住宅位于哈德逊山谷绝佳的地理位置上，是一对年轻夫妇的度假屋。

Old Stone House is designed for a young couple’s weekend retreat and it sits in a magnificent Hudson Valley 6.6 acre mountain top site.

▼住宅与美景，house and view

住宅设计初始，设计师将场地现存总面积2000平方英尺的两层半住宅推倒，仅留存它的三面石墙和地基。在此基础上，住宅总居住面积被锐减至1000平方英尺的单层空间，另含300平方英尺的扩建结构和地下室。居住者对原有的石墙情有独钟，因此保留旧墙壁并融入全新的设计成为此项目的重点。全新的屋顶和墙壁与现存石墙相互围合成谷仓外貌的居住空间，阳光从户外渗透入住宅内，营造出自然和谐的气氛。

As a phase one of the master plan, existing two and a half story, 2,000 sqft house was stripped down to its three masonry walls and foundation, then reduced to a 1,000 sqft single story structure with 300 sqft addition and basement. The client was fond of the existing stone wall commonly built in the region and requested to incorporate it into the new design. New roof and wall wrapping the existing stone structure to create a simple barn form filled with natural light and bringing the outside in became the concept of this house.

现存的石墙与其上巨大的黑色金属屋顶相称，该屋顶由木梁支撑。尽管材质不尽相同，住宅依然展现了整体性外观。阳极氧化铝板围合成门窗框架，进一步强调了住宅的新旧对比。

The existing rough stone texture is juxtaposed with black standing seam metal roof and stained cedar siding to form a monolithic appearance. Pronounced anodized aluminum plate composes the window and door opening surrounds and further emphasizes the new and the old.

住宅的主要空间为开放式结构，居住、餐饮及厨房逐一排开。16英尺高教堂式屋顶让空间更显宽敞。北向16英尺长5英寸宽的天窗，在日间引入柔和的自然光，南侧巨大的滑动门将室外风光收入其中。此外，住宅南外侧延展的地面露台，为居住者带来更加亲近自然的体验。双层高的墙壁为伸缩式投影屏幕预留了一个恰好的空间。舒适的坐席环绕而设，独立式壁炉搭配在一侧。餐桌的底座采用复古重金属，极具工业化外观的吊灯让这一区域的氛围更加浓重。立面的带型窗口为厨房捕捉了日落美景。涂白的石灰墙壁和灰色橡木地板，以及裸露在外的屋顶木结构，让空间氛围尽显沉着冷静。炭色涂漆与厨房木质家居为居住空间带来一丝暖意。

The main area has a loft like open plan containing living, dining and kitchen. It features a 16’ high cathedral ceiling with a 16’ X 5’ north facing skylight which disperses a soft glow throughout the day while the south facing large sliding doors provide a mountain view and access to the teak deck spanning the entire south façade. The double height feature wall has a concealed pocket for a retractable projector screen and is surrounded by a casual seating group with a freestanding wood burning stove. Vintage heavy iron legs are used for dining table and it adds an industrial appearance together with a custom pendant light over it. New ribbon window is inserted in the existing masonry opening capturing the sunset view into the kitchen area. The palette of white painted sheetrock walls, wire brushed gray oak floor, and stained exposed roof framing creates a calm contrast. Charcoal gray lacquer finish with shaker design inspired kitchen millwork adds overall warmth to the space.

素雅的卧室和洗手间被安置在东侧的附加结构之中。在这里，裸露的天花板结构被漆成白色。极简现代风设计为卧室捕捉了柔和的晨光。意大利人字纹大理石墙壁，定制橡木家具和手工艺灯饰，为居住生活带来平静舒心的环境。

Modest sized bedrooms and bathroom are grouped in the new structure on the east side. Ceiling framing is exposed and painted white at the bedrooms. This modern rustic design with carefully located windows collects soft morning light. Herringbone-patterened carrara white marble tile walls, custom oak vanity, and hand blown pendant lamp are composed for a calm and soothing effect in the space.
