架构师提供的文本描述。这座位于纽约卡茨基尔的小房子是为住在纽约市附近的一家人设计的周末度假胜地。这所房子坐落在6英亩的土地上，但面积仅略超过1，000平方米。英国“金融时报”，这足以为家庭提供一个舒适的环境来享受网站的性质。这座房子的独特之处在于它的形式简单，实质上是4卷。这三个底座体积都是覆盖在内外的地面上的混凝土砌块中，第四卷用金属包裹在3个混凝土砌块上，包围房屋的主要居住空间。超大的红木窗完成了混凝土砌块体积之间的围护。
Text description provided by the architects. This small house located in the Catskills, NY is designed as a weekend getaway for a family living near New York City. The house sits on 6 acres of land, but is only a little more than 1,000 sq. ft., which is enough to provide a comfortable setting for the family to enjoy the nature of the site. What makes this house unique is the simplicity of the form which is essentially 4 volumes. The three base volumes are all clad in ground faced concrete block inside and outside, and contain the support spaces of the house. The fourth volume is clad in metal and sits on top of the 3 concrete block volumes to enclose the main living space of the house. The oversized mahogany wood windows complete the enclosure between the concrete block volumes.

在内部，白色金属体积是一个上升的天花板，在主空间是用胶合板完成的，顶部有可操作的天窗。胶合板的一部分被切割成板条，后面有一块毛毡织物，以便在其他坚硬的表面空间中软化声学。金属体积也在夏季提供天气保护和太阳能遮阳的大开口上方。现场唯一的公用设施是电力，因此，为了提供节能供暖，地热热泵与400英尺的地热能连接在一起。这为浇铸在抛光混凝土地板上的辐射管提供了热量。在夏天，地热系统转向管道系统冷却。节能的机械系统，加上屋顶悬垂，在夏季提供遮阳，并能在冬季获得太阳能，使这所房子非常节能。这座房子是探索卡茨基尔山遗址和自然环境的完美前哨。
On the inside, the white metal volume is a raised ceiling in the main space which is finished in plywood with operable skylights at the top. A portion of the plywood is cut into slats with a felt fabric behind to soften the acoustics in an otherwise hard surfaced space. The metal volume also overhangs the large openings providing weather protection and solar shading in the summer. The only utility at the site is electricity, so to provide energy efficient heating, a geothermal heat pump is connected to a 400 ft. well that provides the heat to hydronic radiant tubes cast into the polished concrete floor. In the summer, the geothermal system switches to a ducted system for cooling. The energy efficient mechanical system, along with the roof overhangs that provide shading in the summer and allow solar heat gain in the winter, help make this house very energy efficient. The house is the perfect outpost to explore the site and the natural setting of the Catskills.
