Text description provided by the architects. Located on Orcas Island in Washington, the Doe Bay Cabin bespeaks a keen attention to material economy and site sensitivity. Designed by Seattle-based Heliotrope Architects, the small residence utilizes the efficiency of prefabricated building elements to formalize the clients' modest cohabitation with the site and it's incredible natural offerings.

对于那些经常去附近度假胜地旅游超过20年的客户来说，选择在奥尔卡斯岛建造一间小屋，体现了他们对这个地方的深厚感情。带着两个年幼的孩子，这家人最终选择通过购买岛上的房产和委托Heliotrope设计一个度假小屋来确定这种感情。

For the clients, who had been regularly traveling to a nearby resort  for over two decades, the choice to build a cabin on Orcas Island embodies their deep affection for the place. With two young children, the family chose eventually to formalize this affection by purchasing property on the island and commissioning Heliotrope to design a vacation cabin.

面对有限的预算，Heliotrope选择了一种简单的建筑形式，它可以很容易地用现成的预制建筑元件来建造，即结构绝缘面板(Sips)。圣胡安群岛的圣胡安群岛为该项目提供了一个高效的信封，这是一个必要的特点。

Faced with a modest budget, Heliotrope chose a simple building form which could be easily constructed with readily-available prefabricated building elements, namely structurally insulated panels (SIPS). The SIPS afford the project a highly efficient envelope, a necessary feature in the San Juan Islands region of Washington.

这一设计结合了这种严格的效率方法和几个突出的特点，包括花园屋顶和19英尺高22英尺宽的窗口墙，在罗萨里奥海峡的视野畅通无阻。该项目的特点是英俊的细节贯穿始终，并全面反映了该地区的精神和日本和中国的遗产所有者。而只有1000平方英尺的居住空间，该项目提供了进一步的证据，好东西往往以小包装。

The design combines this rigorous approach to efficiency with several outstanding features, including a garden roof and a 19ft high by 22ft wide window-wall with unobstructed views down the Rosario Strait. The project features handsome detailing throughout, and holistically reflects both the spirit of the place and the Japanese and Chinese heritage of the owners. And with only 1000 square feet of living space, the project provides further proof that good things often come in small packages.
