架构师提供的文本描述。这栋房子坐落在比勒陀利亚最古老的高尔夫球场之一，高尔夫球场已经被广泛开发。我们的客户在购买地产中最后一块开放的地块时特别开放，这是一块非常坚硬的土地，没有多少人会看到机会。

Text description provided by the architects. The House is situated in one of Pretoria's oldest Golf Estates, which has already been extensively developed. Our client was particularly open-minded in buying one of the last open plots in the estate, an extremely rocky piece of ground not many would see opportunity in.

该遗址由两个岩石露头组成，慷慨地点缀着当地的植物区系，在不破坏环境的情况下，或在建立传统结构的情况下，对建筑物的位置构成了严重的挑战。

The site is defined by two rocky outcrops, generously dotted with indigenous flora, posing serious challenges in situating the building without damaging the environment or incurring serious costs in erecting a conventional structure.

从一开始，客户的简报就很清楚了，我们将提供4间卧室(套房)、一间书房、一个开放式的客厅、餐厅、厨房以及给定的辅助功能。扭转是结构主要是混凝土。

From the onset the client’s brief was clear, we were to provide for 4 bedrooms (en-suite), a study, an open plan living area, dining room, kitchen as well as the given ancillary functions. The twist was the structure was to be predominantly concrete.

从一开始，人们就清楚地看到，在该遗址上发现的自然环境应尽可能少地受到干扰，只应使用这两个岩石露头作为该结构的基础。钢制调色板，玻璃

From inception it was clear that the natural environment found on the site should be disturbed as little as possible, only using the two rocky outcrops as the footings for the structure. A palette of Steel, Glass & Concrete was chosen, attempting to keep the materials as true to their rawest forms as possible. The building spans between the outcrops, positioned carefully between a collection of prominent Appelblaar & Karee Trees. The importance of this natural context is amplified through its close proximity as one moves through the house.

保持轻触地球的概念，只有两个入口进入房子，两套楼梯似乎漂浮在自然的地面水平之上。

Maintaining the concept of touching the earth lightly, there are only two access points into the house, 2 sets of stairs that seemingly float above the natural ground level.

住宅还配备了太阳能热水系统，以及综合智能控制，通过太阳能热水循环结构，减少了住宅对市政用电的需求。同样，在整个过程中采用双层玻璃，减少了主动冷却的需要。

The Residence is also equipped with a Solar Hot Water System, as well as integrated Intelligent Controls, circulating Solar Heated Water through the structure, reducing the house’s need for Municipal electricity. Similarly, Double glazing was employed throughout, reducing the need for active cooling & heating.

总之，该设计将南非高地景观的浪漫与当代混凝土结合起来。

In conclusion, the design marries the romance of South Africa’s Highveld Landscape with the contemporary concrete & glass designed house, creating an interesting contrast & relationship between the amenities of contemporary living while reducing the impact thereof.
