架构师提供的文本描述。坐落在海滩之上的树线边缘，这个度假屋允许戏剧性的俄勒冈州海岸成为舞台中心。这一设计保持了从遮蔽森林到开阔海岸线的视线，只有极小的玻璃和钢铁结构。在这两层透明的盒子上方，铜覆盖的绿色屋顶是由天然蕨类植物和草木组成的高架板。

Text description provided by the architects. Perched above the beach at the edge of the tree line, this vacation home allows the dramatic Oregon Coast to take center stage. The design maintains sightlines from the sheltered forest to the open coastline with a minimal structure of glass and steel.  Atop the two-story, transparent box, the copper-clad green roof is an elevated slab of native ferns and grasses.

只有上层可以从森林覆盖的车道上看到，可以通过T台和超大的玻璃枢轴门进入，上层有主要的起居室-客厅、厨房、餐厅-并提供全方位的视野。橱柜被拉到空间的中心，以使外墙免受阻碍。玄武岩地板与幕墙之间的一个小间隙，会在周边产生“无限”效应。

Only the upper floor is visible from the forested driveway.  Accessible via a catwalk and oversized glass pivot door, the upper level contains the main living spaces – living room, kitchen, dining room – and offers views in every direction.  Cabinetry is pulled to the center of the space to free the exterior walls from obstruction.  A small gap between the basalt flooring and the curtain wall creates an “infinity” effect along the perimeter.

一个遮蔽的甲板被冲进西面，保护不受风的影响，并通过宽的滑动门连接到起居空间。

A sheltered deck is punched into the west façade, protected from the wind and connected to the living spaces by wide sliding doors. 

从海滩上看，房子的全部高度都暴露了出来，尽管它位于悬崖上，东侧的斜坡上增加了一种较低层的亲密感。楼下受保护的东侧的钢柱上有一个定制的桌子悬臂。家庭房和两间卧室直接通往露台和海滩通道。

From the beach, the full height of the house is exposed, although it’s placement on the bluff and the sloped site to the east adds a sense of intimacy to the lower level.  A custom desk cantilevers from the steel columns on the protected eastern side of the downstairs. The family room and two bedrooms open directly to the patio and beach access.

一个复杂的“家庭大脑”可以让主人通过iPad或每层的触摸屏远程控制房子的各个方面：灯光、窗帘、恒温器和音响系统。在需要的时候，可以在整个房子的各个区域放下机械化窗帘，以保证隐私或控制光线水平。热水，地板辐射热量和空调由地面源热泵提供.

A sophisticated “home brain” allows the owners to remotely control all aspects of the house via their ipad or touchscreens on each floor: lights, shades, thermostats and audio systems.  Mechanized curtains can be lowered in individual sections throughout the house as needed to allow for privacy or to control light levels.  Hot water, radiant floor heat and air-conditioning is provided from a ground source heat pump.

为了保持地板和厨房的均匀性，地板和厨房台面都是由同样深灰色的玄武岩制成的。墙壁、天花板和内置橱柜都是用白橡木制作的，带有热轧黑钢的口音。为了保持流动和一致性，床，书桌和橱柜都是定制的。一个整体的钢架支撑着漂浮的白色橡木楼梯。(鼓掌)

Finishes and furnishings were chosen for their textural quality and subtlety.  Floors and kitchen counters are made from the same dark grey basalt.  Walls, ceiling and built-in cabinetry were crafted from white oak with accents of hot-rolled blackened steel.  To maintain flow and consistency, beds, desk and cabinetry were custom made.  A single piece steel frame supports the floating white oak staircase.

尽管俄勒冈州海岸的天气变幻莫测，房子里还是充满了自然的光线。晚上，光线会保持在较低的水平，从而产生茧般的亲密效果。

Regardless of the unpredictable Oregon Coast weather, the house is filled with natural light.  At night, the light levels are kept low to create a cocoon-like, intimate effect.
