A lifetime spent in the boat-building industry provided the inspiration for this rusted steel cladding project. The location at the margin of the bay and exposed to the elements – wind and ocean called for a rugged response. Just as early Polynesian explorers turned their sea-craft upside down to create land shelters the up-turned hull form of this house evolved into a protective shell or carapace, segmented like that of a sea crustacean – the segments sliding over each other to allow light shafts to enter.

在造船行业度过的一生为这个锈迹斑斑的钢铁覆层项目提供了灵感。位于海湾边缘和暴露于风和海洋的元素的位置需要一种粗犷的反应。就像早期的波利尼西亚探险家把他们的海船颠倒过来建造陆地掩体一样，这座房子的向上翻转的船体形态演变成了一个保护壳或甲壳，像海洋甲壳动物一样被分割-这些部分互相滑动，允许光轴进入。

The materiality is also a response to the environment. Weathered like a vessel subjected to long ocean voyages, the rusted steel blends with the colours of the sand and rock and presents its outer shell to the elements as protection. The interior is warm and luxurious, with faceted ply walls and ceilings tracing the planes of the exterior. To the south a protective ‘shoulder’ is turned, with disjunct segments allowing narrow window planes to light the interior spaces and offer glimpses of views.

物质也是对环境的一种反应。锈蚀的钢就像一艘经历了漫长的海洋航行的船只，与沙子和岩石的颜色混合在一起，并将其外壳呈现给各种元素作为保护。室内是温暖和豪华，多面铺墙和天花板跟踪的外部平面。在南面，一个保护性的“肩膀”被转动，分离的部分允许狭窄的窗口平面照亮内部空间，并提供一瞥的视野。

On the north the shell is lifted up, allowing glazing to open out to decks facing views of the adjacent hills. The eastern elevation facing the beach is fully glazed, with translucent glass allowing for privacy, inset with clear glass panes for views and protected with a layered verandah.

在北面，贝壳被举起来，允许玻璃向甲板打开，可以看到邻近山丘的景色。面对海滩的东部高地是全玻璃的，半透明的玻璃允许隐私，嵌有透明的玻璃窗格供观赏，并保护一个分层的阳台。

This project is a ‘beautiful craft’ – the interior crafted with finesse like the interior of a luxurious superyacht, the exterior with its rusted steel cladding reflecting the beauty of voyage and return, vessel and shelter, vehicle and dwelling.
