Montauk, NY, resembles many other small seaside communities. However, it possesses unique characteristics that imprint lasting memories. The weather is unpredictable with banks of heavy fog and gusty winds. History is closer to folklore than truth with stories of the Montauk Project Conspiracy, German Submarines and, the Montauk Monster blurring the line between fact and fiction. Remnants of the past such as a radar tower and bunkers are scattered throughout the landscape. Socially, there is a seasonal migration and mix of economic classes. The clients could have chosen to vacation anywhere in the world, but were lured to Montauk by the characteristics that make it unique from other areas. These characteristics embody the “Spirit of Montauk” and the clients challenged the architect to design a house that would embody and capture this spirit.

蒙托克，纽约，类似于其他许多小的海滨社区。然而，它具有独特的特点，留下了持久的记忆。由于大雾和狂风，天气不可预测。历史更接近于民俗学，而不是真理，故事的蒙托克计划阴谋，德国潜艇，蒙托克怪物模糊了事实和虚构之间的界线。过去的遗留物，如雷达塔和掩体，散落在整个景观中。在社会上，有季节性的移徙和经济阶层的混合。客户本可以选择去世界任何地方度假，但由于其独特的其他地区的特点，他们被蒙托克所吸引。这些特点体现了“蒙托克精神”，客户要求建筑师设计一套能够体现和体现这种精神的房子。

Formerly a horse ranch, the rolling green pasture of the site is located at one of the highest elevations in Montauk. The extensive program is terraced and embedded into the steep slope of the hill without compromising access to the exterior or natural light. Approaching from the south, the house appears to be two modest and separate one-story ranch houses. Circling around to the north, the house unfolds to reveal a more extensive project. The conventional Montauk building typology of the low-pitched.

以前是一个马场，滚动的绿色牧场位于蒙托克的最高海拔之一。广泛的程序是梯田和嵌入陡峭的山坡，而不影响外部或自然光。从南方走来，这所房子似乎是两座简朴而又独立的一层牧场房屋。房子向北盘旋，展现了一个更广泛的项目。低音调的传统蒙托克建筑类型。

Gabled roof is modified by the geometries of the allowable building envelope and height restrictions of the site. The ridge is offset and the walls converge, directing one’s view west to the lake. The optical illusion caused by the parabolic roof is visible on the South side and entices a second look, as do numerous other details.

门式刚屋面采用建筑围护结构的几何形状和场地的高度限制对其进行改造。山脊偏斜，墙壁会合，使人的视线向西向湖。由抛物线屋顶引起的视觉错觉在南侧是可见的，并吸引了第二次的目光，许多其他细节也是如此。

Architectural details throughout the house occur at unexpected moments. A wood screen covered bridge unifies the two shingle clad volumes, allowing light into the grass paver courtyard below. The cedar screen of the bridge reads differently from day to night. It appears flat during the day, but, as darkness falls, light seeps out in an undulating pattern showing the wedge shape cut in the back of the boards. In front of clerestory windows, a milled bluestone screen is similarly detailed. The stone appears weightless as alternating stones are removed from the pattern to let light into the guest area. These unexpected details reinforce the larger idea of capturing the unexpected.

整个房子的建筑细节发生在意想不到的时刻。一座木幕覆盖的桥梁将两块瓦片覆盖的空间结合在一起，让光线进入下面的草地摊铺机庭院。桥上的雪松屏风从白天到晚上都是不同的。白天它看起来是平的，但是，当夜幕降临时，光线会以起伏的模式渗出，显示出板子背面的楔形。在牧师的窗户前，一个被碾碎的青石屏幕也是同样详细的。这块石头似乎没有重量，因为交替的石头被从图案中移走，让光线进入客人区域。这些意想不到的细节强化了捕捉意外的更大的想法。

There is no prescribed path of circulation, encouraging different encounters much like the social experiences of Montauk. One can enter beneath the bridge and up terraced planter steps revealing the rolling hills and ocean in the distance. One can also climb the exterior entry stair that mirrors the interior stair, separated by a wall of glass. One can choose to enter into the house or continue to the outdoor fireplace, dining area, and out to the pool. The exploration resulting from unique circulation yields a different memorable experience for everyone.

没有规定的流通路径，鼓励不同的遭遇，就像蒙托克的社会经验一样。一个人可以进入桥下，登上梯级播种机的台阶，展现远处起伏的山丘和海洋。你也可以爬上外部的入口楼梯，里面的楼梯是由一面玻璃隔开的。你可以选择进入房子，或者继续到室外壁炉，就餐区和游泳池。由独特的循环产生的探索为每个人带来了不同的难忘体验。

The house celebrates the “spirit of the place” of where it is located. With the rise of technology and the internet, the identity of place can be lost. This project explores regionalism and the design evolves from the community it is located.

房子庆祝它所在的地方的“精神”。随着科技和互联网的兴起，地方的身份可能会丢失。这个项目探索区域主义，设计从它所在的社区演变而来。
