业主们热衷于在空间和物质上与土地有联系的房子。他们有兴趣以一种露营的感觉占领这个地点，在那里，不同的相互连接的展馆提供了不同的职业和隐私或开放的领域。

The owners were keen for a house that had a connection to the land spatially and materially. They were interested in occupying the site with a sense of encampment, where different interlinked pavilions offered different areas of occupation and privacy or openness.

我们把这些空间安置在低矮的山墙下面，寻找着土地和建筑之间模糊的界限。厚重的线形混凝土墙是土地的一部分，用来定义室内和室外空间。山墙的屋顶浮在上面，提供了住所和舒适的家。园景被种植；果园、树木和藤蔓的线条标志着这片土地的固定模式，而房子则以准备种植的长线和柱子来回应，以使房子与土地进一步结合起来。

We housed the spaces beneath low sloping gable forms and looked to blur boundaries between the land and building. Heavy linear concrete walls feel part of the land and are used to define indoor and outdoor spaces. The gable roofs float over these to provide shelter and the comforts of home. The landscape is cultivated; lines of orchard trees and vines mark the land in regular patterns and the house responds with the lines of pergolas and posts ready for planting to integrate the house with the land further still.

在主要空间中使用的主要材料是混凝土和桉树，这些材料经过详细和精心制作，清晰地表达了各种形式，并给人一种温暖、迷人和自然的感觉。

The predominant materials used in the main spaces are concrete and Eucalyptus Saligna, which have been detailed and crafted to articulate the forms clearly and give a warm, engaging and natural feel.

东端和西端山墙形式采用标准桁架屋面结构，空间排列在GIB板上，而主体空间更具有运动性和高高在上性，家庭大部分时间都是在这里度过的。

To provide an economy to the construction the east and west end gable forms use standard truss roof construction and the spaces are lined in gib board, whereas the main spaces are more athletic and lofty where the family spend most of their time.
