House 19 is designed as a carbon neutral, energy efficient home in the ancient historic town of Old Amersham, nestled in the Chiltern Hills. The house fuses traditional forms and local materials in an elegant and modern way to make full use of the natural aspect and orientation of the site.

19楼被设计成一座碳中性的节能住宅，坐落在奇尔特恩山庄内的古老的历史古镇阿梅尔舍姆。该房屋融合了传统形式和地方材料，以一种优雅和现代的方式，充分利用自然方面和定位的网站。

The development of a simple plan and section has delivered a house of exceptional quality whilst at the same time bringing together the most comprehensive range of passive and active energy-saving features in a well-considered, thoughtful assembly of light-filled spaces, suited to 21st century living.

一个简单的计划和部分的发展提供了一个卓越的质量，同时汇集了最全面的被动和主动节能的特点，在一个深思熟虑的，考虑周到的轻型空间组装，适合21世纪的生活。

The architect’s expertise in, and passion for, sustainable design is evident in a combination of practical, robust, simple and deliverable design features that form the bedrock of the design approach. House 19 features a ground source heat pump, earth tube ventilation and rainwater harvesting and has been constructed to exceed building regulation standards of energy efficiency.

建筑师在可持续设计方面的专业知识和激情是显而易见的，结合了构成设计方法基础的实用、稳健、简单和可交付的设计特征。房屋19采用地源热泵、地管通风、雨水收集等特点，已超过建筑能效调节标准。

In terms of materials the house is firmly rooted in the history of the area through the use of delicately dark stained vertical board cedar cladding, snapped-and-knapped luminescent flint (used for cladding and to create external walls), dark zinc roofing and accents of carefully placed corten steel to accentuate certain elements of the elevation. The detailing of the house reflects these material choices.

在材料方面，这座房子牢固地植根于该地区的历史，它使用了精美的深色垂直板(雪松覆层)、断续和搭接的发光打火石(用于覆盖和制造外墙)、深色锌屋顶和精心放置的球状钢的口音，以强调海拔的某些元素。房子的细节反映了这些材料的选择。

House 19 is a fusion of architectural moves, contemporary vernacular and pragmatic sustainability features and represents a benchmark for new houses in historic locations.

19楼融合了建筑风格、现代乡土风格和实用的可持续性特征，是历史地段新房的基准。
