架构师提供的文本描述。富兰克林山脉延伸到埃尔帕索的北端，就像一个充满岩石的荒野的半岛，延伸到城市的景观，海拔2500英尺的格兰德河流域。这个家园坐落在城市上方800英尺的弗兰克林山脚下，坐落在一个小峡谷之上，南面可以看到埃尔帕索市中心和华雷斯市区的通畅景色。

Text description provided by the architects. The Franklin Mountains extend into the north end of El Paso like a peninsula of rocky wilderness into the urban landscape of the city, rising 2500 feet above the Rio Grande river valley. The home site is set in the foothills of the Franklins 800 feet above the city perched just above a small canyon with unobstructed views of downtown El Paso and Juarez to the south.

当原始和崎岖的乡土景观从山坡上下来，并满足了房子的群众，土地开始感觉更受控制和栽培。这个陡峭的地方成了一系列的梯田，抓住并减缓了这里的水流和生命的流动。这座山边的绿洲富含本地的肉质和仙人掌，五颜六色的草本植物和芳香的草本植物。一个小规模的可持续生态系统，使一个“硬”的地方变成了他们在山坡上的避难所。

As the raw and rugged native landscape comes down the slope and meets the masses of the house the land starts to feel more controlled and cultivated. The steep site becomes a series of terraces that catch and slows the flow of water and the flow of life here. This mountain side oasis becomes enriched with native succulents and cacti, colorful grasses and aromatic herbs. A sustainable ecosystem on a small scale for a family that has turned a “hard” site into their sanctuary on the hillside.

斜坡的严重程度使三层住宅与每一层的外部保持着直接的联系。功利空间位于第一层，第二层是生活、厨房和就餐的娱乐功能。第三层的私人卧室和家庭游玩区越多，东边的山峰就会把第一缕阳光推迟到很晚的时候。南边的斜坡很快就会掉进一个很深的阿罗约山里，清晨和下午，金鹰和红尾鹰乘着热流进入上面的峡谷寻找下一顿饭。孩子们常常醒来，看见鹿和兔子在南边新种的植物群里吃东西，有时会发现当地有一只环尾猫的踪迹。每天晚上，当太阳开始下降到地平线以下时，天空就会着火，室外起居室成为观看天空从红色变成橙色到深蓝色的最佳场所，因为华雷斯的城市灯光开始亮起，照亮了南方的山谷。

The severity of the slope allows the three story home to maintain a direct connection to the exterior at each level.  The utilitarian spaces are on the first level with the entertaining functions of the living, kitchen, and dining on the second, and the more private bedroom and family play areas on the third level.  The mountain peaks to the east delay the first rays of sun until very late in the morning.  To the south the slope drops off quickly into a deep arroyo where, in the early mornings and late afternoons golden eagles and red tailed hawks ride the thermal currents up into the canyons above in search of their next meal.  Often the kids wake up to see deer and rabbits grazing at the newly planted flora along the south patio, sometimes finding evidence of the local ring-tailed cat.  Each night as the sun begins to dip below the horizon the sky catches fire and the outdoor living room becomes the best place to watch the sky fade from red to orange to deep indigo as the city lights of Juarez come on and illuminate the valley to the south.

在遗址顶部附近有一个废弃的石英矿。散布在该遗址东部的棱角石英晶体-美丽，在风化的灰色石头和莱胡吉拉中间的异物-成为了家庭聚集的灵感。传统的白色灰泥卷容纳了家庭的卧室和私人区域，并在当地玄武岩灰色石头中呈现的立体上平衡，使用城镇四周可见的瓦砾墙风格，与周围环境非常相配，也是如此。从远处看，较低的楼层几乎消失了，白色的卧室似乎漂浮在景观中。(鼓掌)

Near the top of the site there is an abandoned quartz mine.  The angular quartz crystals that scatter the eastern part of the site – beautiful, foreign objects among the weathered grey stones and lechuguilla - became an inspiration for the massing of the home.  A traditional white lime stucco volume houses the bedrooms and private area of the family and balances on a stereotomic mass rendered in local basalt grey stone using the rubble wall style visible all around town that closely matches the surrounding environment and is so of the place that from a distance the lower floors nearly disappear and the white bedroom mass appears to float in the landscape.

里面和外面的材料是受埃尔帕索民间工艺的启发或直接相关的，如石砌石、平整的灰泥、与铁路有关的钢制品以及与城市牛仔历史有关的皮革制品。在直接与建筑物接合的时刻，门把手和柜子拉手都是用黑色钢制成的，配上少量皮革，以软化和加热冷边。自然的，诚实的，有些传统的材料是用稍微非传统的方式使用，清楚地传达了当地工艺的一种精致。

Materials inside and out are inspired by or directly related to the vernacular craft of El Paso; stone masonry, smooth troweled stucco, steel work related to the railroad, and leather goods related to the cowboy history of the city. At the moments where one directly engages the building the door handles and cabinet pulls are fashioned in black steel with a small offering of leather to soften and warm the cold edges. Natural, honest, somewhat conventional materials are used in slightly unconventional ways to clearly convey a refinement of the vernacular craft.
