This beachfront house is located on the Atlantic coast in New Jersey. The lot is on the beachfront, but very small, tucked away from the street, and had many code-regulated square-footage and height restrictions. The challenge was to create something open and light-filled that takes advantage of its beautiful setting, yet uses every available square inch of buildable area allowed by law.

这座海滨别墅位于新泽西州大西洋海岸。该地段在海滨，但非常小，远离街道，并有许多法规规定的面积和高度限制。我们面临的挑战是创造一种开放的、光线充足的东西，利用它美丽的环境，同时利用法律允许的每一平方英寸的可建造面积。

The house was initially designed in 2012, and construction had just begun when Hurricane Sandy swept through the area causing major damage and beach erosion. Shortly thereafter, FEMA changed all the regulations regarding beachfront houses, which required a “start from scratch” redesign of the whole house. The clients, obviously, were not happy, but understanding, and we reworked the design in accordance with the new regulations. It is the only modern beachfront house in Beach Haven that was designed in accordance with these new rules, and a model for how a house can be resistant to winds and storm surge, yet still remain very aesthetically appealing.

这座房子最初是在2012年设计的，飓风桑迪横扫该地区，造成严重破坏和海滩侵蚀时，建筑工程才刚刚开始。此后不久，联邦应急管理局改变了所有关于海滨房屋的规定，要求“从头开始”重新设计整个房子。显然，客户并不高兴，而是理解，我们按照新的规定重新设计了设计。这是唯一的现代海滨别墅，在海滩港湾，是按照这些新规则设计的，并为一个模型，如何能够抵抗风和风暴潮，但仍然保持了非常美观的吸引力。

Many (if not most) houses built to current regulations on the coast are basically traditional styles, elevated on pilings to the required flood level. Even when the pilings are covered with panels, the proportions often are not pleasing, and they appear awkward or ad-hoc. Our intent with the Beach Haven house was to embrace the fact that the house had to be elevated on what are basically telephone poles driven into the sand, and use these as major design components, to be expressed and highlighted.

许多(如果不是大多数)房屋建造的现行法规在海岸基本上是传统的风格，在桩上架设到所需的洪水位。即使桩被面板覆盖，比例也往往不讨人喜欢，而且显得笨拙或特别。我们与海滩港湾的意图是接受这样一个事实，那就是房子必须被架设在基本的电线杆上，然后把它们作为主要的设计部件来表达和强调。

The beachfront house was designed for a family of five. The upper level features a beachfront master suite, and each child has their own, uniquely styled “ship’s cabin”. The lower level includes a guest room / office, lounge, elevated hot tub area, and a large living / dining / kitchen space. We drove a series of pilings at the perimeter of the house that remain exposed, and form linear colonnades that integrate with the overall form of the house. All of this fits within a compact 2500 square foot envelope.

海滨房子是为五个家庭设计的。上层有一个海滨主套房，每个孩子都有自己独特风格的“船舱”。下层包括客房/办公室、休息室、高架热水浴缸区域和大型生活/餐饮/厨房空间。我们在房屋周边开了一系列的桩桩，这些桩仍然暴露在外，并形成了与房屋整体形式集成的线性柱廊。所有这些都符合一个紧凑的2500平方英尺的信封。

This is first and foremost a beachfront house. It not only responds to the client’s needs, but to the extreme environmental conditions of the Jersey Shore. The house packs a lot of program into its relatively small envelope, while maintaining an interior that is bright and open. Clerestory windows or narrow slot windows are used on the sides facing adjacent houses, and full-height glass looks to the sea.

这首先是海滨别墅。它不仅响应客户的需求，而且适应泽西岛海岸的极端环境条件。房子里装了很多程序，装在它相对较小的信封里，同时保持了一个明亮而开放的内部。教堂的窗户或狭小的缝隙窗户被用来面对相邻的房屋，而全高的玻璃则向大海望去。

Techniques that are often used in boat building were used in the construction of the house. The roof is all fiberglass, and the exterior components all stainless steel. Windows are of the highest hurricane-rating available. The form of the house was developed by extruding the entire buildable footprint to the maximum height allowable, and sculpturally carving the resultant mass. We also used a combination of eastern white cedar and western red cedar as the exterior cladding, stained and bleached to create different shades and textures, to emphasize the sculptural quality of the house. Cedar has proven over time to be extremely durable in a beach environment.

经常用于造船的技术被用于建造房屋。屋顶全是玻璃纤维，外部部件都是不锈钢。窗户的飓风等级最高。房子的形式是通过挤压整个可建造的脚印到最大允许的高度，并雕刻出由此产生的质量。我们还采用东方白雪松和西红雪松作为外部覆层，染色和漂白，以创造不同的色调和纹理，以强调房子的雕塑质量。雪松已经证明，随着时间的推移，是非常持久的海滩环境。
