架构师提供的文本描述。这座建在肯特郡霍克赫斯特附近的新乡村住宅，希望既能提供传统的乡村触觉，又能提供现代的现代生活。在获得最终批准之前，该设计必须满足多项严格的规划要求。议会要求该建筑的美学更接近当地传统的木材和砖房。经过漫长的迭代过程，设计演变成了对白话的适当重新诠释。

Text description provided by the architects. This new build country house near Hawkhurst, in Kent, hopes to provide the best of both traditional rural tactility and modern contemporary living. The design had to fulfill a number of stringent planning requirements before receiving final approval, with the council requiring the building’s aesthetic to more closely resemble the traditional timber and brick houses of the locality. After a long iterative process, the design evolved into a suitable reinterpretation of the vernacular.

大的玻璃屏幕允许光淹没内部空间，同时框架周围的林地令人震惊的看法。紫色的砖和风化的天然落叶松，随着时间的推移，将融入周围的色调。这些粗糙的包层材料被窗户和铝边的清洁线条所抵消。自定义设计木材通风口成功地保持正面没有不必要的视觉杂乱。

Large glazed screens allow light to flood the interior spaces while framing the astounding views of the surrounding woodlands. The purple-tinted brick and weathering natural larch will, in time, blend into the surrounding tones. These rough cladding materials are offset by the clean lines of the windows and aluminium trims. Custom designed timber vents succeed in keeping the facade free of unnecessary visual clutter.

在这个国家的一部分地区，很难创造一个私人的“花园”空间，房子的布置是将一部分土地部分地围在场地的后面，并由远处的森林提供帮助。房子以“L”的形状环绕着这个空间，营造出一种乡村庭院的感觉。尽管房子很大，天花板高度也很高，但卧室占据了屋顶的阁楼空间，营造了一种亲密的、传统的家庭感觉。

In a part of the country where it is very difficult to creat a private “garden” space, the house is arranged to partially enclose a section of land to the back of the site, aided by the forest beyond. The house wraps around this space in an “L” shape, creating what feels like a rural courtyard. Despite the significant size of the house and generous ceiling heights, the bedrooms occupy the loft space of the roof to create an intimate and traditionally domestic feel.
