架构师提供的文本描述。犀牛屋，位于奥兰庄园，一个茶园和咖啡种植园。该庄园是一个“道路财产的尽头”，毗邻林地和令人叹为观止的景观。该庄园有一座现有的平房，需要翻新，该简讯要求在这135英亩的庄园上再建造8座平房，然后作为农场住宿出租。在这九座建筑物中，有三座已经实现。

The estate is an “end of the road property”, bordering forest lands and commanding spectacular views. The estate had an existing bungalow which needed renovation and the brief called for an additional 8 bungalows to be built on this 135 acre estate which would then be rented out as farm stays. Out of these nine buildings, three have been realized.

在随后与客户进行的讨论中，我们建议将这些平房放置在广阔的房产之上，而不是紧密结合的开发项目上。

In subsequent discussions with the client, we suggested that these bungalows be located over the expanse of the property rather than a close knit development.

这样做的目的是为客人提供隐私，并为回来的客人提供新的、多样的体验。该屋苑内已有可行驶的道路和可用的行人路，因此，这些道路可方便地到达不同的地点。因此，建筑工地的选择是根据景观，方便的道路或行人路，以及地形。

The idea was to provide privacy to the guests and a new and varied experience to a returning guest. The estate already had motor-able roads and usable footpaths within and therefore these were used to reach the different locations with ease. Thus the building sites were chosen based on the views, easy access to a road or footpath, and terrain.

霍恩比尔家坐落在一个古老的干燥场上，坐落在瀑布的边缘。这座房子打开了这座瀑布的视野，这是一个山谷，背景是一层层的山脉，天空的不同色调，茶园的绿色，因此，从不同的角度，把每一种观点从不同的角度整合在一起。所有的房间都能看到这些特色之一，同时也能看到其他房间。

The Hornbill house is located on an old drying yard sitting on the edge of a water fall. The house opens onto the views of this water fall, a valley with a backdrop of layers of mountains in different hues of blue of the sky, and green of the tea gardens, thereby integrating each of these views strategically from a different direction from within the house. All the rooms have predominant view of one of these features, while having a glimpse of the rest.

墙是复合的，外面是石头，里面是泥砖。外部石墙与建筑物所在的岩石面相结合，因而根植于周围环境，而内泥墙则提供了温暖和庇护的感觉。这座别墅醒目的屋顶唤起了一种飞翔的感觉，当你从建筑物里眺望山谷和山丘时，就会感觉到这种感觉。

The walls are composite, of stone on the outside and mud bricks on the inside. The exterior stone walls blends with the rock face near to which the building is located and hence rooted to it's surroundings whereas the inner mud walls provide a feel of warmth and shelter. The striking roof of the villa invokes a sense of flight that one feels while gazing at the views of the valley and hills from within the building.
