架构师提供的文本描述。尽管这是一个极其陡峭、几乎无法开发、树木繁茂的场所，但“俯瞰宾馆”从战略上创造了一套全新的完全可及的室内/室外住宅单元，让一位年迈的家庭成员能够在家中与外界保持密切联系。

Text description provided by the architects. Despite an extremely steep, almost undevelopable, wooded site, the Overlook Guest House strategically creates a new fully accessible indoor/outdoor dwelling unit that allows an aging family member to remain close by and at home.

设计一个完全无障碍的新家，在一个陡峭和树木茂密的山坡上，一个行动能力受损的老婆婆需要一个高效率和场地敏感的脚印，这两个标志都是良好的可持续设计。

Designing a fully accessible new home for a mobility-impaired aging in-law on a steep and wooded hillside site requires a highly efficient and site sensitive footprint, already both hallmarks of good sustainable design.

这套两居室，面积775平方英尺的住宅采用低冲击钻孔桥墩基础系统，在这个陡峭的场地上巧妙地安放结构，平衡切口和填充，同时最大限度地利用景观和广阔的感觉。

This 2-bedroom, 775 sq ft home employs a low-impact drilled pier foundation system to perch the structure delicately on this steep site; balancing cut and fill while maximizing views and an expansive feel.

随着许多小的室内空间被分配给可达性和移动性，将外部空间作为住宅功能部分的一部分，这就成为了设计的当务之急。

With much of the small interior spaces being allocated to accessibility and movement, it becomes a design imperative to capture exterior space as part of the functional portion of the home.

室内环境和外部环境之间的无缝过渡被一个单一的楼板和头顶飞机放大，它将住宅的机翼和相反的车库结合在一起。由此产生的覆盖面积增加了使用最低限度建筑资源的可用楼面面积。

A seamless transition between interior and exterior environment is amplified by a single floor slab and overhead plane that unite the residential wing and the opposing garage of the home. The resulting covered area increases the usable floor area using a minimum of building resources.

一个突出的屋顶Oculus在这个覆盖的“庭院”空间提供了一个动态的内部/外部空间，直接毗邻的室内生活空间，以及促进冷却气流，通过经常严酷的微气候现场。

A prominent roof oculus within this covered “courtyard” space provides for a dynamic interior / exterior space directly adjacent to indoor living space as well as promotes a cooling air flow through the often harsh micro-climate of the site.
