跳脱于城市樊笼之外，寻找内心深处的安宁；“宾临城”作为这份情感的物化，寄托着我们对于乡村的怀念、对于自然的向往。

Break out of the city cage, to find inner peace, “Bin Lin cheng”as this emotional materialization, reposing our nostalgia for the countryside, for the natural yearning.

项目位于湖州市埭溪镇茅坞村，依山而建，竹林环抱。我们把视角抬高，有趣地发现，村庄与山林恰好在此相遇。

老宅由三栋楼组成，在数十年的风雨飘摇中坍塌了大半，颤巍巍地坐在山脚下，宁静、祥和。

场地南侧的小道是村里的主要交通路线，沿着道路再往北走，便是当地有名的天字古道。山溪沿着古道蜿蜒而下，在老宅前交汇出一块三角形的空地。两棵硕大的榉树偏于一角，枝繁叶茂。

The project is located in Maowu village, Daixi town, Huzhou city, which is surrounded by bamboo forest and built on the mountain side. We raise the angle of view, it is interesting to find that the village and the forest just meet here.

The old house is composed of three buildings, which collapsed in the wind and rain for many decades. It is sitting at the foot of the mountain, quietness and peace.

The path on the south side of the site is the main traffic route of the village. Further north along the road is the famous tianzi ancient road in the area. The mountain stream winds down along the ancient road and meets a triangular open space in front of the old house. Two huge waterelms stood at one corner, with luxuriant foliage.

初入老宅，没有文物似的古韵，也无法用精美来形容。

岁月留在老屋中的气息，弥散在陈旧的木屋架之间；老灶台边残留的烟渍、夯土墙上斑驳的竹影、老木门咯吱的声响、不经意间低声的犬吠，模糊地拼凑出一幅质朴的生活画面，记录下属于乡村的故事。

这些逐渐被遗弃的农房代表了独具地方色彩的传统乡村建筑文化，他们跟自然的关系远比当下的钢筋混泥土来得和谐。

The beginning enters the old house, does not have the cultural relic like ancient rhyme, also can not use the exquisite to describe. The smell of age in the old house, spread among the old wooden frame, the smoke stains on the edge of the old stove, the mottled bamboo shadows on the rammed earth wall, the creaking of the old wooden door, the dog barking in a low voice, vaguely put together a simple picture of life, recorded under the story of the country. These gradually abandoned farmhouses represent a unique local culture of traditional rural architecture, and their relationship with nature is far more harmonious than the current concrete and steel.
