Usually when one thinks of how a mountain cabin might look, they will picture something small, wooden, and designed for temporary stays throughout the winter. The designers at Skylab, however, had very different ideas when they took on the task of building Owl Creek House in Snowmass, United States!
通常,当人们想到山间小屋的样子时,他们会想象一些小的、木制的、专为整个冬天的临时停留而设计的东西。然而,在天空实验室的设计师们,当他们承担在美国斯诺弥斯建造猫头鹰之家的任务时,却有着非常不同的想法!
Rather than using natural woods and materials that reflect the scenery around the home, Skylab chose to create interesting, geometric, and captivating contrast by sticking to metals, straight lines, and corners. Instead of looking intimidating or out of place, however, the ultra modern looking structure appears grand, impressive, and intriguing.
天空实验室没有使用天然木材和材料来反映房屋周围的景色,而是选择了用金属、直线和拐角来创造有趣、几何和迷人的对比。然而,这款超现代的外观结构看上去雄伟、令人印象深刻、引人入胜,而不是让人望而生畏。

Besides its shaped and materiality, Owl Creek House catches the attention of anyone passing it thanks to the way it perches so perfectly atop a hillside. The angles the windows are placed at provides guests with a panoramic view of Snowmass Mountain. This means you can absorb the stunning scenery around you whether you’re sitting inside or outside, and no matter which room you’ve posted up in for a cozy evening.
除了它的形状和实质,猫头鹰溪屋吸引了任何经过它的人的注意,因为它如此完美地栖息在山坡上。窗户所处的角度为客人提供了雪山的全景。这意味着,无论你坐在里面还是外面,无论你住在哪个房间,你都可以吸收周围美丽的风景,度过一个舒适的夜晚。

The angles and metal posts that you see in the structure might look like awesome aesthetic choices, but they actually serve a functional purpose as well. Because the site chosen for the home is so mountainous and rocky, builders wanted to ensure they overcame rocky surfaces and slope constraints safely and effectively. By anchoring the structure directly into the rocky landforms it sits on at different points around the house, builders overcame all obstacles provided by the chosen site.
你在结构中看到的角度和金属柱看起来像是很棒的美学选择,但它们实际上也起到了功能上的作用。由于为房屋选择的场地是如此多山和岩石,建筑商希望确保他们克服岩石表面和斜坡约束安全有效。通过将建筑直接固定在房屋周围不同位置的岩石地貌中,建筑商克服了所选地点提供的所有障碍。
At the inception of the project, designers and owners decided that the primary goal of the space would be to prioritize the way a physical place can actually deepen connections between friends, families, and the natural world around all of us. Owl Creek was designed to give people differing spaces to relax together, converse, eat, or be active with one another while also interacting with nature in ways that they might not get to regularly at home.
在项目开始时,设计师和业主决定,这个空间的首要目标是优先考虑一个物理场所实际上可以加深我们周围的朋友、家人和自然世界之间的联系的方式。猫头鹰溪的设计是为了给人们提供不同的空间,让他们在一起放松、交谈、吃饭或活跃,同时也能以他们在家里可能无法正常到达的方式与大自然互动。

The social goals involves in building this fantastic house make even more sense when you learn that the dwelling was actually build as a singular but shared home for two families together, rather than just one. The structure is built as a collaborative home with one primary building for everyone, but there are also several small lodge areas clustered together outside the main building. These are intended as communal spaces meant for shared social time. Being able to travel from space to space with friends and family makes the entire home feel somehow both intimate and open all at once!
社会目标包括建造这个奇妙的房子更有意义,当你知道这所房子实际上是作为一个单独的,但共享的两个家庭一起建造,而不仅仅是一个。这个建筑是作为一个合作住宅而建造的,每个人都有一个主建筑,但也有几个小的小屋区域聚集在主建筑外面。这些都是为了共享社会时间的公共空间。能够与朋友和家人一起从太空旅行到另一个空间,这让整个家庭感觉既亲密又开放。
The walls of Owl Creek House might be made of thick materials and angles, but that doesn’t stop sunlight from sleeping in at all points! In fact, the involvement of natural light was a top priority along with shared social space during the entire building process. Designers purposely aimed to minimize visual separation between indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing natural sunlight to reach all parts of the house and land alike. Each of these things in combination makes the house a fantastic place for recharging your relationships, reinvigorating your soul, and reconnecting to the earth around you.
猫头鹰屋的墙壁可能是厚厚的材料和角度,但这并不能阻止阳光在任何地方睡觉!事实上,在整个建筑过程中,与共享的社会空间一起,自然光的参与是一个最高优先事项。设计师的目的是尽量减少室内和室外空间之间的视觉隔离,允许自然阳光照射到房屋和土地的各个部分。每一件事情结合在一起,使房子成为一个奇妙的地方,为你的关系充电,振兴你的灵魂,并重新连接到你周围的地球。
