架构师提供的文本描述。该遗址由一座已有100多年历史的废弃铁匠锻造和位于繁忙乡村道路边缘的一座附属铁匠小屋的废墟组成；然而，它也得益于安特里姆北部海岸的一些最好的沿海和乡村景观。该遗址位于一片农田上的杰出自然美景区域，一直延伸到邓卢斯城堡遗址的入口处，从多尼格尔到苏格兰的全景景致源源不断。这是唯一的结构在海边的道路在这个位置。由于其突出的位置和自然美景，当地规划局拒绝了以前开发该网站的尝试。

Text description provided by the architects. The site consisted of a 100 plus year old derelict blacksmiths forge and the crumbling ruins of an attached blacksmiths cottage sitting on the edge of a busy country road; however, it also benefits from some of the best coastal and rural views on the North Antrim Coast. The site is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on agricultural land running down to the entrance of the Dunluce Castle site and has uninterrupted panoramic views from Donegal to Scotland. It is the only structure on the sea side of the road in this location. Due to its prominent location and Natural Beauty the local Planning Authority had refused the previous attempts to develop the site.

2020年建筑师参与了这个项目，当时高级建筑师MichaelHowe和他的合作伙伴MicheleLong买下了这个潜在的建筑，希望能建造一个家庭住宅。由于场地的突出性质、独特的景观和突出的自然美景，我们知道设计必须成为乡村设计的典范。在过去的5年中，北爱尔兰建筑找到了一个自信的现代声音，并开始在英国的国内建筑设计中处于领先地位，这一事实得到了以下事实的支持：在被选为“曼塞尔奖”的20座房屋中，有4座来自这个国家。我们想利用这个项目来推进这个新发现的建筑信心，创造出一座现代的建筑，但它只存在于爱尔兰以外的任何地方。

2020 Architects became involved in the project when Senior Architect Michael Howe and his Partner Michele Long bought the potential site with the hope of creating a family home. Due to the prominent nature of the site, the unique views and the area of outstanding natural beauty we knew that the design had to be an exemplar of rural design. Over the last 5 years Northern Ireland Architecture has found a confident modern voice and have begun to lead the way in domestic architectural design in the UK, supported by the fact that 4 of the 20 houses chosen for the ‘Manser Award’ were from this country. We wanted to use this project to progress this new found Architectural confidence, producing a building which was unashamedly modern but one which couldn’t exist anywhere but Ireland.

这项设计是根据该幅土地的限制而产生的，该幅土地经及早谘询后，已与规划署商讨。概念是保护旧的锻造和重建原来的住所废墟，创造了一个视觉屏障，为现代高玻璃弯曲屋顶，居住街区，坐在后面。这两个街区只能看到一道山墙；这两个山墙形成了强大的基本形状，可以在整个爱尔兰农村的农业建筑中看到。2020年建筑师和规划师希望保留尽可能多的原始造型厂，以保留以爱尔兰方言为基础的设计特色。延伸部分的弯曲屋顶元素解决了两层楼的需要，但仍然低于原锻炉的屋顶。这两个强大的形式被一个平坦的屋顶部分种植为野花草甸。由于场地的倾斜性，当你沿着道路从西向东行驶时，建筑物的高度会增加，这是我们想要利用的一个原始特征，以增强内部设计的戏剧性。

The design was born out of the restrictions of the site negotiated with the Planning Department through early consultation. The concept was conservation of the old forge and the rebuilding the ruins of the original dwelling creating a visual barrier for a modern highly glazed curved roof living accommodation block to sit behind. These two blocks are only visible together gable on; the two gables create strong basic shapes that are can be seen in the agricultural buildings throughout the Irish Countryside. 2020 Architects and the planners wanted to retain as much of the original forge as possible, conserving the character which would help to ground the design in the Irish vernacular. The curved roofed element of the extension was a solution to the need for two storeys while still being lower than the roof of the original forge. The two strong forms are divided by a flat roofed section planted as a wild flower meadow. Due to the sloping nature of the site the building increases in height as you drive along the road from west to east, this is an original feature which we wanted to use to enhance the drama of design internally.

建成的房子从游客到达现场的那一刻起就创造了一次有指导的旅程；它慢慢地展开，带领游客穿过不同的场景。这座住宅是从西面山墙下靠近的，分割部分的平顶在眼水平，而这两种强烈的形式构成了对野花的长期观察，朝向草地和海洋之外，这一观点和阶梯路径引导你走到两种挤压形式之间的非常人性化的前门。打开门时，一堵16米长的天然未油漆石墙将你的目光吸引到房子的深处，这面厚达500毫米的石墙是用原址的石头部分重建的，并利用了传统的无水泥石灰砂浆的石砌技术。这堵墙是房子的一块“触碰石”；除了一间房间外，还可以看到它，并不断地将现代房屋与遗址的历史联系在一起。当你沿着一条由野花屋顶所创造的走廊走时，墙的规模就会增加，在这两种强烈竞争的建筑形式之间都是如此。这两个空间的紧张建立了大部分的戏剧性的房子，弯曲的墙的现代延伸，推动了一个巨大的石头元素的重量。石墙是尽可能少的穿孔，以形成开口的卧室和公用空间以外。一条穿过弯曲墙的缝隙立刻给人一种短暂的视野，可以看到远处的生活空间。房子在7个不同的层次上，确保它谨慎地整合到起伏的田野之外，其中三个层通过入口和居住空间之间。

The completed house creates a guided journey from the moment a visitor arrives on site; it unfurls slowly leading the visitor through differing scenes. The dwelling is approached from the lower western gable where the flat roof of the dividing section is at eye level and the two strong forms frame a long view over the wild flowers towards the grassed field and sea beyond, this view and stepped path guides yours approach to a very human scale front door between the two extruded forms. On opening the door a 16m long wall of natural unpainted stone pulls your eye into the depth of the house, this 500mm thick stone wall was partially rebuilt using the original stone from the site and utilising traditional stone masonry skills of cement free lime mortar. The wall is a ‘touch stone’ for the house; it can be viewed from all but one room and continually ties the modern house back to the history of the site. The wall increases in scale as you walk down a corridor created by the wild flower roof above and between the two strong competing forms of the building. The tension of these two spaces sets up much of the drama of the house, the curving wall of the modern extension pushing against the heft of a massive stone element. The stone wall is puncture as little as possible to form openings to bedrooms and utility spaces beyond. A gap through the curved wall immediately gives a fleeting view of the living spaces beyond. The house is on 7 different levels ensuring that it integrates discreetly into the undulating fields beyond, three of these levels are passed through between the entrance and the living space.
