柯式棚屋是欧文·史密斯建筑师设计的一座小型家庭住宅。这座房子位于新西兰吉斯伯恩北部的沿海社区。

The architect’s description: From a context of accrued bach-esk dwellings in a south facing coastal surf community, a strategy of sequencing building sets (aka surf) was generated to scale new form to its surrounds. Building sets are then offset to allow seasonal living and circulation options for variations in wind and sun exposure.

建筑师的描述：在一个面向南方的海岸冲浪社区中的Bach-Esk住宅的背景下，产生了一种排序建筑集合(又名SURF)的策略，以将新的形式扩展到它的周围。然后，建筑物的设置被抵消，以允许季节性居住和循环的变化，风和阳光暴露的选择。

Summer opens and invites in community; with diagonal movement connecting offset and shaded external spaces. Here living holds minimal interior use, with summer circulation defining informal house boundaries, and the control of sand.

夏季在社区中开放和邀请；与对角线运动连接，偏移和阴影的外部空间。这里的生活只有很少的室内用途，夏天的循环决定了非正式住宅的边界，以及对沙子的控制。

然后，生活内化为冬季关闭，高水平的开口捕捉宝贵的北极光和温暖，并抵消形式，为南方的暴露提供庇护。照片：欧文·史密斯建筑师，帕特里克·雷诺兹
