该项目场地位于高级住宅区,是一个配有精致花园的大面积开发项目的一部分。在这块地缓缓坡向北面,可欣赏到北部和西部的山景。标本树散落在整个站点。所有已建立的树木被保留。该通路被放在相邻的一排橡树,和五个楔形部位形成一个窄众临街道路上的花园临街宽。房屋被设计成一个相互关联的组,每栋与地形和植被的特质相响应。不同之处在生活区和入口序列的设计上被特别强调。所有房屋遵守相同的一系列组织和朝向原则。每栋房屋都有一个从花园通往种植了地被植物屋顶的阶形坡道,在功能上和视觉上扩大了花园空间。

 

The site, located in an exclusive residential area, was part of a large estate with a well-developed garden. The land falls gently to the north with views of the mountains to the north and west. Specimen trees were scattered throughout the site. All established trees were to be retained. The access road was placed adjacent to a row of oaks, and the five wedge shaped sites form a narrow public frontage to the road with wide frontages on the garden. The houses were designed as an interrelated group, each responding to particularities of topography and vegetation. The differences were particularly stressed in the design of the living areas and entry sequences. All houses respond to a common series of principles in organization and orientation. Each house has a stepped ramp leading from the garden to roofs planted with ground cover, extending the garden space both functionally and visually.
