連接大海沿岸的鋼製連廊
Steel porch connects Coastal Retreat at Sea Ranch by Malcolm Davis
美國舊金山Malcolm Davis Architecture事務所將這座位於加州Sea Ranch社區的度假小屋分成兩個體量，分別面向不同的海岸線。
San Francisco firm Malcolm Davis Architecture has divided this holiday home at the Sea Ranch community in California into two cedar-clad volumes, which face out in different directions to overlook the rugged coastline.
Malcolm Davis Architecture事務所的海濱度假小屋位於Sea Ranch的草地上，這裡隸屬加州Sonoma縣的某個社區，該社區於上世紀60年代最初建造，面向太平洋狹長的海岸線。
Malcolm Davis Architecture's Coastal Retreat is located at the top of a grassy slope in Sea Ranch – a planned community in California's Sonoma County that was first established in the 1960s, and occupies a long and narrow coastal strip facing the Pacific Ocean.
這座住宅的使用者是一對來自歐洲的夫婦，建築分為兩個部分，其中一側是起居室，另一側是臥室，它們都有著大型開窗，充分利用了水域的景觀優勢。
Malcolm Davis Architecture事務所的項目說明中寫道：“每個體塊都最大限度地呼應了加尼福尼亞州的海岸景觀。”
Designed as "a modern getaway" for a European couple, the residence comprises two wings: one hosts the living areas and the other the bedrooms. These are set at angles and feature large windows to make the most of the elevated vantage of the water on the western side.
"Each wing is intentionally positioned to maximise views of the rugged California coast beyond," said Malcolm Davis Architecture in a project description.
建築的連接體覆蓋著耐風吹雨打的波紋鋼板，它將兩個體量連接起來。
建築師使用雪松面板將兩個體量包裹起來，這呼應了場地的原有穀倉建築。而這種材料也符合社區發展早期階段的基本建築美學。
A porch covered in corrugated steel that will weather over time slots in between, forming the entrance to the property and the connection between the two.
The firm chose to clad the two bigger volumes in cedar planks as a reference to the barns that occupied the site prior to the Sea Ranch. The material is also in keeping with the aesthetic that was used for the properties built in the early stages of the community's development.
在附近的另一座建築中，建築師選擇了同樣簡約的形態和當地材料。
Coastal Retreat度假小屋的體量略微突出，有著微微傾斜的屋頂和黑色窗框，看上去現代氣息十足。
Malcolm Davis Architecture similarly chose simple shapes and local materials for another home built nearby.
For Coastal Retreat, the studio also included protruding volumes, gently sloped roofs, and black frames placed around the different shaped windows to offer a more contemporary update.
建築師說：“每個體量都能讓人聯想起加州的傳統穀倉建築，但其中諸如材料和細部卻帶有現代氣息。”
建築的木質框架與鋼材也與自然地勢相呼應，其設計策略結合了20世紀中期的發展目標，即減少對環境的影響。另外，樓層平面也遵循這種理念，因此平面也與場地的坡度相適應。
"Each volume is reminiscent of the vernacular, barn-like structures found in this iconic California locale, but with a decidedly modern twist consisting of seamless material transitions and minimalist detailing," said the firm.
The woodwork and rough steel of the residence also matches the hues of the natural terrain, following an aim of the mid-20th-century development to make little impact on the environment. Also continuing this ethos are the split floor levels that "gently follow the site's steep topography".
為了避免1號公路的噪音影響到業主，場地的周圍種植了大片樹木，而這條公路是該地區的主要幹道，通向Sea Ranch。
因此在面向道路的立面上的開口較小一些，建築內的大部分自然光線則來源於面向海岸的大開窗。
Trees surrounding the plot are preserved to help shield the residence from the noise of Highway 1 – a major state route that runs straight through the Sea Ranch.
Smaller openings are placed on the walls facing the road to minimise this view. The majority of the natural light instead floods in from the windows overlooking the ocean.
住宅的內部材料非常簡單，在開放式起居空間，通高牆體覆蓋著膠合面板，並且還有能夠儲物的座椅區。
建築的其他表面為白色，與黑色窗框和木製壁爐形成對比。另外，一對明黃色座椅也給室內增添明亮的氣息。
Simple materials adorn the interior of the residence. In the open-plan living area, plywood covers the double-height walls at the back of the lounge and forms a seating nook with shelving.
Other surfaces are painted white to offset the black window frames and wood-burning stove. A pair of bright yellow chairs add a hint of colour to the room.
混凝土地面從休息區延伸至北側的廚房，然後與木製白色櫃檯相結合。
在工作室上方開有天窗，來自上部的光線投射在後方牆體上，而天窗的設置符合可持續設計理念，可以增強室內的保溫與自然降溫功能。
Concrete flooring continues from the lounge to form a pair of steps leading up to the kitchen at the northern end, which features wooden cabinets with white counters.
A skylight tops one of the rear workspaces, casting shadow lines across the back wall. This roof window is among a series that the firm included to aid a natural heating and cooling system, as part of a sustainable building strategy.
建築師說：“開窗的定位、太陽熱效益，以及混凝土面板的熱值，熱量通過天窗向外釋放，而冷空氣則從下部開口進入室內。”
在住宅中央的區域面向室外就餐區，這個空間的前側是連接向住宅的體量。
"The strategically positioned windows capture solar gain in concert with the thermal mass of the concrete floor slabs," said the firm. "The operable skylights release heat and circulate cool, fresh air through the lower openings."
The central portion of the residence opens onto a patio for outdoor dining, before connecting to the adjoining bedroom wing.
在第二個體量中，一系列的臺階通向位於上部樓層的臥室和浴室，而在一層同樣設置有客臥。這一樓層也設置有浴室，其內飾幾乎為黑色，這與空間的其餘白色部分形成對比。
樓梯連接著兩個樓層，其頂部有著面向海景窗口的書桌。
In this second volume, a sets of steps leads up to a bedroom and a bathroom on the ground floor, while another sleeping area is found on the first floor. This level also has a bathroom, which is nearly all black, contrasting the paler finishes across the rest of the residence.
At the top of the staircase that joins these two levels, there is a desk with a window to the ocean view.
Sea Ranch項目於1964年由開發商Al Boeke和Bay Area建築師群體共同建造，這裡是美國西海岸現代主義建築的最佳地區，並且將在2018年12月於SFMOMA 舉辦一場大型展覽。
The Sea Ranch was established in 1964 by developer Al Boeke and a group of Bay Area architects. Celebrated as one of the best collections of modernist architecture on America's West Coast, it forms the subject of a major exhibition opening at SFMOMA in December 2018.
諸如Malcolm Davis Architecture事務所設計建造的這個項目，該場地上還有其他的一些原有建築也在進行翻新改造工作。
其中有上世紀60年代由美國建築師Joseph Esherick設計建造的小屋，以及1974年由Ralph Matheson設計的住宅。

While new developments, like those by Malcolm Davis Architecture, can be found across the site, a number of the original properties have also recently undergone renovations.
Examples include a 1960s cabin built by American architect Joseph Esherick and 1974 residence designed by Ralph Matheson.
