and a spa-like bathroom encased in limestone and eucalyptus cabinetry—provides a soft retreat. Private spaces provide a contrast to the blackened concrete floors and granite of the public spaces. “It’s about thinking where you are during the course of the day and how we can make you feel more calm or comfortable,” notes the architect.

 Floor Plan

与当地工匠的合作遍及家家户户-从入口和内门到变黑的钢楼梯、玻璃和金属吊灯、内部铜板，以及由木头、钢和混凝土制成的餐桌。入口门的特征是，一套古老的中国木板嵌在黑钢框架中。定制的家具包括一个木和钢餐桌和一个玻璃顶咖啡桌在客厅。内饰和草坪是突出客户的广泛的艺术收藏，由太平洋西北艺术家的绘画和雕塑的混合体。

Collaborations with local craftspeople can be found throughout the home—from entry and interior doors to the blackened steel staircase, a glass and metal chandelier, interior copper panels, and a dining table made of wood, steel and concrete. The entry door features a set of antique Chinese wood panels inset into the blackened-steel framing. Custom-designed furnishings include a wood-and-steel dining table and a glass-topped coffee table in the living area. The interiors and lawn are accented with the clients’ extensive art collection, a mix of paintings and sculptures by Pacific Northwest artists.
