Merricks 住宅

项目位于一个可以俯瞰晨顿半岛的场地，由一条长长的蜿蜒的车道穿过一个成熟的葡萄园到达。在设计过程中，住宅几乎没有暴露出来，呈现出一个抽象的、朴素的立面，从一个大树篱的缺口后面出现。

The site overlooking the MorningtonPeninsula is approached by a long winding drive through an established vineyard. On approach, the house gives little away, presenting an abstract, modest façade as it appears from behind a break in a large hedge.

从高高的土墙之间进入，一条长长的走廊随着木质天花板的下降而延伸到视野之外。当到达走廊的最低点时，大窗户穿过土墙，露出南边的葡萄树，向南可以看到大海，向北可以看到一条深色的水带穿过庭院，反射出天空。

Entering between tall earth walls, a long corridor curves beyond view as the timber ceiling drops into the distance. Upon reaching the lowest point of the corridor, large windows slice through the earth walls to reveal a dramatic view south across the vines to the ocean beyond, to the north a dark strip of water cuts through a courtyard reflecting the sky.

▽住宅入口 Entrance of the house

沿着中央轴线往前走，天花板呈弧形上升，两个大的生活空间与走廊相交，视野也随之展开。一条楼梯升到后面，似乎盘旋在藤蔓之上。一个低调的开口通向更远的空间。包括主卧室，浴室和私人露台，高架空间提供了山顶到山谷之外的景色。

Further along the central spine, the ceiling arcs up and the view unfolds as two large living spaces intersect the corridor. A staircase ascends beyond, and appears to hover above the vines. A discreet opening accesses a further volume beyond. Containing main bedroom, ensuite and private terrace, the elevated space affords views over the hilltop to the valley beyond.

项目主要作为一个度假和周末的住宅，三间卧室翼通过中央走廊的谨慎开口进入。这种布局允许访客之间的自主性，保证了房子在没有完全入住时不会显得空荡荡的。

Primarily a holiday and weekend residence, three bedroom wings are accessed through discreet openings in the central corridor. Allowing autonomy between visitors, this layout assures the house doesn't appear empty when not fully occupied.

▽卧室空间 Bedroom

设计要求是一个大型的、灵活的、高质量的家庭住宅，具有坚固感和材料的使用年限，并尽量减少维护，设计范围还包括为住宅打造新的基础设施。

The brief called for a large, flexible family home of a high quality with a sense of solidity and materials that age well with minimal upkeep. The scope of work also included building new facilities for the property managers. 

▽室内空间 Interior spaces

六间卧室容纳了一个成长中的家庭，可以在不同的天气条件下享受这些一系列的空间。因此，许多露台和庭院出现在体量之间或内部，提供不同程度的庇护。地下室的酒窖为葡萄酒提供了存储空间，包括在庄园内生产的葡萄酒。纹理和色彩的克制调色板与澳大利亚严酷环境中烧焦的木材和被阳光侵蚀的土壤相呼应，与青翠的修剪过的葡萄园形成鲜明对比。大胆的木炭色和灰白色的外观让位于更温暖更中性的室内色调，以补充客户大量的艺术收藏。

Six bedrooms accommodate a growing family with a range of spaces that can be enjoyed in differing weather conditions. As such a range of terraces and courtyards appear between, or within the timber volumes, providing varying degrees of shelter. A basement cellar provides storage for wine including that produced on the property. A restrained palette of textures and colours echo the burnt timbers and sun-bleached earth of a harsh Australian environment, contrasting against the verdant manicured vineyard. The bold charcoal and off-white exterior gives way to a warmer more neutral interior palette to complement the client's substantial art collection.

结构工程师和地基承包商在设计过程的早期就参与其中，以确保服务、开口和无框玻璃与地基的无缝结合。景观规划的制定，在实施后将进一步增加景观的隐藏和揭示的复杂性。

The structural engineer and rammed-earth contractor were involved early in the design process to ensure the seamless integration of services, openings and frameless glazing with the rammed earth.  A landscape plan was developed that, when implemented will add further complexity to the act of concealing and revealing views through and across the landscape.

木制凉棚和外部百叶窗被用作遮挡装置，在阳光穿过房屋时进行过滤。加厚的墙体允许深凹的窗户，遮挡夏季的阳光，并提供机会凹陷窗框，以实现热隔断。

Timber pergolas and external blinds are used as screening devices, mediating sunlight as it moves across the house. Thickened walls allow deeply recessed windows, shaded from the summer sun and provide opportunity to recess window frames to achieve a thermal break.

整个建筑都使用了低能耗的天然材料。所有的空间都是交叉通风的，每个建筑体量都可以根据房屋的居住方式独立调整温度，也是因为该建筑利用了夯土的保温性能。

Natural materials with a low embodied energy rating are used throughout the building. All spaces are cross ventilated and each building volume can be heated and cooled independently depending on how the house is occupied. The building utilises the insulation properties of rammed earth.
