建筑面积:4500平方米 Project Area: 4,500 sqm 这个住宅三面被自然的公园林地包围,位于泰博山脚下一块美丽的场地内,可以鸟瞰城市和下面的海港。住宅蜷缩在山中,整个结构最大限度地与周围景观融合。一个被挖空的院落使人们能进入院落,同时保证住宅向着街道一侧和邻居一侧的隐私性,同时它能阻挡来自南面的强风。这个寂静的地方还包含一个池塘和具有雕塑感的古树,它们将人们引向六米高的门厅塔,这里不同的元素开始生动地展现住宅的内涵。 Surrounded by protected natural parklands on three sides, the house was built on an exceptional plot at the base of Table Mountain with sweeping views down to the city and harbor below. The site lies alongside a ravine, where amid the dense vegetation a stream flows in an uninterrupted path from the mountain parks above all the way to the city dams below. Tucked in against the mountain, the structure was designed to integrate as much as possible with its surrounding landscape. An excavated courtyard gives access to the house, ensuring total privacy from the street and an adjacent neighbor and also protecting its inhabitants from the strong southern winds. This tranquil space complete with a pond and sculptural indigenous trees leads to the six-meter-high foyer tower which articulates the different elements of the house that continue out from that central focal point.
