架构师提供的文本描述。坐落在戏剧性的60英尺高的海岸岸边的低坡上，周围环绕着数英里未开发的科德角国家海滨海滩和灌木丛松林，这是一座温暖、现代的海滨别墅，不仅仅是一个不间断的海景和海风的地方。我们的客户梦想着一所房子，它既能像全年的家庭“营地”一样运转良好，又能成为与同事合作的“思考之所”。

Text description provided by the architects. Sited gently on the lower slope of a dramatic sixty foot high coastal bank and surrounded by miles of undeveloped Cape Cod National Seashore beaches and scrub pines is a warm, modern beach house that is more than just a place to enjoy uninterrupted ocean views and sea breezes. Our clients dreamed of a house that would work equally well as both a year-round family “camp” and also as a “thinking retreat” for collaborating with their colleagues.

从设计一开始，它就对我们和我们的客户-以及威尔斯弗莱镇保护委员会和国家海滨代表-来说至关重要，那就是房子能无缝地融入脆弱的场地。我们的团队非常谨慎地做出了反应，设计了房子的曲线，并在自然的地形下轻轻地移动，还设想了新的本土和抗旱的景观，紧靠在房子后面，就好像两个人一直在一起一样。

From the beginning of design it was critically important to us and to our clients – as well as the Town of Wellfleet Conservation Commission and National Seashore representatives – that the house fit into its fragile site seamlessly. Our team responded with great care by designing the house to curve and shift softly with the natural topography and also by envisioning the new native and drought resistant landscaping growing back tight to the house as if both had always been there together.

 Floor Plan

主楼被认为是重叠的、悬臂的平面和体积的拼贴，最终形成一个由不对称的铜屋顶平面定义的大型生活/用餐空间。进入这所房子的道路是一条长长的斜坡，经过几年后将是一片土生土长的松树和灌木丛，然后是弯曲的雪松板状飞机。房子的内陆一侧被塞进了它那变幻莫测的沙质景观中，由漂浮在地面上的雪松瓦状飞机组成，里面有卧室、浴室和厨房，还有更低体积的水平舌和沟槽雪松板，环绕着卧室和一个供十几岁的儿子们聚集的空间。在科德贝角一侧，这座房子透过玻璃墙向无尽的水景和天堂般的海风敞开。在房子的中间，就在前门里面。这是一个建筑上的“洞”，一年中的大部分时间，它都能让房子通过地板到天花板的遮阳窗自然地呼吸和冷却，它还能从较低层的阴凉微风中看到天空。在洞的一面墙上有一个格子，种植着常绿和季节性芳香的开花藤蔓。

The main house is conceived of as a collage of overlapping, cantilevered planes and volumes that culminate in a large living / dining space defined by an asymmetrically arcing copper roof plane. Entry to the house is by way of a long ramp through what will in a few years be a thicket of native pines and bushes, then through curving cedar shingled planes.  The inland side of the house is tucked into its shifting, sandy landscape and is comprised of cedar shingled planes that float above the ground and contain bedrooms, bathrooms, and the kitchen, and lower volumes of horizontal tongue and groove cedar boards that enclose bedrooms and a gathering space for teenage sons.  On the Cape Cod Bay side, the house opens up through walls of glass to endless water views and heavenly sea breezes.  In the middle of the house, just inside the front door, is an architectural “hole” that allows the house to breathe and cool itself naturally most of the year through its floor to ceiling awning windows, and which also provides views of the sky from a shady breezeway on the lower level. Along one wall of the hole is a trellis planted with evergreen and seasonally aromatic flowering vines.

与主屋隔着一个门廊和毗连的甲板，是一个独立的艺术/瑜伽/思维工作室，似乎漂浮在离地面14英尺的地方。里面是一个单独的大阁楼空间和一个完整的浴室，下面是一个露天的夏季艺术工作室和船/海滩玩具仓库，后面是木板墙和匹配的谷仓门。

Separated from the main house by a screen porch and contiguous deck, is a separate art / yoga / thinking studio that seemingly floats fourteen feet above the ground. Inside is a single large loft space as well as a full bath, and below is an open-air summer art studio and boat / beach toy storage, behind walls of wood slats and matching barn doors.

 Floor Plan

除了房屋的“营地”角色外，还有遍布现场的隐蔽建筑，包括一个带整体热水浴缸的甲板、海滩小径附近的室外淋浴、父母卧室和热水浴缸附近的室外淋浴、为帐篷搭建的远程甲板、一个带自来水的小山顶棚和一台不间断工作的浓缩咖啡机。一个半个篮球场挖进了小山，徒步旅行小径，橡树树林里的吊床，沙质的休息区里有两个独立的火坑，还有一个在凸起的主甲板下举行大型聚会的阴凉的就餐区。

Adding to the house’s “camp” persona are hidden structures sprinkled throughout the site, including a deck with an integral hot tub, outdoor showers both near the beach path and also near the parents’ bedroom and hot tub, a remote deck set up for tents, a small hill-top shed with running water and an espresso machine for uninterrupted working, a half basketball court dug into the hill, hiking trails, hammocks in a gnarled oak grove, two separate fire pits set in sandy sitting areas, and a shady dining area for large gatherings below the raised main deck.

该房屋旨在实现净零的基础上，每年与10千瓦的电网捆绑屋顶太阳能光伏阵列，在主楼和工作室，以及超高效率的空气换热和能量回收通风。我们的客户没有追求LEED认证，但房子的设计考虑到LEED认证。

The house is designed to achieve net zero status on an annualized basis with a 10 kW grid-tied rooftop solar photovoltaic array on both the main house and the studio, along with super high efficiency air to air heat exchangers and energy recovery ventilators. Our clients did not pursue LEED certification but the house was designed with LEED certification in mind.
