架构师提供的文本描述。谢尔曼住宅位于加利福尼亚州洛杉矶圣费尔南多山谷上方的山坡上。该遗址独特的历史记录了该地区的园艺遗产。在第二次世界大战之前，该地区主要被商业柑橘林和其他农业所占据。战后，在住房繁荣时期，山谷的大部分被细分成住宅用地，但令人惊讶的是，谢尔曼的住宅用地仍未开发。由于这片土地以前还没有开发过，所以这里仍然有各种各样的树木和植物：本土的大型橡树和梧桐树，“工作”的植物，如橘子和鳄梨树，以及外来的棕榈树和肉质植物。

Text description provided by the architects. The Sherman Residence is located on a hillside lot above the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles, CA. The unique history of the site provides an exceptional record of the horticultural heritage of the area. Prior to World War II the area was primarily occupied by commercial citrus groves and other agriculture. After the war, much of the valley was subdivided to create residential tracts during the housing boom, but surprisingly the Sherman Residence site remained undeveloped. Because the land had not been previously developed the site still has a large variety of trees and plants: indigenous large oaks and sycamores, “working” plants such as orange and avocado trees, and exotic palms and succulents.

这所房子坐落在一座小山的底座上，三面围绕着一个庭院和游泳池。山坡包围着第四面。这所住宅与私人和公众的面孔截然不同。一系列的板制混凝土和玻璃展馆创造了一种强烈的封闭感沿私人脸，同时开放到现场的内部。马蹄形结构的展馆最大限度地看到了非凡的景观。间廊空间提供展馆之间的流通。展馆和连接的画廊上的玻璃立面构成了景观的框架，使大自然从家中的各种位置上获得了锐利的浮雕。整个组合是一个低矮的木梁屋顶，有着很深的悬垂。

Situated at the base of a hill, the house bounds a courtyard and swimming pool on three sides. The hillside encloses the fourth side. The residence juxtaposes distinctively private and public faces. A series of board-formed concrete and glass pavilions create a strong sense of enclosure along the private face while being open to the interior of the site. The horseshoe-shape configuration of the pavilions maximizes views of the extraordinary landscape. Interstitial gallery spaces provide circulation between the pavilions. Glass facades on both the pavilions and the connecting galleries frame the landscape, bringing nature into sharp relief from a variety of positions inside the home. Holding together the entire composition is a low-slung wooden beam roof with deep overhangs.
