Located in suburban Melbourne, Fairfield Hacienda is a one-storey house designed by MRTN Architects.

费尔菲尔德庄园位于墨尔本郊区，是一栋由MRTN建筑师设计的单层住宅.

Description by MRTN Architects: On the fringe of Melbourne’s inner suburbs, this new family home sits in an established residential street of Victorian villas and Californian bungalows. From the footpath, the Fairfield Hacienda with its angled roof fits into the landscape of single-level homes, effortlessly picking up the street’s original pattern of hipped and gabled roof forms. A closer look however, reveals that this new house sits unusually behind a sunny, walled courtyard. This room without a roof, except for a sheltering courtyard tree, is an extension of the living and dining spaces that open onto it.

MRTN建筑师描述：在墨尔本近郊的边缘，这座新的家庭住宅坐落在维多利亚别墅和加州平房的一条老牌住宅街道上。从人行道上看，费尔菲尔德庄园的倾斜屋顶与单层住宅的景观相契合，毫不费力地恢复了街道原有的倾斜和门廊屋顶形式。然而，仔细一看，就会发现这座新房子位于阳光明媚的四合院后面。这间没有屋顶的房间，除了一棵遮荫的庭院树外，是通往它的居住和就餐空间的延伸。

As with our commitment to ensure the Fairfield Hacienda preserves the flow of the streetscape, we’ve applied a similar fluidity to the concrete walls of the courtyard, which continue without interruption throughout the house’s main living areas. These walls remain unchanged except for the patina. Outside they are rough and weathered, but become polished and honed once inside. The space is covered with an undulating canopy of cedar, a warm blanket of timber.

正如我们致力于确保费尔菲尔德庄园保持街道景观的流动一样，我们在院子的混凝土墙上也采用了类似的流动性，这些墙在整个住宅的主要居住区域都没有中断过。这些墙保持不变，除了帕蒂纳。在外面，他们是粗糙和风化，但成为抛光和磨练一次在里面。空地上覆盖着一层起伏的雪松树冠，一层温暖的木料。

From here, the more private areas of the house unfurl. The bedrooms are folded around an enclosed garden, a green lung that provides light and air into the centre of the house.

从这里开始，房子里更多的私人区域展开。卧室被折叠在一个封闭的花园周围，一个绿色的肺，提供光线和空气进入房子的中心。

And yet, of all the wonderful and carefully considered materials that make up this home, one element could not be bought and affixed prior to moving in. It is, quite simply, time. As the Fairfield Hacienda and its occupants settle into the street, creepers and greenery will gradually claim the courtyard walls. A canopy will grow into a dappled roof and in the central garden, plants will provide convenient screening for the children from the parents.

然而，在构成这个家的所有奇妙和仔细考虑的材料中，有一个元素在搬进来之前是无法购买和粘贴的。很简单，时间到了。随着费尔菲尔德庄园和它的居住者定居街头，爬虫和绿色植物将逐渐要求庭院墙壁。一个树冠将成长为一个斑驳的屋顶，在中央花园，植物将为孩子提供方便的筛选父母。

Once this final element has taken root, Fairfield Hacienda will have achieved what its occupants wanted. A feeling of permanence. To create a home and become a part of the street and its ongoing history.

一旦这最后一个要素扎根，费尔菲尔德哈西达将实现其居住者的要求。一种永恒的感觉。创造一个家园，成为街道及其历史的一部分。
