这座现代乡村住宅位于多伦多郊外的一片连绵起伏的田野上，其设计灵感来自用于分隔农田的石砌墙壁。

Resting on a rolling field, this modern rural country home outside Toronto was inspired by the stone walls that were used to separate farmer’s fields.

▼建筑外观，exterior view

住宅的一部分体量悬挑在广阔的景观之上。入口处的低矮石墙营造出颇具私人感的氛围，间隔分布在墙上的半透明玻璃盒体则透漏出室内的功能空间，同时使墙壁不显得单调。这面墙壁构成了建筑中的一个关键元素，一系列南向的玻璃体量能够为室内引入壮丽的风景。住宅的朝向尽可能地降低了其对周围环境的影响，同时最大化了建筑在场地中的边界，以获得充分的自然光。屋顶看上去如同漂浮在石墙的上方，为另一侧的立面带来形式感更强且更为动态的观感。

Stouffville Residence is grounded in the earth while being cantilevered over a vast landscape. The stone entry wall, low and private, hints program through a series of translucent glass boxes punching through the otherwise monolithic wall. This wall acts as a key organizational element anchoring a series of glass volumes that open up to the south of the building overlooking the property and offering commanding views of the landscape. The orientation of the project intends to minimize the building’s impact on the area while maximizing site lines and access to natural daylight. The roof seemingly floats above the stone entry wall suggesting a more gestural and dynamic roof on the dwelling’s other face.
