架构师提供的文本描述。客户简介的是位于他们大农场内的一个家庭度假别墅。首选的地点是在山脊线上，有广阔的乡村景观。该网站暴露在强风和主要的南面景观。

Text description provided by the architects. The clients brief was for a family holiday home located within their large farm property. The preferred site was on a ridge line with expansive rural views. The site is exposed to strong winds and has predominantly southern views.

目的是对这些意见作出反应，同时提供一种躲避各种因素的感觉。一个简单大胆的形式被认为是对广阔乡村景观的适当回应。

The objective was to respond to the views while providing a sense of shelter from the elements. And a simple bold form was considered an appropriate response to the vast rural landscape.

这些空间被安排在一个中央庭院周围，它提供了一个面向下午阳光的室外居住空间。虽然庭院提供实物保护，但视觉连接的景观已经创造了四面八方。

The spaces are organized around a central courtyard which provides an outdoor living space oriented for afternoon sun. While the courtyard provides physical protection, visual connections to landscapes beyond have been created in all directions.

房子的南面和东侧都有可供选择的室外起居空间，以便在一天中的不同时间使用，并适应风向。从内部看，通过将所有大开口的玻璃线深凹到建筑形式中，增强了住房的感觉，产生了巨大的悬垂。

Alternative outdoor living spaces were located on the south and east sides of the house to allow for use at different times of the day and to suit the wind direction. From the inside the feeling of shelter is enhanced by deeply recessing the glazing line of all large openings into the building form creating large overhangs.

地势陡峭地倾斜在山脊的两侧，留下一条狭长的地带可供建造。由于岩土方面的限制，任何建筑物的荷载都被放置在北坡顶部附近，进一步限制了建筑平台。该空间方案是在较小的足迹范围内通过在不稳定的地面上悬挑出一些空间来实现的。

The site slopes away steeply on both sides of the ridge leaving a narrow strip to build on. Geotechnical constraints prevented any building load being placed near the top of the northern slope further restricting the building platform. The spatial programme was achieved within a small footprint by cantilevering some spaces out over the unstable ground.

这份简报要求主要的居住空间要有一个很好的容量。该网站有一个缓坡的入口方向，所以我们设置了一个恒定的天花板水平，并逐步通过四层楼。从入口空间开始，被压缩，你通过一个与空间功能和计划大小相关的卷的层次在庭院的外围循环，最后进入主客厅。

The brief required the main living space to have a good volume. The site has a gentle slope in the direction of entry so we set a constant ceiling level and stepped the floors down through four levels. Starting with the entry space, being compressed, you circulate down around the periphery of the courtyard through a hierarchy of volumes that relates to the space function and plan size, ending with entry into the main living room.

该网站是非常具有挑战性的，但随着客户不断的承诺，我们认为，我们已经实现了他们的目标完全通过一个简单和优雅的形式。

The site was very challenging but with the clients ongoing commitment we feel that we have achieved their objectives totally with a simple and elegant built form.
