架构师提供的文本描述。胡桃住宅位于加利福尼亚州威尼斯，是一个海滨社区，以小面积(30‘宽x 120’宽)为特征，兼容并蓄的建筑组合和独特的个性融合。虽然这片土地的面积和一棵现有的树木限制了家庭的组织可能性，但与社区的联系、对隐私和安全的需要以及对自然照明的兴趣提供了无尽的可能性。

Text description provided by the architects. The Walnut Residence is located in Venice, California, a beachside community characterized by small lots (30’ wide x 120’ wide), an eclectic mix of architecture and a unique blend of personality. While the tight square footage of the lot and an existing tree constrained the organizational possibilities of the home, the connection to community, the need for privacy and security, and interest in natural lighting offered endless possibilities.

这座2700平方英尺的单一家庭住宅借鉴了现场和环境的灵感，参考了现场的一棵松树标本，并重新解释了作为施工过程一部分而移除的另外两棵树。松树的树干直径接近5英尺，树冠直径超过60英尺，因此它显然是该遗址(以及几乎整个街区)最主要的特征。因为搬家不是客户的选择，所以房子的一部分是围绕着树的位置组织起来的；靠近后面，几乎在中间。这个组织最大限度地利用了房子的宜居面积，同时尽量减少损坏树木的风险。在现实中，房子的计划是相当简单的，如果不加以处理，可能会类似于该地区的任意数量的灰泥盒。通过外部皮肤探索选择提供了一个动态的表现客户的品味和性格，以及雕塑的建筑品质。

The 2,700 square foot single family residence draws upon the site and context for inspiration by referencing a specimen pine on site and reinterpreting two other trees removed as part of the construction process. The trunk diameter of the pine is nearly five feet and the canopy over sixty feet across, so it clearly serves as the most dominant feature of the site (and nearly the entire block). Since removal was not an option for the clients, the parti of the house was organized around the tree’s location on site; near the back and virtually in the middle. This organization maximized the livable square footage of the house while minimizing the risk of damage to the tree. In reality, the plan of the house is quite simple and if left untreated could resemble any number of stucco boxes in the area. Exploring options through the exterior skin offered a dynamic expression of the client’s taste and character as well as the sculptural qualities of architecture.

密集的程序元素，如车库与相邻的储藏室和楼梯井聚集在房子的前面，支持一个更轻，更有机的混合卧室和浴室空间上方。这种类比在材料中重复了一遍。底层的灰泥和混凝土支持更轻的程序和材料，如木材，玻璃和穿孔的十层金属面板以上。一个拉长的酒吧，包括居住，餐饮和厨房空间，在一个开放的平面安排在较低的水平是由玻璃滑动门和天窗在三面。在空间上，这一区域代表了典型的檐篷下的开阔地带，也提供了一个独特的优势点，以查看松树的花边冠层。它被从树冠水平下降到地面的COR-10面板锚定在物业的边缘。

Dense program elements such as the garage with adjacent storage and the stairwell are clustered towards the front of the house and support a lighter, more organic mix of bedroom and bathroom spaces above. This analogy is repeated in the materials. Stucco and concrete on the lower level support lighter programs and materials such as wood, glass and perforated cor-ten metal panels above. An elongated bar containing living, dining and kitchen spaces in an open-plan arrangement on the lower level are surrounded by glass sliding doors and skylights on three sides. Spatially this area represents the open zone under typical canopies and also offers a unique vantage point to view the pine’s lacy canopy. It is anchored along the edge of the property by the cor-ten panels that descend from the canopy level to the ground.

 Floor Plan

因为卧室和浴室是唯一位于高层的项目，隐私是一个主要的问题。密集使用上面的COR-10屏幕可以优化北面和东面的自然光照，同时减少南部和西部的太阳增益。从头到尾，一个随机的，操纵的模式，不同的孔允许充分的看法，但模糊的看法。

Because bedrooms and bathrooms are the only program located on the upper level, privacy was a main concern. The dense use of the cor-ten screen above optimizes natural day lighting on the north and east facades while mitigating solar gain on the south and west. Throughout, a random, manipulated pattern of varying apertures allows ample views out but obscured views in.
