架构师提供的文本描述。BrickBay House是对一个地点的开始和结束的询问；如何定义项目的边缘；以及景观可能被居住的方式。它的低矮的形式让人想起了朴素的农舍和“优雅的棚屋”的概念。

Text description provided by the architects. The Brick Bay House is an enquiry into where a site begins and ends; how to define the edges of the project; and the way landscape may be inhabited. Firmly dug into the earth and composed as a simple L plan, its low form recollects modest farming buildings and the idea of an ‘Elegant Shed’.

这座房子是为一个五口之家设计的，客户想要一套与土地轮廓相对应的房子，这种房子与乡村环境有着一种轻松的联系感。这座房子位于通往斯内尔海滩的道路上，占地4公顷，西起陡峭，可以看到卡瓦湾和西南边界的一条主干道。

The house was designed for a family of five, with the clients wanting a house that responded to the contours of the land with a relaxed sense of connection to the rural surroundings. The house is located on the road to Snell’s Beach on a 4 ha section, that’s steeply rises to the west with views to Kawau Bay and a main road along the south western boundary.

房子与私人区域协商场地的轮廓，沿着山坡向南蹒跚而下，建立了一个庭院，并提供了保护。L图对西南边界上方的道路构成了一道屏障，堵住了噪音，并给予了隐私。北甲板向东和西开放，允许午后阳光穿透生活区。山墙屋檐下的开放式居住区域在北面和东面都有门廊，可以看到卡瓦湾的景色。

The house negotiates the contours of the site with the private areas staggering down the hill to the south, creating a courtyard, and providing protection. The L plan forms a barrier to the road above on the south west boundary, blocking noise and giving privacy. The north deck opens to the east and west allowing afternoon sun to penetrate the living areas. The open plan living areas under the gable roof have porch enclosures to north and east that frame views to Kawau Bay.

大卡帕板的正面和板条包裹着房子的纹理美丽的纹理，使自然温暖的外观，登记的时间，因为它的颜色变化。走道廊的百叶窗框架在夏季提供遮荫，冬天提供保护。木材的环境效益对该项目至关重要，木材是在当地采购的，从河源防护林小批量加工而成。废物是在现场处理的木屑，用于花园和农场，并切断木柴和家具。

The facade of Macrocarpa board and batten wraps the house with a beautifully textured grain that gives a natural warmth to the façade, registering time as its colour changes. The louvered frame to the walkway gallery provides shade in the summer and protection in the winter. The environmental benefits of timber was vital to the project, with timber being locally sourced and milled in small runs from Riverhead shelterbelt trees. Waste was dealt with on site with sawdust used for the garden and farm, and off-cuts for firewood and furniture.
