架构师提供的文本描述。RimRock的特殊形式-一种T形结构-响应于它所处的虚张声势的独特排版。在悬崖的边缘,这座房子横跨水塘的两侧,顶部是一片坚硬、缓慢冷却的火山玄武岩的稳定露头。“边缘岩”是指这种地质事件,在高原或峡谷的上边缘有一堵陡峭的岩壁。房子下面的接缝是一条自然的、已经存在的道路,动物可以利用它在山和河之间移动。即使房子现在这里,他们仍然可以畅通无阻地移动。由于景观的敏感性,以及独特的气候、太阳和季节条件,需要对家园进行仔细的定位和考虑材料。
Text description provided by the architects. The particular form of Rimrock – a T-shaped structure – responds to the unique typography of the bluff upon which it is situated. At the edge of a cliff, the house straddles two sides of wash atop a stable outcropping of tough, slow-cooled volcanic basalt. The name “rimrock” refers to this type of geological occurrence, with a sheer rock wall at the upper edge of a plateau or canyon. The seam below the house is a natural, preexisting path for animals, who use it to move between the mountains and the river. Even though the house is now here, they can still move unimpeded. The sensitive nature of the landscape, as well as it’s unique climatic, solar and seasonal conditions called for careful positioning of the home and consideration of materials.

提高5200 SF的房子以上洗,发挥了许多功能,包括保存现有的动物路径。了解到冬季风向的变化会产生大量的积雪,在地面上方盘旋的房屋可以使用全高的窗户,最大限度地利用180度的视野俯瞰河滨州立公园和北斯波坎谷、山脉、森林、河流、城市-没有堆积如山的直接积雪。内部保持开放,但也受到保护。
Raising the 5,200 SF house above the wash serves many functions, including preservation of the existing animal path. Knowing that changing wind patterns in the winter can create massive snow drifts, hovering the house above the ground plane allows the use of full-height windows to maximize 180-degree views overlooking Riverside State Park and north Spokane—valley, mountains, forest, river, city—without piles of snow accumulating directly against them. The interior remains open but also protected.

由此产生的设计,扭转了一个典型的透明度,人们可能期望在一个家庭大量的玻璃。建筑物的上部,通常是最透明的,实际上是更私密的。越低的部分-越公开的家庭和聚集的区域-具有更高的透明度,并且包含跨越游戏路径的桥梁元素。这一透明的主层,由厨房、餐厅和生活区组成,介于悬崖边缘的景色和避难所之间。
The resulting design reverses the typical transparency one might expect in a home with a large amount of glazing. The upper portion of the building, which is typically most transparent, is actually more private. The lower portion―the more public family and gathering area―has more transparency and contains a bridge element that spans across the game path. This transparent main level, which consists of the kitchen, dining and living area, mediates between the prospect and the refuge at the edge of the cliff.

房子的上部是最私密的,也不像下层那么透明,可以看到更密集的景色。在整个家庭的亲密感,使业主从一个壮观的,但也是侵略性的环境,由于该地区的强大风暴,天气模式和季节撤退。
The upper part of the house is the most private and is less transparent than the lower level with views directed towards tighter vistas. A sense of intimacy throughout the home allows the owner to retreat from what is a spectacular, yet also aggressive environment due to the region’s powerful storms, weather patterns and seasons.

坚固耐用的建筑材料,主要是软钢和玻璃,被用来抵御恶劣的环境条件,并将自然的天气。该钢面板和结构是90%-95%的再生材料由业主当地来源。所有窗户上都有自动的、经季节调整的外部遮阳,这大大减少了冷却所需的能量。通过将屋顶上的所有雨水径流收集到一口干井,缓慢地将水渗透回地下水系统,从而防止了场地的侵蚀。
Tough, durable building materials, mostly mild steel and glass, were used to stand up to harsh environmental conditions and will weather naturally. The steel paneling and structure is 90-95% reclaimed material locally sourced by the owner. There are automatic, seasonally adjusted exterior shades on all windows, which significantly decrease the energy used for cooling. Erosion on the site is prevented by collecting all rainwater runoff from the roof into one dry well that percolates the water slowly back into the groundwater system.
