该项目旨在为业主打造一个远离城市喧嚣的宁静居所。房主在比勒陀利亚郊外购买了一块35公顷的未经开发的农田，拥有十分壮丽的景色，因此设计师需要在住宅与景观之间建立强有力的联系，同时打破惯有布局，使起居空间能够充分拥抱周边环境。
The principal requirement of the project consisted of creating a retreat for its occupants from a hectic urban lifestyle. The client obtained an underutilised 35 hectare farm outside of Pretoria with magnificent views. The house had to have a strong relationship with its immediate landscape and living spaces had to embrace the surroundings, breaking away from conventional space allocation.

由于房间主要只供两位使用者居住，他们要求将卧室和宽敞的起居空间放置在同一个楼层。客人卧室是独立的，不会与主体空间在交通上形成连接。住宅的体量部分被嵌入山丘，从而被倾斜的草坪和壮丽的自然美景所环绕，草地与一部分屋面也因此形成了流畅的连接。位于建筑核心部位的温室内摆放着一些植物，为室内空间增添了绿色的气息。起居空间均向温室的方向敞开，以充分享受周围的景色。
Since the main portion of the house would be inhabited by only two permanent users, they requested spacious volumes and dwelling spaces to be located on a single storey. Guest suites would be separate and not integrated into the circulation of the main house. Sloped natural grasslands and majestic views informed the design of a dwelling partially submerged in the hill. Veld grasses are allowed to flow continuously onto a portion of the roof and vegetation permeates the interior through a conservatory placed at the core of the building. Habitable spaces are oriented around the conservatory to make optimal use of surrounding views.
▼温室位于建筑的核心位置，the conservatory is placed at the core of the building
位于核心位置的温室是基于对环境的考量而特别设计的。由实体材料和半透明材料构成的屋顶板搭配以高效的隔热层，能够实现最佳的被动式气候控制。冬季，温室可以将阳光引入室内，同时使冷空气得以流出。通过开启特定位置的隔板，这种以被动方式获得的热量便可以被释放到相邻的起居空间当中。在夏季，自动化的玻璃幕墙可以使温室完全向户外敞开，从而创造出一个室外庭院，为住宅带来持续的空气对流。
At the heart of the building, the conservatory is intentionally designed to be context specific with solid and translucent roof sheeting and sufficient insulation to optimise passive climate control. In winter the conservatory is configured to allow solar penetration while keeping cold air out. This passive heat is released into the adjoining living spaces by opening the desired partitions. In warm summer months an automated glass façade opens up the conservatory to creating an outside patio which allows natural cross ventilation to flow constantly though the house.

此外，房屋还几乎能够实现能源和水的自给自足。建筑所使用的大都是结实耐用且维护成本低的材料，例如水泥砖、外露式钢结构和混凝土拱腹等。工业材料被广泛应用在壁橱、立柜和厨房等空间。
Energy and water requirements are met completely “off-grid”. Materials chosen for durability and low maintenance include cement washed bricks, exposed steel and concrete soffits. The industrial use of building materials continues to the interior closets, cupboards and kitchen.

透过温室的玻璃地板可以看到位于地下的酒窖，这里只能通过嵌入地面的活动门板进入。主卧室不同寻常地被设置在住宅的西侧，能够欣赏到茂密的树林和日落的美景，悬臂式的阳台和木质的窗板能够有效抵挡午后的日晒。余下的空间均朝向北方，同时搭配以伸出的屋檐，以确保一年四季的舒适气候。不经常使用的客人房间被单独设置在地面层，拥有独立的入口和室外空间。
Upon entry of the conservatory a glass floor allows a glimpse into the wine cellar below, accessible only via a seamlessly integrated trap door. The main bedroom is located on the challenging western side of the house to enjoy bird watching into the tree canopy and brilliant sunset views. The large overhanging patio and timber shutters assist in eliminating unwanted afternoon sun. The remainder of spaces remain oriented north with optimal overhangs to ensure climate comfort throughout seasons. Seldom used guest suites are separately treated on the lower ground area with a private entrance and outdoor space.
