架构师提供的文本描述。这些客户是一对说话温和的纳瓦霍夫妇，他们要求提供一个家庭聚会的住所，同时提供一个私人的静修场所。他们对自己的环境有着深刻的了解，并且已经为家庭聚会在财产上建造了一个小树荫结构。来自科罗拉多丹佛大学的学生与犹他州大学的DesignBuildBLUFF合作，设计并建造了一个面积800平方英尺的普通住宅。

Text description provided by the architects. The clients, a soft-spoken Navajo couple, requested a home that would allow for family gatherings while simultaneously providing a private place of retreat. They had an intimate understanding of their environment and had already constructed a small shade structure on the property for family gatherings. Students from the University of Colorado Denver worked in collaboration with DesignBuildBLUFF at the University of Utah to design and build a modest 800 square foot home.

这座只需25，000美元建造的单瓣雪松覆盖的房子，是用雪松和可回收的铝制雨幕缝成的，设计成层次分明的阴影和透明度。铝制护套包裹着建筑物，从正面折叠出来，与雪松屏幕相交，形成保护玻璃和主入口免受南方阳光直射的孔。雪松，保持在正面，提供了一个深度，创造了一种微妙的活力的光和阴影。垂直屏幕的间隔是为了减少正面的直接热量，帮助保持家庭在夏天的凉爽。墙壁和屋顶是用结构绝缘板建造的，这超出了传统的绝缘标准。

Constructed for $25,000 this single pitched cedar clad house is stitched into the landscape with a cedar and recycled aluminum rain screen designed to layer shadows and transparency. The aluminum sheathing wraps the building, folding out from the facade and intersecting the cedar screen to create apertures that protect the glazing, and the main entry, from direct southern sun. The cedar, held off of the facade, provides a depth that creates a subtle dynamism of light and shadow. The vertical screen is spaced to reduce direct heat gain of the façade helping to keep the home cool in the summer. The walls and roof are constructed with structural insulated panels that exceed traditional insulation standards.

两本私人的书(卧室和浴室)裹着雪松，定义了房子的内部。门已集成到包层，以隐藏他们的位置，进一步强调隐私。在走廊的尽头，墙上建了一张角落的桌子。作为雪松体积的延续，挤压提供了一个工作表面，同时遮住了夏季阳光下的窗户。深度捕捉到南方的观点回到原来的阴影结构，主要灵感之一的设计。

Two private volumes (the bedroom and bathroom) clad in cedar, define the interior of the home. Doors have been integrated into the cladding to conceal their location further emphasizing privacy. At the end of the hallway a nook desk is built into the wall. A continuation of the cedar volume, the extrusion provides a work surface while shading the window from the summer sun. The depth captures the southern view back to the original shade structure, one of the main inspirations for the design.

 Floor Plan

房子的公共区域有一个开放的平面图，可以过渡到露台。露台被东方和西部的雪松雨幕所包围，但北面可以看到蓝山的景色。雨幕提供保护免受阳光和风，同时提供过滤光和动画阴影。

The more public area of the home has an open floor plan that transitions out to the patio. The patio is enclosed by the cedar rain screen on the east and west but opens north to a view of the Blue Mountains. The rain screen offers protection from the sun and wind while providing filtered light and animated shadows.
