架构师提供的文本描述。这个项目坐落在孟买山脉南边的低坡上，俯瞰着万加马里诺湿地，它是新西兰的缩影，它是一个年轻家庭的缩影，他们在波克诺地区有着悠久的历史渊源，在这个小小的农村社区长大后，他们就产生了一种地域性的感觉。

Text description provided by the architects. Nestled on the lower southern slopes of the Bombay ranges and overlooking the Whangamarino Wetlands, this is a project that was to epitomize New Zealand living for a young family who have historic roots in the Pokeno region and a sense of place that comes from growing up in this small rural community.

在南边和东边的怀卡托乡村的全景和经常严酷的西南风的暴露，该网站提供了一个有趣的和经常相互冲突的功能挑战来占领。

With panoramic views of the Waikato countryside to the south and east and very exposed to the often harsh, south-westerly winds, the site provided an interesting and often conflicting functional challenge to occupy.

建筑物的低倾斜屋顶形式遵循土地的地形，表现出一个低姿态的偏转和防止强风加速离开谷底。这个简单的屋顶延伸到一个伸长的平面图，与土地轮廓平行，向北提供遮蔽的庭院和阳台，并向东北延伸一个强大的轴线，为一个茂盛的本土灌木保护区提供前景。

The low-slung roof form of the building follows the topography of the land, presenting a low profile that deflects and protects against the strong winds that accelerate off the valley floor. This simple roof extends over an elongated plan that stretches parallel to the land contour providing sheltered courtyards and verandahs to the north and extending a strong axis to the north-east providing prospect towards a lush native bush reserve.

这座建筑由两个拉长的棚屋状的亭台组成，定义了私人区域的起居区，并有一个内部花园庭院将两者连接在一起。到达和进入是由石墙引导通过一个门厅，位于南端的较低的展馆。

The building comprises two elongated shed-like pavilions, defining the living areas from the private areas with an internal garden courtyard linking the two. Arrival and entry is guided by stone-clad walls through a foyer located towards the southern end of the lower pavilion.

门厅将一个家庭办公室、车库和存储区分隔到左侧，从主要起居空间向右，经过一个飞地客厅，再经过一个开放式厨房、餐厅和休息区，与游泳池、阳台和庭院直接相连。沿着整个东南墙的丝带窗户可以看到科洛曼德尔山脉的全景景观。

The foyer separates a home office and garage and storage areas to the left, from the main living spaces to the right, past an enclave living room to an open plan kitchen, dining and sitting area with direct connections to the pool, verandah and courtyard. Ribbon windows along the entire south-eastern wall allow panoramic landscape views to the Coromandel ranges. 

从主入口门厅的正前方，石墙让位给一个内部庭院，一个连接空间，有宽阔的台阶到上展馆，里面有卧室、服务区和体育馆。

Directly ahead from the main entry foyer, the stone wall gives way to an internal courtyard, a link space with broad steps to the upper pavilion, housing the bedrooms, service areas and gymnasium.

该网站要求使用耐久材料的调色板-涂层钢，锌，石头和混凝土砖石和雪松风化板在他们的“生”状态，以融入自然景观。

The site demanded the use of a palette of durable materials - coated steel, zinc, stone and concrete masonry and cedar weatherboards used in their “raw” state to blend with the natural landscape.
