Text description provided by the architects. Cultural context

Ness Point是一座位于多佛白崖戏剧性景观中的新房子。这位客户在当地长大，委托刘京建设计一座现代建筑，以回应这个地标建筑的文化遗产和他自己的家族遗产，暗示这座建筑在某种程度上可能是凯尔特人。

Ness Point is a new house set in the dramatic landscape of the White Cliffs of Dover. The client grew up in the locality and commissioned Tonkin Liu to design a modern building that responded to the cultural heritage of this landmark setting and to his own family heritage, suggesting that the building could in some ways be Celtic.

建筑景观

Architecture as landscape

埋伏在土地与起伏的厚墙沿其长度，奈斯点是作为一个旅程的观点，把周围的景观拉进房子。每个房间的方向都是不同的景观，横跨英吉利海峡的过往船只，朝向冬至时从海上升起的太阳，然后是被命名为Ness Point的海岸悬崖。

Hunkered into the land with undulating thick walls along its length, Ness Point is constructed as a journey with views that pull the surrounding landscape into the house. Each room is orientated towards a different aspect of the landscape, across the passing ships of the English Channel, towards the sun rising out of the sea at the winter solstice, and over to the coastal cliffs called Ness Point, after which the house is named.

暴露在元素中

Exposed to the elements

鉴于悬崖顶部位于海面65米处的暴露性质，这座房子被设计成一个高度密封和绝缘的围护结构。这座类似于Ness Point House的城堡利用了热回收和太阳能热再生系统，以最大限度地提高冬季的能源效率，而长廊天窗和生态通风口为同样暴露的夏季炎热的太阳提供了被动冷却。

In response to the exposed nature of cliff top site perched 65 meter above the sea, the house is designed as a highly sealed and insulated enclosure. The castle-like Ness Point House utilises heat recovery and solar thermal renewable systems to maximise energy efficiency in the winter, whilst the long gallery skylight and eco-vents enable passive cooling for equally exposed hot summer sun.

海绵体体积

Cavernous volume

虽然形式不规则，但用于建造房屋的建筑技术却是传统的。起伏平面图和倾斜段的综合效果创造了一个洞穴内部空间，它已经被阐明，以允许使用的灵活性。室内捕捉到一天中不断变化的光线的活力，使建筑成为不断变化的沿海天气的一部分。

Although the form is irregular the constructional techniques used to construct the house are traditional. The combined effect of undulating plan and inclined sections creates a cavernous internal space that has been articulated to allow flexibility of use. The interior catches the dynamism of the day’s changing light so that the building becomes a part of the larger canvas of ever-changing coastal weather.

时间景观

Landscape of time 

Ness Point的设计就好像它是从嵌入它的土地上生长出来的。生物多样性的绿色屋顶向下倾斜到后方的土地上，保留雨水和庇护当地的野生动物，随着时间的推移，把房子合并成海岸悬崖顶部的景观。刘京建用他们独特的叙事方法设计了一座符合地方诗意的房子。

Ness Point has been designed as if it had grown out of the land in which it is embedded. The bio-diverse green roof slopes downward into the land at the rear, retaining rainwater and harbouring local wildlife, merging the house, over time, into the landscape of the coastal cliff top. Tonkin Liu have used their unique storytelling methodology to design a house that fulfils the poetry of place.
