*경관을 바라보다, 자연을 바라보다. [ Turnbull Griffin Haesloop Architects ] The Kentfield Residence

반응형

자연으로 한걸음 다가간다. 캘리포니아 북부 풍부한 자연환경 속에 자리한 하우스는 지속가능한 거주환경을 목표로 자연과 밀착된 건축을 구현한다. 언덕 위 샌프란시스코 베이를 포함하는 드라마틱한 경관은 거주자의 생활공간; 리빙 스페이스 속으로 글래스 슬라이딩 도어를 통해 유입된다. 그리고 다시 후면부에 위치한 소셜스페이스; 풀장이 위치한 후정으로 연속된다. 자연과 인공적인 건축물을 구분짓는? 유연한 콘크리트 옹벽은 기존 수목을 보호하는 동시에 건축과 자연을 연결하는 수단으로 리빙스페이스를 통해 유입된 전망을 잔잔한 수면 위에 주변 나무들과 함께 합성시킨다. 이러한 연속성은 옥상녹화를 통해 지형과 일체화 되는 건축의 제스쳐와 구조를 위해 사용한 콘크리트를 제외한 지속가능한 재료의 선택, 대지를 최소한으로 훼손하는 인공 구조물의 최소화를 통해 실현된다. 하우스의 가장 큰 선물은 자연 그리고 경관이다.

The Kentfield Residence by Turnbull Griffin Haesloop Architects is located in northern California. Set into a steep hillside with two volumes overlooking the panoramic views of Mount Tamalpais as well as San Francisco Bay, the top volume also opens up at the back to a sheltered pool and terrace, which are cut into the slope and protected by a retaining wall. The architects designed the retaining wall to curve inward, keeping and protecting preexisting trees while at the same time creating a beautiful contemporary and fluid line in harmony with the natural surroundings. Additionally the designers melded the home with the terrain by extending the flora onto a green rooftop, which further unites the structure to its surroundings.




By curving the retaining wall around the preexisting trees, the hillside does not present a standard scar where a home has been built. In fact, the home merges beautifully with the hillside.

Three distinct zones within the first volume hold the living room, then the kitchen and dining area, and finally the master suite. All of the zones within this C formation are covered with a green living roof but an additional pair of roofs over the kitchen and dining area also hold photovoltaic and solar hot water panels.




The pool runs the length of the social zone with access through floor to ceiling siding glass panels. There is also a more private access point on the far side that leads first to a poolside changing room, and then to either the master suite or the social zone.

Narrow - but long enough to swim laps, the pool is flanked on both sides by hardscaping. The lush grasses and shrubbery against the retaining wall give the terrace a definite park like atmosphere.

Inside the home, a large passage way runs the length of the house with the living room on one end. With floor to ceiling glazings on both sides of the living room, as well as clerestory windows above the lower ceilinged walkway and a stunning wood wall separating it from the dining area, it almost feels like the inside is still outside.

Just past the dining area is the kitchen. Designed to take full advantage of the majestic vistas, the kitchen features a double width island that holds the cooktop, sink and tons of prep space - allowing the chef to face outward to the views for the majority of the time.

Just past the kitchen, tucked into a corner of windows is a small eating area. It's the perfect place to enjoy a morning cup of coffee or a late night glass of wine.

Another fantastic place to sit and enjoy the view is an alfresco area inset between the living room and the dining area. Accessed by both, the view terrace runs from the living room all the way to the far end of the kitchen. On the opposite side of the kitchen is a short hall that leads first to a poolside changing room and then to the master bedroom. The master bedroom, in turn, leads to this amazing ensuite.


All of the living space within the home is contained within the upper volume, saving only the utility areas for the lower level. With a sheltered pool in a park-like setting on one side and those magnificent views on the other, the homeowners can enjoy a relaxing vacation style lifestyle all from within their own home.

By incorporating specific angles and exposures for the photovoltaic panels and by making use of the natural regulating of temperature by the earth, Turnbull Griffin Haesloop Architects have designed a home that is not only relaxing and luxurious but also eco-friendly.
