这是由O’Neill Architecture设计的岛上寓所，位于爱尔兰伊尼希尔岛。建筑师从简单的景观入手，逐渐考虑建筑轮廓、太阳朝向和借鉴传统设计。生活区域布置在建筑顶层，以欣赏莫赫悬崖（Cliffs of Moher）的壮丽景色。生活区域与阳台相连，从晨末到黄昏都能获得太阳辐射。从道路上可以看到寓所的一部分，创建了住所的隐私性，并形成围合的户外空间。由于悬崖的地形，盛行西风确保了户外露台在大部分天气条件下得以充分使用。此外，该项目在设计过程中和材料运用均考虑到可持续生态设计。

For this Island Dwelling on the Aran Islands, Co. Galway, we developed the designs from the simplicity of the landscape; working with the given contours, solar orientation and making reference to traditional design. The living area located on the upper level allows spectacular views of the Cliffs of Moher. It is connected to a terrace which is so orientated as to create a sun-trap and catch the sun from late morning until the last of the evening sun rays are obscured by the above lying escarpment. The views from the road are shielded by part of the house, creating the private and sheltered outdoor space. Fortunately the escarpment acts as a wind break for the prevailing westerly winds ensuring great use of this outdoor terrace in most weather conditions.

The house is located towards the north end of the site to place the maximum area of garden on the south side of the house which is also the direction of the finest views. The main entrance to the house is on the lower level with the two double bedrooms. A staircase, following the slope of the hill, leads upwards to the living level containing an open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area and third bedroom / study.Behind the main house of 104 square meters, accessed via the stairs landing, is a studio space of 30sqm with its own bathroom and private outdoor terrace. This design follows the contours of the land and at the same time creates an elevation from the north which is typical of rural traditional design.

In the garden some stone walls have been relocated. This allows two fields to be closed off and used for agricultural purposes such animal grazing, while the land surrounding the house can be used for domestic and ornamental gardening purposes. The car parking is placed to the north end of the site as not to intrude on the setting of the house in this beautiful landscape.

In this project we constructed the dwelling with a special honeycomb structure clay masonry building blocks. Clay is naturally a very good material at regulating humidity, absorbing and releasing moisture readily. The clay blocks work by being ‘breathable’, i.e. being able to transfer moisture from inside to outside, thus eliminating the need for the cavity used in ubiquitous concrete block walls. Whilst being an ecologically sustainable product it provides excellent thermal and sound insulation, breathable healthy living environments, long-lasting airtightness and fast construction. Given the high moisture content of the Island environment this product is ideal.
