Australia, Macedon Ranges

这座建于20世纪70年代、坐落于马其顿山脉的砖木住宅，是陶艺家莎莉·朗兹（Sally Rounds）与其伴侣、室内设计师迪昂·霍尔（Deon Hall）共同生活与创作的空间。住宅坐拥约400英亩土地，既让两人与城市日常保持适度的距离，又能实现至墨尔本的便捷通勤。对自小在乡村长大的莎莉·朗兹（Sally Rounds）而言，这场迁居并非简单的住所更换，更是一场回归自然生活节奏的心灵归途。

This brick and wood house, built in the 1970s and located in the Macedonian mountains, is the living and creative space for potter Sally Rounds and her partner, interior designer Deon Hall. The house covers approximately 400 acres of land, allowing the two to maintain a moderate distance from the urban life while also enabling convenient commuting to Melbourne. For Sally Rounds, who grew up in the countryside, this relocation was not just a simple change of residence, but rather a spiritual journey back to the rhythm of natures life.

建筑完整保留了典型的20世纪70年代特质，拱形木质屋顶、三处壁炉，搭配砖石与板岩铺设的地面，这些未经现代化改造的细节，共同为空间奠定了稳定而温暖的基底。也正因这份原生的建筑肌理，各个房间得以与周边山林景观形成相对独立的视角关系，让自然景致成为室内空间的天然延伸。

The building has completely retained the typical characteristics of the 1970s, featuring arched wooden roofs, three fireplaces, and a ground paved with bricks and slate. These unaltered details, without any modern renovations, have collectively established a stable and warm foundation for the space. It is precisely because of this original architectural texture that each room can form a relatively independent perspective relationship with the surrounding mountainous landscape, allowing the natural scenery to become a natural extension of the interior space.

因以租住方式使用住宅，两人未对建筑结构做任何调整，转而以园艺的方式温柔介入环境。他们引入大量本土耐候植物，让住宅在草木的生长中逐步融入自然语境；室内陈设则着重强调材质与色调的连续性，凝练出他们对意大利中世纪设计与日本美学的共同偏好。克制却不冷淡的空间处理，让这里既有生活的温度，又彰显着鲜明的个人特征，自然容纳下三只德文雷克斯猫菲尼克斯（Phoenix）、阿斯特罗（Astro）、平古（Pingu），以及斗牛梗露娜（Luna）的日常活动，让人与宠物的相处自在舒展。

By renting out the house, the two did not make any alterations to the building structure. Instead, they gently intervened in the environment through gardening. They introduced a large number of native plants that are resistant to weather conditions, allowing the house to gradually blend into the natural environment as the plants grow. The interior furnishings emphasized the continuity of materials and colors, highlighting their common preferences for Italian medieval design and Japanese aesthetics. The restrained yet not cold spatial arrangement gives this place both the warmth of life and distinct personal characteristics, naturally accommodating the daily activities of three German Rex cats, Phoenix, Astro, and Pingu, as well as the bulldog Luna. It allows for a relaxed and comfortable interaction between humans and pets.

乡居生活也悄然重塑了两人的工作方式。莎莉·朗兹（Sally Rounds）在保留科林伍德工坊的同时，于住宅内打造了更为宽敞的陶艺工作空间；迪昂·霍尔（Deon Hall）也拥有了专属的独立工作室与办公室。在这片天地间，光线的朝暮变化、地形的自然起伏、时间的缓慢流动，都成为日常经验的一部分。这座马其顿山脉的砖木住宅，也因此超越了居所的本质，成为一场持续展开、与自然共生的生活实践。

The rural life has also quietly transformed the working methods of the two. Sally Rounds, while maintaining the Colinwood workshop, created a much larger pottery working space within her residence; Deon Hall also has his own dedicated studio and office. Within this space, the changing of day and night light, the natural undulations of the terrain, and the slow flow of time all become part of the daily experience. This brick and wood Macedonian mountain house thus transcends the essence of a dwelling and becomes a continuous, symbiotic life practice in harmony with nature.
