來自建筑師的介紹：這所為六口之家所設計的住宅位于新西蘭科羅科羅（Korokoro）一處高坡上，南面可以飽覽惠靈頓海港景色，其北面相對狹窄，但能俯瞰貝爾蒙地區公園的綠色峽谷。

業主之所以在此安家就是出于這里多樣的風景，戶外區域可以與綠色空間直接相連。 因為特殊的地理位置，房子同時受到南風和北風的影響，我們希望創造一個多樣的室外空間，在不同的風向下，在不同的時間里，都能有舒適的空間可選。我們設計了一個“H”形的平面，與中央起居室連通的南、北面都與外部空間相接。建筑北面的室外空間開挖到山坡上，然后種上植被，它會過濾空氣，并引導風流過屋頂。家中的臥室被設置在建筑的不同位置，因此可以看到不同的風景，有2個孩子的房間被安置在建筑的東端，緊貼著作為活動室的額外起居空間。

建筑由兩個主要的側翼及其之間的錯層組成。朝向西面的臥室坐落在主要起居室的上方，朝向東面的臥室和小起居室則安置在車庫的上方。繼續向西穿過草坪日后那里將會建一個客房。建筑的每個側翼的屋頂和連貫而下的東西墻體都覆以瓦楞彩色鋼板，屋頂在兩翼的連接處匯合。業主對建筑顏色很感興趣。設計師與業主一起探討了明亮色彩在起居室的應用以及臥室空間中對微妙的自然色彩的選擇。(Archdaily  翻譯：建筑學院-雪狼)

From the architect. The housewas designed for a family of 6 with children of varying ages. It sits on an elevated sitewith expansive views over Wellington Harbour to the south and a narrower view down to a green valley at the lower end of the Belmont Regional Park to the north.

The owners wereattracted to the site because of the different views, outdoor area and connection to green space.

Because of its elevation and location the house is hit by both the southerly and northerly winds, we aimed to create a variety of outdoor spaces to offer options for sitting in, in the different winds and at different times of the day. We created an ‘H’ shaped plan containing both south and north facing outside spaces that are connected through the very glazed central living room.

The north facing outdoor area is excavated into the hillside so that when planted it will filter and encourage the wind to flow over the top. Bedrooms are positioned in a variety of different ways to pick up the different aspects of view, with 2 children’s rooms at the east end of the house located around an activity area as extra living space.

There are 2 main wings to the house with a split-level between. To the west bedrooms sit over the main living areas and to the east, bedrooms and smaller living space sit over the garage. Further to the west across the lawn is a guest house built at a later date.

Each wing of the house is wrapped in a corrugated color steel sheath in the form of a roof that extends down the east and west walls and meets over the link-way joiningthe 2 wings.

The owners have an interest in colour. Togetherwith the clientswe have explored brighter colours in the sparer living spaces and more subtle natural colours in the bedroom areas.
