Mary Gaudin拍攝新西蘭現代派作品
Mary Gaudin photographs little-known Werry/Francis Houses by New Zealand modernist John Scott
新西蘭中世紀現代家庭住宅的陽光空間由已故建築師John Scott設計，由攝影師Mary Gaudin拍攝。
Gaudin為新書拍攝了這些照片，這是她與建築師Giles Reid共同創作的一本小冊子。其中共36頁，包含了由新西蘭著名建築師在20世紀70年代設計建造的私人作品。
The sunlit spaces of a mid-century modern family home in New Zealand, designed by the late architect John Scott, are captured in these new images by photographer Mary Gaudin.
Gaudin took the photos for new book Werry/Francis Houses, a photo-essay booklet she created with architect Giles Reid. Comprising 36 pages, it offers an intimate portrait of a property built by the renowned New Zealand architect in the 1970s.
North Island項目由一棟主屋和一棟名為Werry and Francis的附樓組成，這是一座傳統的小屋建築，擁有傾斜的天花板、白色混凝土砌塊和木樑。
建築開門較高，直達天花板，而層高較低的區域是休息區，這形成了隱蔽的空間，使用者可以欣賞花園的景色。
Made up of a main house and an annexe, named Werry and Francis respectively, the North Island property riffs on traditional cottage architecture, with its pitched ceilings, white concrete masonry and timber beams.
Doors go up to the ceiling and it has low-ceilinged window seating areas which form retreat-like spaces offering views of the garden.
“它有一種氛圍。” Reid解釋說，他在幾年前訪問該地區時偶然發現了這座房子，“它完全沒有經過改動，而且保存完好。”
“它採用不起眼的材料建造而成，但設計巧妙。時間花在了設計上，這對我很有吸引力。”
"It had an atmosphere," explained Reid, who stumbled across the house while he was visiting the area a few years ago. "It was completely untouched and had been lovingly preserved."
"It is made from humble materials, but it is intelligently designed. Time has been spent on the design and this appealed to me a lot."
雖然Scott最有影響力的作品是Wellington的Futuna教堂，但他的大部分建築都是位於Hawke's Bay地區周圍的私人住宅。“這位建築師以設計建造壯觀的單身公寓而聞名。” Reid說。
Werry / Francis Houses位於Greytown以南197英里（約317千米）處。是Scott的晚期作品，但它從未被拍攝過。
Although Scott's most influential work is the Futuna Chapel in Wellington, most of his buildings are private homes located around the Hawke's Bay's area. "He was prolific and was known for creating robust, single houses," said Reid.
The Werry/Francis Houses sits 197 miles south, in the town of Greytown. One of Scott's later works, it had never been photographed before.
Reid是一位出生於新西蘭但成長在倫敦的建築師，他被其安靜、不張揚的特徵所吸引。他聯繫了在新西蘭長大的Gaudin，並建議她下次去拍照。
Gaudin以前拍過Scott的另一座建築Martin House，這些照片用在了其著作《Down The Long Driveway》之中，它涵蓋了本世紀中期的現代主義新西蘭住宅。
“我真的很佩服她的作品，它有個人感覺。” Reid說，“她以前拍過我的一些項目，我們已成為朋友。”
Gaudin的照片集中體現了建築的細節，從陽光照射的房間、門窗的影子等方面，同時也捕捉到鮮花盛開的野生花園。
Reid – a New Zealand-born architect based in London – was drawn to its quiet, unassuming character. He contacted Gaudin, who also grew up in New Zealand, and suggested she photograph it the next time she was in the country.
Gaudin had previously shot another of Scott's homes, the Martin House, for her book Down The Long Driveway, You'll See It, which covered mid-century modernist New Zealand homes.
"I really admire her work, it has a personal feel," said Reid. "She has photographed a number of my projects previously and we've become friends"
Gaudin's photographs focus on the details of the property, framing elements such as doors and windows from its sunlit rooms and shaded exteriors, but also capturing the lush green expanses of its flower-filled wild gardens.
照片結合了彩色與單色結合的方式，在中畫幅相機的膠片上，呈現柔和的感覺，但色彩濃烈，復古的棕色和內飾石膏呈現高對比度色調，而單色外部鏡頭充滿白光。
Gaudin曾經在這座建築中過夜，她稱這座房子很小，非極簡主義，很適合居住。
Shot in colour and silver-tinted monochrome, on film with a medium format camera, the photography has a soft feel, yet the colours are intense: the vintage browns and creams of the interiors are in high contrast tones, while the monochrome exterior shots are suffused in white light.
Gaudin, who was invited to stay overnight in the house by the owner Alison, described the house as small, non-minimalist and well lived-in.
主樓位於一條住宅道路上，是為80多歲的Alison和她的丈夫建造。附屬樓是為Alison的母親而設計。
“她和她的丈夫瞭解Scott的作品，並喜歡它，所以當他們進行項目開發時，便要求Scott來進行設計。” Gaudin說。
“這本小冊子是一種反思、一個插曲。” Reid補充道，“Scott花了很多時間在他的房子上，他覺得停下來看看是件愜意的事情。”
Set on a residential road, the main house was built for Alison, who is in her 80s, and her husband. The annexe was designed for Alison's mother.
"Her and her husband knew of Scott's work and loved it, and so when they bought a paddock to develop, they asked him to build their home," said Gaudin.
"The booklet is a reflection, an interlude," added Reid. "Scott spent a lot of time on his houses, it is nice thing to stop and look at."
