Aaron Neubert Architects l 洛杉磯Echo山地別墅-設計風向

由美國Aaron Neubert建築事務所設計的洛杉磯別墅外觀立麵是以落地玻璃門窗為主，並通向一個露台，旨在充分利用周圍的景色。Echo別墅坐落於Elysian Fields，Elysian Fields是位於洛杉磯市區北部的丘陵地帶。

Aaron Neubert Architects（ANX）在這個緊湊的地基中，將住宅設計成三層，錯落有致。除了前麵住宅，在後院還有一個藝術家的工作室。居住區和獨立藝術家工作室的位置使其可以感知附近社區花園的棲息地，並可以欣賞到市區天際線和周圍群山的美景。

Working with a tight site, Aaron Neubert Architects (ANX) designed the home to stagger down the plot in three levels. In addition to the four-level home at the front of the site, there is also an artist’s studio tucked away in the back yard. The residence and detached artist studio are positioned to perceptually inhabit the adjacent community garden, and present views of the downtown skyline and surrounding hills.

在街道層麵，緊湊的平麵隻包含一個車庫和空間。一條走廊通往連接車庫和住宅主入口的樓梯，也可以通過另外的樓梯進入。客人無論是從車庫旁走廊還是室外步道都會進入一個視覺開闊的兩層高挑空客廳，這裏還有一個可以俯瞰城市和周圍山景的露台。一個Z字型樓梯將休閑客廳空間與廚房和餐廳區域連接在一起。別墅後麵的露台滿足私人欣賞的“內部景觀”，並由別墅本身和藝術家工作室組成。

At street level, the compact floor plan only contains a garage and technical spaces. A hallway leads to a staircase that connects the garage to the home’s main entrance, which is also accessible via an exterior stair. Whether they arrive from the garage or exterior walkway, guests enter the home into a dramatic, double-height living room, with a terrace overlooking the city and views of the surrounding hills. A switchback stair connects the entertaining space with the kitchen and dining area at the back of the property. The exterior space at the back of the house forms an “introspective landscape” for the owners to enjoy, and is framed by the home itself and the artist studio.

在頂層有三間臥室，其中兩間共享一個俯瞰城市的露台。400平方英尺（約37平方米）的工作室有白色簡潔的牆壁外觀和黑色的百葉窗，與主臥屋相匹配。居住者在室內可以透過落地玻璃門窗俯瞰街道景觀與花園。ANX希望讓室內空間獲得最大值的自然光。室內裝飾以明亮和簡單的色彩，人字形鋪裝的木地板與懸掛的幾何燈具呈現出溫暖氛圍。

On the top level, the architects included three bedrooms, two of which share an additional terrace overlooking the city. The 400-square-foot (37-square-metre) studio has a white exterior and dark slatted louvers, matching the main home. A floor-to-ceiling glass wall allows the occupants to overlook the property and garden from within. ANX sought to bring in as much natural light as possible. The interiors are decorated with a bright and minimal palette, with warmer accents such as wooden floorboards laid out in a herringbone pattern, and suspended geometric luminaires.
