The Mazama house is located in the Methow Valley of Washington State, a secluded mountain valley on the eastern edge of the North Cascades, about 200 miles northeast of Seattle. This mountain house was designed by Seattle-based Finne Architects.

马扎马之家位于华盛顿州的卫道谷，这是一个与世隔绝的山谷，位于北喀斯喀兹山脉的东部边缘，位于西雅图东北约200英里处。这座山房子是由西雅图的芬恩建筑师设计的。

Description by Finne Architects: The house has been carefully placed in a copse of trees at the easterly end of a large meadow. Two major building volumes indicate the house organization. A grounded 2-story bedroom wing anchors a raised living pavilion that is lifted off the ground by a series of exposed steel columns. Seen from the access road, the large meadow in front of the house continues right under the main living space, making the living pavilion into a kind of bridge structure spanning over the meadow grass, with the house touching the ground lightly on six steel columns. The raised floor level provides enhanced views as well as keeping the main living level well above the 3-4 feet of winter snow accumulation that is typical for the upper Methow Valley.

芬恩建筑师的描述：这所房子被仔细地安置在一片大草地东端的树林里。两个主要的建筑体积显示房子的组织。一个接地的2层卧室的机翼锚，一个凸起的活展馆，是由一系列裸露的钢柱从地面上升起。从通路上看，屋前的大草场一直延伸到主起居空间之下，使活亭成为一种横跨草丛的桥梁结构，房子轻轻地触到了六根钢柱上的地面。上升的地板水平提供了更好的视野，以及保持主要的生活水平，远远高于3-4英尺的冬季积雪堆积，这是典型的上卫道谷。

To further emphasize the idea of lightness, the exposed wood structure of the living pavilion roof changes pitch along its length, so the roof warps upward at each end. The interior exposed wood beams appear like an unfolding fan as the roof pitch changes. The main interior bearing columns are steel with a tapered V-shape, recalling the lightness of a dancer.

为了进一步强调轻盈的理念，活亭屋顶暴露出的木质结构改变了其长度的螺距，使屋顶在两端向上弯曲。随着屋顶间距的变化，内部暴露的木梁看起来就像一个展开的扇子。主要的内部轴承柱是钢的锥形V形，使人回想起舞蹈演员的轻盈。

The house reflects the continuing FINNE investigation into the idea of crafted modernism, with cast bronze inserts at the front door, variegated laser-cut steel railing panels, a curvilinear cast-glass kitchen counter, waterjet-cut aluminum light fixtures, and many custom furniture pieces. The house interior has been designed to be completely integral with the exterior. The living pavilion contains more than twelve pieces of custom furniture and lighting, creating a totality of the designed environment that recalls the idea of Gesamtkunstverk, as seen in the work of Josef Hoffman and the Viennese Secessionist movement in the early 20th century.

这座房子反映了费恩对精心设计的现代主义理念的持续调查，前门镶有铸青铜，各种激光切割的钢制栏杆，曲线型的铸玻璃厨房柜台，喷水切割的铝制灯具，以及许多定制家具。房子的内部已经被设计成与外部完全整合。活生生的展馆包含了12多件定制家具和照明，创造了一个整体的设计环境，这让人想起了20世纪初约瑟夫·霍夫曼和维也纳分离主义运动的作品中的Gesamtkunstverk思想。

The house has been designed from the start as a sustainable structure, with 40% higher insulation values than required by code, radiant concrete slab heating, efficient natural ventilation, large amounts of natural lighting, water-conserving plumbing fixtures, and locally sourced materials. Windows have high-performance LowE insulated glazing and are equipped with concealed shades. A radiant hydronic heat system with exposed concrete floors allows lower operating temperatures and higher occupant comfort levels. The concrete slabs conserve heat and provide great warmth and comfort for the feet.

这座房子从一开始就被设计为一种可持续的结构，其绝缘值比规范要求的高出40%，辐射混凝土板加热，高效的自然通风，大量的自然照明，保水管道固定装置，以及当地来源的材料。窗户具有高性能，低绝缘玻璃，并配备隐蔽遮阳。一个辐射的水热系统与暴露的混凝土地板允许较低的操作温度和更高的居住舒适水平。混凝土板保存了热量，为脚提供了极大的温暖和舒适。

Deep roof overhangs, built-in shades and high operating clerestory windows are used to reduce heat gain in summer months. During the winter, the lower sun angle is able to penetrate into living spaces and passively warm the exposed concrete floor. Low VOC paints and stains have been used throughout the house. The high level of craft evident in the house reflects another key principle of sustainable design: build it well and make it last for many years! Visit Finne Architects

深屋顶悬垂，内置遮阳和高操作的牧师窗口是用来减少夏季的增温。在冬季，较低的太阳角度可以穿透到生活空间，并被动温暖暴露的混凝土地板。低VOC油漆和污渍已在整个房子使用。高水平的工艺明显在房子反映了另一个关键的原则，可持续的设计：建设好它，使它持续许多年！参观芬恩建筑师
