架构师提供的文本描述。这座房子坐落在华盛顿里奇兰的獾山脚下，从自然景观和日本传统建筑的干净线条中汲取了它的设计影响。虽然该项目的主要目标是满足日益增长的家庭对更多空间的需求，但通过努力捕捉哥伦比亚河的全景，并将其与周围的景观连接起来，使这个家具有其形状和方向。主要空间排列在一个简单的平面上，垂直于山坡，尽量减少对场地的影响，并最大限度地向北眺望。房子朝南的一面向室外游泳池和观察区开放，可以看到獾山的山顶。

Text description provided by the architects. Set on the foot of Badger Mountain in Richland Washington, this house draws its design influence from both the natural landscape and the clean lines of traditional Japanese architecture.  While the project's primary goal is to answer the growing family's need for additional space, efforts to capture the sweeping views of the Columbia River and connect to the surrounding landscape give this home its shape and orientation. The major spaces are aligned in a simple plan that is arranged perpendicular to the slope of the hillside, minimizing site impact and maximizing views to the north. The south-facing side of the home opens to an outdoor pool and observation area that offers views of the Peak of Badger Mountain.

按照布雷迪·邦奇(Brady Bunch)的真实风格，这座房子的需求来自两个家庭，这两个家庭在一起，使得房子里的人数翻了一番，其中包括一位有两个儿子的父亲和一个有两个女儿的妻子。第一个人试图找到一位当地建筑师，可以在华盛顿的里奇兰设计一套现代化的住宅，但很快他们发现，他们需要到西雅图旅行200英里，才能找到

In true Brady Bunch style the need for the house was born out of two families coming together doubling the amount of people in the house including a Father with two sons and a Wife with Two Daughters.  The first attempted to find a local architect that could design a modern home in Richland Washington, but soon found they needed to travel 200 miles to Seattle to find the right designers.
