Located in Montana, Big Timber Riverside House is a single family house designed by Hughesumbanhowar Architects in collaboration with Studio H Design.

位于蒙大拿州，大木材河畔房屋是一个单一的家庭住宅设计的休森霍瓦尔建筑师与H工作室的合作设计。

Description by Hughesumbanhowar: The sole shelter providing trees on this 2000-acre Montana ranch are the cottonwoods along the banks of the property-bisecting river. The house is sited is in a clearing within a grove of these trees that reveals a clear view of the distant mountain range known as the Crazies. The environs recall the unexploited American West of a century ago.

休森班豪玛的描述：在这个占地2000英亩的蒙大拿州牧场上，唯一提供树木的地方是沿着地产平分河两岸的棉花林。这所房子坐落在树林中的一片空地上，可以清楚地看到远处的山脉，被称为克雷兹山脉(Crazies)。周围的人回忆起一个世纪前未开发的美国西部。

This river has the potential to dramatically flood its banks during late spring melt off in the mountains. As the first line of defense to this self imposed threat, the house sits on a 30” tall porous plinth lifting the finish floors well above the flood line. Other than the elevated driveway, the house will appear to float on the river as waters pass around and under the foundation. The house has been sited among spring fed ponds in the flood plain that provide year round water features when the river otherwise can slow to a trickle during drought cycles.

这条河有可能在春末山体融化时使其河岸急剧泛滥。作为这一自我威胁的第一道防线，这座房子坐落在一个30“高的多孔基座上，在洪水线上方的很高的地板上起吊。除了高架车道外，当河水在地基周围和下面流过时，这座房子似乎会漂浮在河上。这所房子坐落在洪水平原的春季池塘中，这些池塘提供全年的水特性，否则，在干旱循环期间，河水会慢到涓涓细流。

The house presents two distinct and separate facades on arrival, revealing itself after the visitor enters as two interlocking objects – one, a two-level glass wedge, the other a one story wooden bar. Joined together they form a “T” shape. A glass enclosed hall along the western side of the residence adds to the width of the wooden structure and recalls the scale and function of the shed covered walkways in former frontier towns.

该房屋在到达时展示了两个不同的独立立面，在访客作为两个互锁对象进入后展示自己--一个是一个双层玻璃楔，另一个是一层木条。连接在一起形成“T”形。住宅西侧的玻璃封闭式大厅增加了木结构的宽度，并回溯了原边疆城镇的棚盖走道的规模和功能。
