Klopf Architecture designed and Van Gelder Construction built a new Sacramento modern residence to replace an existing ranch home. The owners, who previously lived in a Streng home (similar to an Eichler), liked clean lines, simple details, and openness to the outdoors. The site is a large plot in a semi-rural area surrounded by an open field, large oak trees and a seasonal creek. It is a calm environment that invites a close connection with the house.

The goals of the project were direct and indirect connections to the surrounding environment and the interior. This Sacramento modern residence sits in a calm and natural environment. The clients’ primary goal was connecting their indoor living spaces to nature in all parts of the house. The Klopf Architecture team responded by designing a wide plan for the house that allows the main living space, bathrooms and master bedroom to open up to natural views at the rear. Then Klopf put large sliding doors along the rear of the master bedroom and the main living area to provide direct and expansive access to the outdoors.

该项目的目标是与周围环境和内部直接和间接联系。这座萨克拉门托现代住宅坐落在一个平静的自然环境中。客户的主要目标是将他们的室内居住空间与房子所有部分的自然联系起来。克洛普夫建筑团队的回应是为这座房子设计了一个广阔的规划，允许主要的居住空间、浴室和主卧室向后方的自然景观开放。然后，克洛普夫在主卧室的后部和主起居区放置了大的滑动门，以提供直接和广阔的户外通道。

It was important for the house to sit lightly and keep a relatively low profile out of respect for neighboring houses and the natural feel of the area. Clearly this meant designing a single story home. Additionally the Klopf Architecture team sloped the roof to be at its lowest in the front and open up to the rear. This was intended to create a more humble appearance from the front of the house while still engaging the rear of the side as much as possible.

重要的是，房子要轻轻坐着，保持相对低调，以尊重邻近的房屋和地区的自然感觉。很明显，这意味着设计一个单层住宅。此外，克洛普夫建筑团队倾斜屋顶，使其在最前面和开放的后方。这是为了创造一个更谦逊的外观，从前面的房子，同时仍然接触后方尽可能多。

This area gets quite hot in the summer. In response, Klopf designed the house to feel comfortable and still be energy efficient year round and throughout the hot summer days. In the beginning of the day when the sun is low and direct in the front of the house, the couple can open their rear sliding glass doors or live outside on the rear decks. In the middle of the day when the sun is more overhead from the south, the extra deep overhangs and shading devices in the rear patio allow these spaces to be used comfortably. At the end of the day, when the sun is blasting the rear of the house, there is a patio area in the front of the home that is in shade, but still bright because of openings in the roof. Despite the harsher sun and climate in the area, the outside environment can always be experienced comfortably.

这个地区夏天很热。作为回应，克洛普夫设计的房子让人感到舒适，而且全年和整个炎热的夏天都是节能的。在一天的开始，当太阳低，直接在前面的房子，这对夫妇可以打开他们的后方滑动玻璃门或生活在外面的后甲板。在中午，当太阳从南方更高的头顶，额外的深悬挂和遮阳装置在后面的露台，使这些空间可以舒适地使用。在一天结束的时候，当太阳在房子的后面，有一个露台区域在前面的房子是在阴影，但仍然明亮，因为在屋顶上的开口。尽管该地区的太阳和气候更恶劣，但外界环境总是可以舒适地体验。

The design team employed a number of energy efficient strategies to make the interior environment comfortable and efficient. In addition to in-wall insulation, a continuous layer of rigid insulation was applied to the exterior walls of the house (and sealing house wrap and tape) to lower the heat gain. High performance and low solar heat gain glass at the main exposures of the house also reduce the potential heat. A “cool roof” metal roof was used to reflect much of the direct sun and heat before it can heat up the house. The windows are all thermally broken aluminum (Fleetwood and Milgard), which are much more energy efficient than older aluminum windows. In addition to these defensive strategies, to save even more energy the Klopf Architecture team specified high efficiency heating and cooling units and almost all LED lighting.

设计团队采用了许多节能策略，使室内环境舒适高效。除了墙内保温外，还在房屋外墙(以及密封室的包装和胶带)上施加了一层连续的硬质隔热层，以降低热量。高性能和低太阳热增益玻璃在房子的主要曝光也减少了潜在的热量。一个“冷屋顶”金属屋顶被用来反射直接的太阳和热量，然后它可以加热房子。所有的窗户都是热破坏的铝(弗莱特伍德和米尔加德)，这比旧铝窗户更节能。除了这些防御策略，为了节省更多的能源，Klopf建筑团队指定了高效率的加热和冷却单元以及几乎所有的LED照明。

While natural wood siding looks great, it wouldn’t last long under the harsh sun conditions in Orangevale. In response, the Klopf team specified high recycled content composite siding (Tru-Grain) that maintains its look without maintenance much longer than wood possibly could, along with some smooth white stucco to visually separate the main living area. On the interior, the main living space has an exposed concrete floor with composite counters, and white oak cabinets. The bedroom wing uses reclaimed white oak flooring from Blackwood Farm. The owners wanted a different feel between the main living area and the bedroom wing (the bedroom wing is more for rest while the living area is a lot more active), so Klopf varied the materials to some extent. That said, in order to preserve the feeling of flow, Klopf kept many material connections between the two areas.

虽然天然木材壁板看上去很棒，但在奥朗杰维尔的严酷阳光下，它不会持续很长时间。作为回应，克洛普夫小组指定了高可回收含量的复合墙板(Tru-谷物)，它在不维护木材的情况下保持外观的时间比木材长得多，还有一些光滑的白色灰泥，在视觉上将主要的生活区分隔开来。在室内，主要的居住空间有一个暴露的混凝土地板与复合计数器，和白色橡木橱柜。卧室的机翼使用从黑伍德农场回收的白橡木地板。主人希望主起居区和卧室机翼之间有一种不同的感觉(卧室的机翼更适合休息，而客厅的活动更活跃)，所以Klopf在一定程度上改变了材料。也就是说，为了保持流动的感觉，克洛普夫在这两个区域之间保持了许多物质联系。

People often ask about challenges during demolition and construction. The house project started as an option between tearing down and replacing the existing home and renovating it. The owners originally decided on a renovation, but during construction Sean van Gelder, the builder, discovered that the slab and foundation were too damaged to keep. At that point everyone shifted gears and turned the project into a new house design. The climate (heat) that was certainly a challenge as well. The Klopf Architecture team had to be extra cognizant of the sun angles and also had to carefully design the house for minimal heat gain in the envelope given the high level of openness desired.

在拆除和施工过程中，人们经常会问到一些挑战。该房屋项目是在拆除和更换现有房屋以及对其进行翻新之间的一种选择。业主最初决定进行翻修，但在施工过程中，建筑工人肖恩·范·格尔德发现，楼板和地基损坏得太严重，无法保存。到了那个时候，每个人都改变了方向，把这个项目变成了一个新的房子设计。气候(炎热)当然也是一个挑战。Klopf建筑团队必须特别注意太阳的角度，并且考虑到高度的开放性，还必须仔细地设计房间，使其在信封中获得最小的热量。

The owners are a husband and wife with grown kids. They were looking to create a space for their family to relax outside of their jobs and ultimately retire. They are both very creative in their respective fields (he is a TV producer and she is a chef with her own restaurant). They brought their collaborative creativity to the design process for the house.

主人是一对夫妇，有着成年的孩子。他们希望为他们的家庭创造一个空间，让他们在工作之外放松一下，最终退休。他们在各自的领域都很有创造力(他是一名电视制片人，而她是一名拥有自己餐厅的厨师)。他们把他们的协作创造力带到了房子的设计过程中。

The Sacramento modern residence is a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath, and 2,633 square foot that is intended to be the home this couple will live in for a long time.

萨克拉门托现代住宅是一个3卧室，2.5浴室，2，633平方英尺，打算作为这对夫妇将长期居住的家。
