“SOL”是位于亚利桑那州凤凰城中城区的威洛历史区的一所充满活力的房子，这是一个以博物馆和越来越多的商业收藏品而闻名的地区。受西南城市民风的启发，当地建筑公司“牧场矿”设计了一座现代住宅，既拥抱又躲避阳光和城市。

“Sol” is an infill house in the Willo Historic District in midtown Phoenix, Arizona, an area known for its museums and growing collection of businesses. Inspired by the southwestern urban vernacular of the courtyard house, local architecture firm The Ranch Mine designed a modern home that both embraces and escapes the sun and the city.

“SOL”位于凤凰城发展的关键地带，距离一个轻轨站仅300码，这个轻轨站位于一个快速城市化的核心地带，但周围却是一个20世纪初的历史街区。这座2300平方英尺的新建住宅由Boxwell西南地区建造，不仅需要得到历史保护办公室的批准，而且还必须在一个不断发展的大都市的现实中进行探索。虽然城市化和历史保护可能通常是不一致的，但牧场矿队选择了寻找过去，以便为更城市的未来而设计。

“Sol” sits at the crux of development in Phoenix, just 300 yards from a light rail station in a rapidly urbanizing core, yet surrounded by an early 1900s historic district. This 2300 square foot, new build home built by Boxwell Southwest not only had to gain approval from the Historic Preservation Office, but it had to navigate the reality of a growing metropolis. Although urbanization and historic preservation may typically be at odds, The Ranch Mine team chose to look to the past in order to design for the more urban future.

这种四合院式的建筑风格是在17世纪末首次引入该地区的，非常适合居住在沙漠气候中的城市。它提供了一个逃离喧嚣的城市，同时也创造了一个阴影，自然冷却的室外房间。“SOL”是一座U形的四合院，屋顶向开阔的第四面突出。悬臂屋顶创造了一个宽敞的、有盖的室外起居区，不受阳光的照射，而开放的屋顶则允许微风穿过游泳池，蒸发使空气冷却，然后再通过文丘里效应将主要的居住空间通风。一步之遥，一个定制的弯曲混凝土长凳和火炉的额外接触提供了一个热身的地方，无论是在白天的阳光下懒洋洋地休息，还是在晚上的炉火旁休息。

The style of the courtyard house was first introduced to the region in the late 17th century and is ideal for urban living in a desert climate. It provides an escape from the bustle of the city while also creating a shaded, naturally cooled outdoor room. “Sol” is a U-shaped courtyard house with a cantilevered roof projecting towards the open, fourth side. The cantilevered roof creates a generous, covered outdoor living area, sheltered from the sun, while the open side allows breezes to flow across the pool where evaporation cools the air before it cross ventilates the main living space with help from the Venturi Effect. Steps away, the added touches of a custom curved concrete bench and firepit provide a place to warm up, whether by lounging in the sun during the day or by the fire at night.

房子包括城市，主要在三个地区，是由一个其他有效设计的盒子雕刻出来的。首先，前面的门廊是凹的，墙壁闪向街道，仿佛张开双臂欢迎邻里。一旦进入，在开阔的居住空间中的梁延伸到玻璃和角度向上发展中城的天际线。最后，为了在吸收凉爽的夜空的同时更好地看到天际线，一个完整的外部楼梯通向一个隐蔽的屋顶甲板，这是对西南地区的熟睡门廊的点头。

The house embraces the city primarily in 3 areas that are carved out of an otherwise efficiently designed box. First, the front porch is recessed with walls that flare out towards the street, as if to open its arms and welcome the neighborhood. Once inside, the beams in the open living space extend through the glass and angle up towards the developing midtown skyline. Finally, to get a better view of the skyline while soaking up the cool night sky, an integrated exterior stair leads up to a hidden roof deck, a nod to sleeping porches that are native to the southwest.

院落起源于一种创造绿洲的尝试，无论是来自沙漠气候中的阳光和高温，还是来自人口稠密地区的公众。随着西南沙漠的城市不断涌入，我们希望看到乡土风格的四合院复出，并充分发掘其现代诠释的潜力。住宅应该是一个避难所：不仅是挂帽子的地方，而且，如果你愿意的话，还可以让心脏恢复活力，“索尔”(Sol)。

The courtyard house originated as an attempt to create an oasis, whether from the sun and heat in desert climates, or the public in populated areas. As the cities of the desert southwest continue to infill, we hope to see the local vernacular form of the courtyard house return to prominence and the potential of their modern interpretations fully explored.  Homes should be a refuge: a place to not only hang one's hat but, if you will, rejuvenate the heart and "Sol".
