架构师提供的文本描述。这个地块的背景是一英亩土地上的更大的房子。从美学上讲，相邻的房子的建筑语言更多的是与投机性的开发商的趋势和风格相关的，而不是对场地、景观和其他机会的综合理解。因此，该项目需要制定一项战略，以剔除这一社区的直接背景，同时将重点放在北面的麦克道尔山脉和南部及西南部的山谷的远景上。该项目还寻求为后院和游泳池区创造一个受保护的庭院空间，作为与第二层相比，该住宅较低层的立足点。利用更远的视野。

Text description provided by the architects. The context for this site consists of larger homes on one-acre lots.  Aesthetically, the neighboring houses’ architectural language is more often than not, associated with speculative developer trends and styles, rather than an integrated understanding of the site, the views, and other opportunities.  As a result, the project required a strategy which would edit out the immediate context of this neighborhood while focusing on distant views of the McDowell Mountains to the north and the valley to the south and southwest.  The project also sought to create a protected courtyard space for the backyard and pool area as an immediate focus for the lower level of the house in contrast to the second level taking advantage of the more distant views.

这座房子呈现出一系列被沙子吹打的12-8-16墙，不锈钢和玻璃覆盖的砖墙在上面漂浮。砖墙是实心的，只有极小的开口，这样既能编辑社区的现有环境，又能确保隐私。在与入口处相关的特定地点，以及客人卧室的室外空间，砖石逐渐开放，允许光线和空气。一个单独的风化钢板覆盖的体积，南部的房子，车库，同时也提供了隐私的游泳池和后院，从附近的房子。

The house presents itself as a series of sand-blasted 12-8-16 masonry walls upon which a stainless steel and glass clad volume floats.  The masonry walls are solid with minimal openings in order to edit out the existing context of the neighborhood while also ensuring privacy.  In specific locations associated with the entry courtyard and the outdoor space for a guest bedroom, the masonry gradually opens up its coursing to allow for light and air.  A separate weathering steel plate clad volume to the south houses the garage while also providing privacy to the pool area and backyard from a neighboring house. 

 Floor Plan

进入住宅需要沿着一块完整的沙漠草场，并通过由两堵砖墙和上面的体积创建的门户。其中一处被引入花园空间，同时专注于麦克道尔山以北的景色。这个花园空间提供了一个休息的区域，以便在进入房子之前从精神上处理社区的周边环境。

Entering into the residence takes one along a monolithic field of desert grasses and through a portal created by two masonry walls and the volume above.  One is ushered into a garden space while being focused on the views north of the McDowell Mountains.  This garden space offers an area of repose in order to mentally dispose of the immediate context of the neighborhood before entering the house.

进入后，主要的居住空间被配置成一个不间断的空间。这些公共空间通过完全消失的滑动玻璃板，立即向游泳池和后院的生活区开放。入口花园作为生活空间体验的一部分，是通过尽可能明显地打开楼梯，同时保持对入口区域的定义而保持的。

Upon entering, the main living space is configured as one uninterrupted volume of space.  These public spaces open immediately to the pool and backyard living areas by means of sliding glass panels that fully disappear.  The entry garden is maintained as part of the living space’s experience by the stair being as visibly open as possible while maintaining definition to the entry area.

两堵砖墙之间相邻的一系列空间，容纳了两间客房，每间客房都有各自独特的场地体验。一间专注于邻近的后院区域，另一间则专注于北面更远的视野。一个更大的浴室空间将这两间卧室隔开，而厕所、步入式淋浴和浴缸配置也保持了对北方的专注。

An adjacent series of spaces in between two masonry walls house two guest bedrooms each having their own distinctive experiences of the site.  One is focused on the immediate backyard area while the other is focused on the more distant view to the north.  One larger bathroom space separates these two bedrooms while the water closet, walk in shower and bath configuration also maintains a focused view to the north. 

 Floor Plan

主人套房和办公室就在上面的空间里。北面的麦克道尔山脉的全景图在每一个第二层空间都提供。主卧室，穿衣，。浴室空间配置为一个大套房，以提供开放的关系，同时强调北面景观的全景质量。位于南侧和西侧的屋顶突出，减轻了太阳热量的增加，同时也提供了一个露台空间，俯瞰庭院空间。

The master suite and office are located in the volume above.  A panoramic view of the McDowell Mountains to the north is offered in each of these second level spaces.  The master bedroom, dressing, and bathroom spaces are configured as one large suite in order to provide an open relationship while emphasizing the panoramic quality of the view to the north.  The roof overhangs located on the south and west sides mitigate the solar heat gain while also providing a patio space overlooking the courtyard space.

楼上的卷材是用11英寸宽的不锈钢板直接从线圈上切割而成，还有1“绝缘玻璃板，带有银色的高性能热涂层。这一卷的包层策略是创造一个信封，它能最大限度地吸收环境，并允许一整天对颜色和光洁度有不同的感觉。

The upstairs volume is clad in 11 gage 4’ wide stainless steel plate cut to length directly from the coil, and 1” insulated glass panels with a silver colored high performance thermal coating.  The strategy of the cladding for this volume was to create an envelope that would best absorb the environment and allow for a varying perception of color and finish throughout the day.
