Conceived as a collection of contemporary farm buildings gathered under one expansive gable roof, the house’s form is immediately provocative of the traditional farming structures that once inhabited the local area. This elegant architectural response places the old machinery shed (garage), drive through loading zone, and main farmhouse (complete with a central farmhouse kitchen and wood burning stove) in one singular structure and deftly satisfies the three distinct requirements of the brief in one swift, effortless movement.

这座房子被认为是聚集在一个宽阔的山墙屋顶下的现代农舍的集合，它的形式立即激发了曾经居住在当地的传统农耕结构。这种优雅的建筑反应将旧的机械棚(车库)、穿过装货区的车道和主农舍(配有中央农舍厨房和燃木炉)置于一个独特的结构中，巧妙地以一种快速、轻松的方式满足简短的三个不同要求。

The building’s muted material palette subtly and effectively reflects the surrounding environment, echoing buildings of the past. The spotted gum exterior cladding is left to naturally patina, relying on its innate aptitude to develop character and camouflage over time.

建筑物的静音材料调色板巧妙而有效地反映了周围的环境，与过去的建筑相呼应。斑点状口香糖的外部包层是自然形成的，依靠其天生的才能，随着时间的推移，形成性格和伪装。

In line with the project’s humble architectural intent, the building plan is reassuringly simple. It’s elongated; gable-roofed structure is neatly divided into parts according to the daily patterns and needs prescribed by a low-tech, country life.

与该项目简陋的建筑意图相一致，建筑方案简单得令人放心。它是拉长的；山墙屋顶结构按照低科技的乡村生活所规定的日常模式和需求，被整齐地分成几部分。

The Trentham Long house is designed to fit around the lifestyle choices associated with living in this location and environment at this particular stage of their lives. The owners are not extravagant or wasteful people, they live with a careful intent behind all they do and their family is very important to them. The house is largely self sufficient, heating costs are low, cooling costs are non-existent and the extended family can be accommodated at all times.

特伦瑟姆长屋的设计是为了适应生活方式的选择与生活在这个位置和环境，在这个特殊的阶段，他们的生活。业主不是奢侈或浪费的人，他们生活在他们所做的一切背后有一个谨慎的意图，他们的家庭对他们来说是非常重要的。房子很大程度上自给自足，暖气成本低，冷却成本不存在，大家庭可以随时容纳。

This Great Dividing Range, once gold mining town is now a quiet country escape whose inhabitants relish its crisp country air and quiet streets. Surrounded to the north, east, and west by neighbouring properties and to the south by a main road, Trentham Long House is positioned centrally on the block; with almost equal parts rear and front garden. The design contends with the precarious task of maximising idyllic views whilst maintaining privacy by retreating from its boundaries. Its careful placement enhances selected vistas whilst also defining a quiet, private realm set back from the public face of the street.

这个曾经是黄金开采小镇的大分界线，现在成了一个宁静的乡村逃亡之地，这里的居民享受着清新的乡村空气和宁静的街道。Trentham Long House位于北、东、西被邻近的地产所包围，南面被一条主干道所包围，它位于街区的中央，后面和前面的花园几乎相等。该设计与不稳定的任务，最大限度地发挥田园诗的观点，同时保持隐私退出其边界。它的精心布置，增强了选定的景观，同时也定义了一个安静的，私人的领域倒退从公众的面貌街道。

To satisfy the clients brief requirements the house needed to be able to transform from a house for a couple to a home for extended family, to be low cost to live in and maintain. It had to be low cost to construct and also easily built be the owners and their builder son. In addition to satisfying these requirements the client’s are delighted by the volume of the living space created and how with proper siting, use of glazing and thermal mass that the house is comfortable in all seasons.

为了满足客户的简短要求，房子需要能够从一对夫妇的房子转变为大家庭的住宅，低成本的居住和维护。它必须是低成本的建设，也容易建成业主和他们的建设者的儿子。除了满足这些要求外，客户还对所创造的居住空间的体积感到高兴，以及如何在适当的位置、使用玻璃和热质量，使房子在所有季节都是舒适的。

The project team consisted of the client, the builder and architect. The client’s son, Mike, is a skilled and diligent builder located in Melbourne and the project was developed in tandem with his input as to how it would be built. Mike and his father had also built the owners’ previous house so they came to the process well informed but open to the opportunities of good design. Critically however the clients were now new grandparents and were determined that Mike spend a minimum time away from his new family through a design that minimised time on site and complexity.

项目团队由客户、建造者和架构师组成。客户的儿子Mike是一位技术娴熟、勤奋的建筑工人，位于墨尔本，该项目是与他对如何建造该项目的投入一起开发的。迈克和他的父亲也建造了业主的以前的房子，所以他们来到这个过程，充分了解，但开放的机会，好的设计。然而，至关重要的是，这些客户现在都是新的祖父母，他们决心让迈克尽可能少地离开他的新家庭，通过一种将现场时间和复杂性降到最低的设计。

The use of singular form of the extruded gable form makes reference to the agrarian building in the area but also responded to the limited budget for what needed to be a highly insulated and low maintenance home. Selection of the finishes and materials were determined by budget, durability and thermal performance. Through conservative use of building methodology for the majority of the building the cathedral ceiling and slate floor to the main living areas were accommodated within the limited budget.

单一形式的挤压山墙形式的使用参考了该地区的农业建筑，但也响应了有限的预算，需要一个高度绝缘和低维护家园。油剂和材料的选择取决于预算、耐久性和热性能。通过保守地使用建筑方法，大多数建筑物的大教堂天花板和石板层到主要生活区都是在有限的预算范围内容纳的。

Although only about an hour north of Melbourne the climate varies quite dramatically. Located at an altitude of 700 metres the winters are distinctly cold with a mean daytime temperature of 7.6 degrees, snow is not uncommon in winter. The clients lived in the area prior to building and were well aware of the need to design a warm house and one that was not expensive to keep warm. The Trentham Long house is orientated east west and although the preferable views are to the south, glazed openings along this façade were kept to a minimum. The high north facing glazing is setback off the face of the façade to provide shade from midday summer sun. In summer the glazing is shaded by custom sliding screens to help block lower morning and afternoon sun. The living spaces flooring is a stone tile on a concrete slab providing thermal mass, that the owner attests provides passive evening heating in summer and winter. Any supplementary heating required in winter is from a high efficiency fireplace. All rainwater run off from the roof is captured and stored in large water tanks providing all water required both within in the house and irrigating the garden.

尽管距离墨尔本只有一个小时的路程，但气候变化很大。在海拔700米处，冬季明显寒冷，白天平均气温为7.6度，冬季雪并不少见。这些客户在建房前就住在这个地区，他们清楚地意识到有必要设计一套温暖的房子，而且保暖并不贵。Trentham Long房子是东西向的，虽然南面是比较好的风景，但是沿着这个门面的玻璃洞口被保持在最低限度。北面的高高的玻璃遮挡了正午夏日的阳光。在夏天，玻璃是由定制的滑动屏幕阴影，以帮助遮挡较低的上午和下午的太阳。起居空间地板是一块提供热质量的混凝土板上的石砖，业主在夏季和冬季提供被动的夜间供暖。冬季所需的任何辅助供暖都来自高效率的壁炉。所有从屋顶流出的雨水都被捕获并储存在大型水箱中，提供室内所需的所有水，并灌溉花园。
