架构师提供的文本描述。对于Toms McNally设计来说，架构是对上下文的响应。米尔格罗夫之家位于汉密尔顿农村，坐落在一处地产上，里面有一个废弃的苹果园和一个供当地使用的种植干草的农场。位于成熟的树木线和森林之间，该地点正在轻轻滚动。因此，设计策略是利用地形来保持街道的适度外观，同时为一对有四个成年子女的中年夫妇提供一个宽敞的家。

Text description provided by the architects. For Toms + McNally Design, Architecture is a response to context. Millgrove House, located in rural Hamilton, sits on a property that contained an abandoned apple orchard, and a hay-growing farm for local use. Situated between mature treelines and forests, the site is gently rolling. As a result, the design strategy was to use the topography in order to maintain a modest appearance from the street while providing a spacious home for a middle-aged couple with four adult children.

作为一个舒适的地方，娱乐和长大，房子的目的是容纳他们不断扩大的家庭，包括孙子孙女。厨房、餐厅和客厅-他们一起做饭、花时间和回忆的空间-是房子的焦点所在。这些空间结合在一起，在一个慷慨的体积上限与一个斜面道格拉斯冷杉屋顶上升到南方，开辟了广阔的景观草地和森林。较低的水平-一场由地形图造成的罢工-几乎完全保持了栏的自由，保持了它的明亮和不遮掩景观的景色。

A place to live in comfortably, entertain and grow older, the house aims to accommodate their expanding family including the grandchildren. The kitchen, dining and living rooms—the spaces in which they cook, spend time and make memories together—are the focal points of the of the house. These spaces are combined in one generous volume capped with a sloped douglas fir roof rising to the south, opening up expansive views of the meadows and forests. The lower level—a walkout made possible by the topography of the site—is kept almost entirely column free, keeping it bright and not obscuring views of the landscape.

除了建造一座符合客户的环境和独特生活方式的房子外，Toms McNally Design的团队还尝试了如何定义和使用自然材料和日照来给居民带来快乐。使用天然材料对客户非常重要，因此该项目的调色板包括三种木材(道格拉斯杉木屋顶梁和甲板、核桃和白橡木地板)以及石灰石和锌。此外，使用高质量的材料，包括石材，导致了高度的可持续性，随着建筑的成熟，对维修的要求也较低。

In addition to building a house that responds to the context and unique lifestyles of the client, the team at Toms + McNally Design experimented with how space is defined and used natural materials and day lighting to bring joy to the residents. Using natural materials was very important to the client, thus the palette for the project includes three types of wood (douglas fir roof beams and deck, walnut and white oak flooring) as well as limestone, and zinc. Moreover, the use of high quality materials, including stone, resulted in a high level of sustainability with low maintenance requirements as the building matures.

该机械系统包括地热冷却和加热以及用于地板采暖和家用热水的中央锅炉。为了增加家庭的能量效率，窗户对他们的暴露（即，北方不同于南方）做出响应，深的突出物提供被动的阴影，热量通过板内管道提供，并且双立柱外壁允许连续的绝缘。电气系统由LED照明和附近附属厂房屋顶上的太阳能电池板组成。结构上，基础和地下室均为混凝土，主级采用后张法混凝土梁；木柱结构采用DouglasFIR梁的主级和在形成主中心容积的隐蔽钢框架上的舌和槽盖板。除木材外，整个工程使用石灰石（来自OwenSound附近的采石场）作为覆层、外硬骨、室内瓷砖地板，并环绕实木地板燃烧壁炉。深灰色锌闪光和墙板给建筑一个抛光的、精致的外观。

The Mechanical System includes Geothermal cooling and heating as well as central boiler for in-floor heating and domestic hot water. To add to the home’s energy efficiency, the windows respond to their exposure (ie, north is different than south), deep overhangs provide passive shading, heat is provided through in-slab piping, and double stud exterior walls allow for continuous insulation. The Electrical System is comprised of LED lighting with solar panels on the roof of the nearby accessory building. Structurally, the foundation and the basement are in concrete with a post tensioned concrete beam at the main level; wood stud structure frames the main level with Douglas fir beams and tongue and groove decking on a concealed steel frame forming the main central volume. In addition to the wood, limestone (from quarries near Owen Sound) is used throughout the project as cladding, exterior hardscaping, interior tile flooring, and surround the real wood burning fireplace. Dark grey zinc flashings and wall panels give the building a polished, sophisticated appearance.

该团队，在Toms McNally设计，与他们的客户协作，以创造性地回应他们的项目和其独特的特点。他们把问题看作是机遇，把环境、空间、以及对物质和环境的尊重结合起来，创造持久的建筑。对于这个项目，他们提供施工管理服务和设计。这种方法允许高水平的完成和控制成品。米尔格罗夫之家是一座令人印象深刻的建筑，它似乎是出于它在安大略省汉密尔顿的背景，成为一个成长中的家庭的家。

The team, at Toms + McNally Design, collaborates with their clients to creatively respond to their project and its unique characteristics. They see problems as opportunities, combining context, space, and a respect of materiality and environment to create enduring architecture. For this project, they provided Construction Management services as well as design. This approach allowed for a high level of finish and control of the finished product. Millgrove House is a globally-impressive architecture that intentionally appears to have stemmed from its context, in Hamilton Ontario, into a home for a growing family.
