现代温馨别墅丨Queen Anne Home

当一个有两个孩子的年轻家庭在西雅图的安妮女王山买了一个破旧的房子时，设计过程的第一步是考虑原始房子的哪些元素可以被抢救、再利用或保存，以努力将新项目与过去联系起来。考虑因素包括重复使用基础的部分，回收旧的结构梁，甚至移植大灌木。但考虑到现有结构的状况以及对现有斜坡进行改造以增加院子的可达性的愿望，确定没有多少可以实质性地重新利用。这让客户和设计团队可以自由地重新构想整个作品。  

When a young family with two kids bought a home in poor shape on Seattle’s Queen Anne Hill, one of the first steps in the design process was to consider what elements of the original house could be salvaged, reused, or saved, in an effort to link the new project to the past.  Considerations included reusing parts of the  foundation, reclaiming old structural beams, or even transplanting big shrubs.  But given the condition of the existing structure and the desire to regrade the existing slope to increase the accessibility of the yard,  it was determined that not much could be repurposed in a substantial way.  This gave the clients and design team the freedom to reimagine the whole site.  

客户喜欢现代细节，但也希望房子能正式适应传统的住宅区。在早期的设计迭代中，Allied8 考虑使用带有屋顶平台的平屋顶，以最大限度地利用室外空间和视野，但客户选择优先考虑与后院的连接，而不希望两个室外空间争夺他们的注意力。山墙屋顶与上下文相关，还支持安装大量太阳能电池板。最大化倾斜场地提供的等级变化，三层房屋在主层有一个开放的平面图，包括厨房、餐厅和客厅，楼上的卧室层包括主卧室和浴室，两间卧室共用第二间浴室. 楼下区域包括带浴室的客房、洗衣房和带吧台的媒体室，葡萄酒储存和弹球机。一个堆叠的直线楼梯作为所有流通的脊柱。鉴于房子是三层楼，能够轻松地从一层楼移动到另一层楼（尤其是带着小孩）是最重要的。开放的楼梯提供了空间的分离和连接。  

The client loved modern detailing, but also wanted the house to fit formally with the traditionally residential neighborhood.  In early design iterations, Allied8 considered a flat roof with a roof deck in order to maximize outdoor spaces and views, but the clients opted to prioritize their connection to the backyard, not wanting two outdoor spaces competing for their attention.  The gable roof is  contextual and also supported the installation of a big array of solar panels.  

Maximizing the grade changes afforded by the sloped site, the three-level house has an open floor plan at the main level including  kitchen, dining, and living, a bedroom level upstairs including primary bedroom and bathroom, and two bedrooms that share a second bathroom. The downstairs area includes a guest room with bathroom, a laundry room, and a media room with wet bar, wine storage and pinball machines. A stacked straight-run stair functions as the spine of all circulation. Given that the house is three stories, being able to move easily from floor to floor (especially with small kids) was paramount. The open stair provides both a separation of spaces and a connection across.

在外面，团队增加了一个独立的车库，可以从相邻的小巷进入。斜坡是一个很大的挑战，因为小巷的坡度比前街低得多。此外，狭窄房产的短边坡度发生了巨大变化，使单层后院的创建变得复杂。由于车库的等级和位置，家人主要从最低层穿过院子到达和离开房子。因此，该团队致力于设计一个与坡度变化一起使用的硬景观，以提供从主层到后院的良好流动。该团队在 p 中工作以了解整个站点的等级变化，并仔细考虑挡土墙如何影响预算。结果是一组梯田挡土墙，无论是在后面还是在前面——房子的设计都是从人行道的边缘开始的。Allied8 将场地设计拆分为两个主要层次：一个供孩子们玩耍的草皮运动场区，以及一个供大人聚集的露台区。 

Outside, the team added a detached garage accessed from the adjacent alley. The slope was a big challenge, as the grade of the alley is much lower than the front street. In addition, the slope changes dramatically across the short leg of the narrow property, complicating the creation of a single-level backyard.  Due to the grade and location of the garage, the family primarily arrives at and leaves the house from the lowest floor, crossing the yard. Accordingly, the team worked to design a hardscape that works with the change in grade to provide a nice flow from the main level to the back yard. The team worked in p to understand the changes in grades across the site, and carefully considered how retaining walls can impact a budget. The result is a set of terracing retaining walls, both in the back and in the front–the house design starts at the edge of the sidewalk. Allied8 split the site design so that there are two primary levels: a turf playfield area where the kids can play, and a patio area where the grown ups gather.   

另一个场地考虑因素是整个场地的雨水收集。该团队选择将其收集在院子的最低角落，然后泵入房屋南侧的一个大型生物电池中。这个生物电池没有视觉上的陈述，但它是一个复杂的系统。外部后院摊铺机是可渗透的，草皮组件也是如此，团队沿着山墙屋顶的南侧安装了太阳能电池板。

Another site consideration was the collection of stormwater across the site. The team opted for it to be collected at the lowest corner of the yard and pumped into a big biocell at the south side of the house. This biocell doesn’t make a visual statement, but it is a sophisticated system. The exterior backyard pavers are permeable, as is the turf assembly, and the team installed solar panels along the south side of the gable roof.
