架构师提供的文本描述。这个家坐落在皇后镇上方的一个斜坡上，可以看到壮观的景色，南到著名的恒河，到鲍文峰，再到城镇和下面的湖面。这位客户要求买一栋房子，这与附近的许多其他大型石膏房屋不同。

Text description provided by the architects. This home sits on a sloping site above Queenstown with spectacular views south to the Remarkable Ranges, to Bowen Peak and to the town and the lake below. The client requested a house unlike many of the other monolithic plaster houses in the neighbourhood.

这是一个黑色纹理雪松房子形成的相互关联的平行图，拥抱周围的地点，以最大化的空间，向北的房子。南面有戏剧性的全景景观，北面阳光充足的庭院借用了毗邻保护区的绿地。倾斜角度的飞机使它能够捕捉到多个方向的视野。

It is a dark textured cedar house formed by inter-linked parallelograms that hugs the perimeter of the site to maximise the space to the north of the house. It has dramatic panoramic views to the south and sun filled courtyards on the north that borrow the green space of the adjoining reserve. The oblique angled planes allow it to capture views in many directions.

内部是不可预测的。一个三角形的房间与雪松覆盖的墙壁形成了一个延伸到外面的庭院。明亮的橙色闪现在房子的核心。客厅里有一个小双高的空间，可以看到远处的高山。与此同时，这座房子在郊区环境中有着非凡的隐私。

The interior is unpredictable. A triangular room with cedar clad walls forms an extension to the outside courtyard. A Flash of bright orange is revealed at the snug core of the house. A small double height space in the living room captures the view to the tall mountains beyond. Meanwhile the house has remarkable privacy within its suburban context.
