The Tula House reflects the casual irregularity of the sites rock ledges, beach, and forest in both its geometric and spatial order. The topography of the site is highly irregular; the prospects diverse.

图拉屋从几何和空间两方面反映了石质岩架、海滩和森林的不规则性。该遗址的地形非常不规则，前景多样。

Views to the east stretch over the open water and islands of the Strait of Georgia to the mountain ranges on the mainland of British Columbia. Views to the south overlook a small tidal basin. Moss covered basalt hills are interspersed among treed expanses and richly vegetated crevices, valleys and swales. Stands of red alder and big-leafed maple enliven the predominantly dark Douglas fir forest. The shoreline below the house is littered with the flotsam and jetsam of the ocean where logs and rocks have been tossed around by the tides and storms like a child’s game of “pickup sticks”. One site is actually many sites.

东面的景色延伸到乔治亚海峡的开阔水域和岛屿，延伸到不列颠哥伦比亚省大陆的山脉。南面的景色俯瞰着一个小的潮汐盆地。苔藓覆盖的玄武岩山丘散布在树木覆盖的广阔地带和植物茂盛的裂缝、山谷和斜坡之间。红苍翠和大叶枫树的林立，活跃了以黑暗为主导的道格拉斯冷杉森林。房子下面的海岸线上散落着海洋的浮子和抛撒物，那里的原木和岩石被潮汐和风暴抛来抛去，就像孩子们玩的“拾柴棒”一样。一个站点实际上是多个站点。

The Tula house cultivates a sense of dwelling with, and within, such diversity. Low rock walls edge a gravel approach to the house. A loose arrangement of concrete walls, clad in staggered fibre-cement panels, begins to describe space. These panels are charcoal in color, so that from a distance the house visually recedes into the dark forest. The roof, planted in moss and native ground covers, appears from above to be continuous with the surrounding ground plane.

图拉家培养了一种与这种多样性同住的感觉。低矮的岩壁边缘是通往房子的砾石。用交错的纤维水泥板覆盖的混凝土墙的松散布置开始描述空间。这些镶板颜色是木炭，因此从远处，房子从视觉上退避到黑暗的森林。屋顶种植在苔藓和天然地面覆盖物中，从上方开始与周围接地面连续。

Groundwater flows continuously through the site, and is captured momentarily within an entry courtyard. The ground plane of the courtyard and interior floor of the house are large shard-like concrete plates. Within the house, a series of slowly unfolding concrete walls define and channel the flow of space through to ocean views. This primary flow is diverted in passage by eddies of secondary space which branch off, separating and focusing moments of diversity in the site: the small tidal basin off the kitchen nook, a ledge of moss covered rock in the bedrooms, a view back from the court to a swath of deciduous trees.

地下水源源不断地流经现场，并在入口庭院内瞬间被捕获。院落的地面和房子的内层都是大碎片状的混凝土板。在房子内，一系列缓慢展开的混凝土墙定义并引导空间流经海洋景观。这条主要的水流在通过时被次级空间的漩涡所转移，次级空间的分叉、分离和集中了现场多样性的瞬间：厨房角落附近的小潮盆、卧室里覆盖着苔藓的岩石的峭壁，从庭院向后望去一片落叶树的景致。

Above, a steel-framed roof mirrors the order of concrete walls and floor plates. Narrow skylights project lines of light at oblique angles through space. At the cliff-edge, the solidity of concrete floors is left behind. A steel-framed, wooden deck cantilevers into the air. While an uninterrupted expanse of glass takes in distant, sublime views of the Straight, glazed apertures in the floor of the living room deck open vertiginously to the textures and sensual immediacy of beach and ocean below. Millwork elements float freely within the spaces like the flotsam and jetsam on the beach.

在上面，钢框架屋顶反映了混凝土墙和地板的顺序.狭窄的天窗投射出通过空间斜角度的光线。在悬崖边缘，混凝土地板的坚固性被抛在后面.一种钢制的木甲板悬臂在空中飘扬。一片不间断的玻璃从远处俯瞰着起居室甲板地板上的直通的玻璃光圈，令人眩晕地看到下面的海滩和海洋的质感和感官的直接性。磨坊的元素在空间中自由漂浮，比如海滩上的浮子和喷射器。
