洛杉矶公馆打破了附近所有房屋的常规，向后退了一段相当远的距离，在树冠下留下了一大片空地，这是一种非常受欢迎的姿态。

Breaking with the norm established by all the houses in the vicinity, LA House recedes a considerable distance from the setback line, to yield a large open space below the tree canopies, a stark welcome gesture.

进入建筑群的主要入口进入一条开放的通道，这条通道沿着粗糙的石墙延伸，并将进入房屋的通道推迟了几米。一个玻璃盒子，里面有一间工作室，从大楼里突出出来。它悬停在一个大池塘上方，可以通过一系列的石板穿过，这些石板可以从水面上升起，直接进入房屋的公共区域。隐藏在石墙另一边的车库，迫使汽车侧停，以便使它们在房子的任何空间中都看不见。

The main entry into the complex proceeds to an open passageway that runs along a rough-hewn stone wall and postpones the access into the house an additional number of meters. A glazed box containing a studio protrudes from the building. It hovers above a large pond that can be crossed via a series of stone pavers that rise above the water and lead directly into the public areas of the house. The garage, concealed on the other side of the stone wall, compels cars to park sideways so as to render them invisible from any space in the house.

进入建筑物的顺序呈现出一系列的层次感，从倒退线以外的花园空间开始，沿着开放的走廊穿过池塘，穿过中央庭院，一直到主建筑后面的生活空间。

The entry sequence into the building presents a series of layers, starting with the garden space beyond the setback lines, following through the open corridor past the pond, and crossing through the central courtyard all the way to the living spaces at the back of the main building.

实施了一个中央庭院计划，在不损害隐私的情况下，将自然通风引入房屋的每一个空间。一楼庭院周围的走廊是由一系列可操作的窗户定义的，这些窗户允许厨房和客厅在天气允许的情况下流出到外部。

A central courtyard scheme was implemented to introduce natural ventilation into every space of the house without compromising privacy. The corridors around the courtyard on the ground floor are defined by a series of operable windows that allow the kitchen and living spaces  to bleed out into the exterior, when the weather allows it.

扩大了主导底层的渗透性主题，在第二层的生活区实施了类似的解决方案，以允许私人的、开放的空间。这就是小的，玻璃的中庭，通风主浴室和深凹阳台，给所有卧室提供宽敞的外部空间。

Expanding on the theme of permeability that dominates the ground floor, similar solutions were implemented throughout the living quarters on the second level, to allow for the private, open spaces. Such is the case with the small, glazed atrium that ventilates the master bathroom and the deeply recessed balconies that yield generous exterior areas to all bedrooms.

穿过草坪，越过底层的起居空间，一个游泳池和一个包含娱乐室的混凝土空间可以俯瞰酒店外的一个小峡谷。在这个体积之下，一条交错的小径缓缓下降，在一个明显的悬崖上通过地形的变化，向下延伸到一个较低的景观区域。

Crossing the lawn, beyond the living spaces on the ground floor, a pool and a concrete volume containing an entertainment room overlook a small ravine outside of the property. Below this volume a staggered pathway descends gently to negotiate the changes in topography on a pronounced cliff, leading down to a lower landscape area.

深灰色的钢，玻璃，木材，混凝土和石头构成了整个房子的大部分材料调色板，在皮革和不锈钢的口音的补充。主浴室得到了一种特殊的待遇，因为它几乎完全用白色大理石覆盖。

Dark gray steel, glass, wood, concrete and stone compose the greater part of the material palette throughout the house, wich is complemented by accents in leather and stainless steel. The master bathroom receives a special treatment as it is covered almost in its entirety with white marble.
