架构师提供的文本描述。沙漠之家，MarmolRadziner Prefab的原型住宅，是以最佳的角度捕捉圣贾辛托峰和周围的山脉。位于加利福尼亚州沙漠温泉城的一处占地5英亩的场地上，这座房子一直延伸到景观中，覆盖着室外居住区域，使2000平方英尺的室内空间翻了一番。一个独立的停车场允许车主在接近他们的家时“把车留在后面”。

Text description provided by the architects. The Desert House, Marmol Radziner Prefab’s prototype home is oriented to best capture views of San Jacinto peak and the surrounding mountains. Located on a five-acre site in Desert Hot Springs, California, the house extends through the landscape with covered outdoor living areas, which double the 2000 square-foot interior spaces. A detached carport allows the owners to “leave the car behind” as they approach their home.

为利奥·马摩尔和他的妻子艾莉萨·贝克特设计的沙漠之家使用了四个住宅单元和六个甲板模块。遮蔽的居住空间将室内与室外融为一体，同时将住宅延伸和连接到北翼，北翼拥有客房和演播室空间。

Designed for Leo Marmol and his wife Alisa Becket, the Desert House employs four house modules and six deck modules. Sheltered living spaces blend the indoors with the outdoors, simultaneously extending and connecting the house to the north wing, which holds a guest house and studio space.

这座房子在沙漠景观上方两英尺高的地方盘旋，锚定在凹槽的平台上。主要的居住空间向西展开，可以看到圣贾辛托山和圣戈戈尼奥山脉。开放式框架提供室内和室外混合的居住空间，同时将房屋延伸和连接到北翼，包括宾馆和演播室空间。通过形成一个“L”，家庭创造了一个受保护的环境，其中包括一个游泳池和火坑。

The house hovers two feet above the desert landscape, anchored on a recessed platform. The main living space unfolds west to views of the San Jacinto and San Gorgonio mountains. Open frames provide sheltered living spaces blending indoors and outdoors, while simultaneously extending and connecting the house to the north wing containing a guesthouse and studio space. By forming an “L”, the home creates a protected environment that includes a pool and fire pit.

这座房子是在一家工厂里用预制技术建造的。使用钢框架，十二英尺宽的模块可以延伸到六十四英尺的长度，并使用任何类型的包层，包括金属，木材，或玻璃。沙漠住宅由三种基本模块组成：室内模块，包括居住空间，外部模块，定义覆盖的室外生活区和遮阳模块，提供防晒。

The home is built with prefabricated technologies in a factory. Using steel framing, twelve feet wide modules can extend up to sixty four feet in length and use any type of cladding, including metal, wood, or glass. The Desert House is built with three types of basic modules: interior modules comprising the living spaces, exterior modules defining covered outdoor living areas and sunshade modules providing protection from the sun.

家庭的设计采用被动和主动太阳能技术以及可持续的设计理念。太阳能电池板为房屋提供电力。南面和西面的遮阳尽量减少夏季暴晒的影响。在较冷的月份，混凝土地板提供被动式太阳能加热。

The design of the home employs passive and active solar technologies as well as sustainable design concepts. Solar panels provide power used by the house. Sunshades on the south and west facades minimize the impact of the harsh summer sun. In the colder months, concrete floors provide passive solar heat gain.
