Nicole Vidalakis在波托拉山谷中为她梦想中的住宅找到了一个完美的场址;这是一块3.8英亩的漂亮的场址,稍微的倾斜着,场址上有成熟的橡树、杉木和松树。客户对设计的要求包括了内部空间的开敞布置;对功能进行分区,以在公共空间和私人空间之间创造清晰的界限;最大化看向旧金山的视野,在建筑体量和风景之间创造一个强烈的、共生的关系。住宅最后被设计成了L型。 L较长的部分中包括了位于一楼的主要公共空间,以及位于二楼的主卧、私室和办公室,这个部分是东西向的定位。L较短的部分位于南部,一堵线型的混凝土墙壁定义着这里的流通,混凝土墙壁延伸到了地形之中,从而形成了入口的边缘部分和住宅的庭院。这个部分包含了一个一层楼的家庭办公室、一个分开的车库和客房。住宅的计划组织创造了两个户外区域。一个是位于南部的私人的、受到保护的景观庭院,另一个是位于北部的更公开的娱乐观景台。 译者:蝈蝈 Nicole Vidalakis found the perfect site for her dream house in Portola Valley; a beautiful 3.8 acre gently sloping parcel, with mature oak, cedar and pine trees. Requirements for the design included open planning for interior spaces, zoning of the functions to provide clear separation between public and private spaces, maximizing views of San Francisco, and a strong, symbiotic relationship between building and landscape.The resulting design is based on a L-shaped plan, with the long leg consisting of the main public spaces on the ground floor and the master suite, den and office on the upper floors, running east to west. A linear concrete wall defines circulation on the south side of the leg, extending into the landscape to form the edges of the entry and the family courtyard. The short leg, on the south side of the long concrete wall, includes a one story home office and a detected garage and guesthouse. The plan organization creates two major outdoor areas, a private, protected landscaped courtyard on the south side and a more public viewing terrace for entertaining on the north.
