这座单层住宅由三个亭子组成，由一系列玻璃走廊连接，力求在洛杉矶的中心地带创造一个住宅绿洲。西部红柏内衬的客房/车库亭子建立了一条基准线，刻画并连接了生活和睡眠亭子的两个较大的体量，由超大的炭色板、木条外墙和水泥板护墙板组成。深深的悬挑减轻了太阳的热量获取，并遮挡了阳光的照射。

Composed of three pavilions connected by a series of glasshallways, the single-story residence seeks to create a residential oasis in theheart of Los Angeles. The Western Red Cedar lined guest house/garage pavilionestablishes a datum line that carves and connects the two larger volumes of theliving and sleeping pavilions, comprised of oversizedcharcoal-colored board, batten extira and cement board siding. A deepoverhang mitigates solar heat gain and shields from the sun exposure.

一条水泥铺设的人行道，两旁是野草，通往前门，经过一个有橄榄树的宁静庭院。房子的入口位于玻璃走廊内，连接西边的起居亭和东边的睡眠亭，在与房子的其他部分接触之前，建立了一种亲密的尺度感。

A walkway of concrete pavers, lined by wild grasses leads to thefront door, passing a tranquil courtyard with olive trees. The entry to thehouse is located within a glass hallway connecting the living pavilion to thewest and the sleeping pavilion to the east, establishing a sense of intimatescale before engaging with the other parts of the house.

厨房、早餐室和家庭房之间的流动性，为不间断的娱乐而设计，创造了一种透明和轻盈的和谐。连接客人亭和起居区的玻璃走廊隐喻了地质历史，像桥一样横跨在一条曾经流经这里的古老小溪上。

The fluidity between the kitchen, breakfast room and family room,designed for uninterrupted entertainment, creates a harmony of transparency andlightness. A glass hallway connecting the guest pavilion to the living areamakes metaphorical reference to geological history, spanning bridge-like acrossan old creek that once ran through the property.

与许多洛杉矶标志性住宅围绕城市全景的定位不同，Laurel山居位于著名的桂冠峡谷山脚下，在郁郁葱葱的成熟树木的雄伟背景下，住宅为人们提供了一种隐蔽而内敛的体验。

Unlike many iconic Los Angeles homes that orient themselves aroundpanoramic city views, the Laurel Hills Residence is in the foothills of thefamed Laurel Canyon, where the property offers a secluded and inwardly focusedexperience with a majestic backdrop of lush and mature trees.

这里的整个场地都按照我们习惯的方式处理室内设计。周围的树木和小山被用作建筑的围护结构，而房子的外墙被调和为一系列的隔墙。不仅仅是外部空间，外部空间也被内化了。场地与室内空间相互连接，通过层次化的视线、装饰和流通连接的有目的安排，整个整体被激活。大窗户、天窗和袖珍门为住宅注入了自然光线，通过木地板和大理石台面反射光线。

The entire site here is treated as we are accustomed to treatinginteriors. The surrounding trees and hills are taken to be the buildingenvelope and the exterior walls of the house are reconceived as a series ofpartition walls. Instead of only externalizing interior spaces, exterior spacesare also internalized. The grounds are interlocked with the interior space andthe entire ensemble is activated by the purposeful arrangement of deeplylayered sight lines, vignettes and circulation connections. Large windows,skylights, and pocketing doors infuse the home with natural light, reflectingoff wooden floors and marble countertops.

在室外，40英尺长的游泳池和充足的空间为户外娱乐创造了一系列的户外房间。 炭色面板和西部红柏的简约调色板作为中性画布，与住宅的景观相得益彰，以加州本地物种为特色。

Outside,the 40-foot-long pool and ample space create a series of outdoor rooms foroutdoor entertaining. A minimalistpalette of charcoal colored panels and Western Red Cedar serves as a neutralcanvas, complementing the home’s landscape featuring California native species.

生活体量的大表面积为50多个太阳能电池板提供了足够的面积，使住宅可持续发展，使住宅不依赖城市电网资源。

Thelarge surface area of the living volume provides an enough surface for overfifty solar panels that allow the residence to be sustainable and remove itselffrom the city power grid.
