The initial objective was to design two houses, in a high slope area in the Mount Washington; Los Angeles downtown area.

最初的目标是设计两栋房子，位于华盛顿山的一个高斜坡区，洛杉矶市区。

The property is located on a hill five miles away from downtown Los Angeles. The slopes of the lot are variable. Towards the front of the lot, the slopes oscillate between 15 and 20%, in the intermediate area the terrain is flat and sharpens in the back with slopes of 45 to 50%. The Oleander house is located in the center of the lot.

该物业位于离洛杉矶市中心五英里外的一座小山上。该地段的坡度是可变的。在该地段的正面，斜坡振荡在15%至20%之间，在中间区域，地形平坦，背面陡峭，坡度为45%至50%。奥利安德的房子位于停车场的中心。

It is a contemporary house built with the objective to make the maximum use of light and natural ventilation, the views of the city and a great connection between the interior and exterior of the house.

它是一座以最大限度地利用光和自然通风、城市景观和室内与外部的巨大联系为目标的现代住宅。

The Oleander house offers several points of connection with the outside: the porch on the first floor serves as a welcoming element, and the dining room that opens onto the garden provides a union with the outdoors. On the second floor, there are two terraces with different levels; the first faces the street and looks out towards the city and the rear terrace which visually connects with the garden.

Oleander餐厅提供了几个与外部的连接点：一楼的门廊是一个欢迎的元素，通往花园的餐厅为户外提供了一个结合。在二楼，有两个不同层次的梯田，第一个面向街道，面向城市和后露台，在视觉上连接花园。

A key role of the structure is to serve as a platform providing and optimizing views of the city and landscape from different spaces of the house.

该结构的一个关键作用是作为一个平台，提供和优化城市和景观的不同空间的房子。

The structure also motivates an encounter with surrounding nature and the garden area; the relocation of the garage from the rear to the front of the house was made with the purpose of reconnecting the home with the rear garden.

这一结构还激发了与周围自然和花园区域的接触；车库从后面搬迁到房子的前部，目的是将家与后花园重新连接起来。

In all, it is an innovative project, an intervention on a deteriorated structure. It is an evolution of increased conformity toward harmony with the geographical, environmental and cultural surroundings of this Californian home. Key elements that influenced the project are: a topography that allows the diversity of mountains and city views; an ecological and social connection that reflects the city’s multi-cultural and environmentally conscious population; ecology and the desire for interaction; socializing and connecting with nature.

总之，它是一个创新的项目，是对退化结构的干预。它是与这个加州人的地理、环境和文化环境和谐共处的演变。影响项目的关键要素是：一种允许山区和城市景观多样性的地形；反映城市的多元文化和环境意识人口的生态和社会联系；生态和互动的愿望；社会化和与自然联系。
