皮特曼·道威爾住宅區(qū)位于洛杉磯以北24km，鄰近洛杉磯國(guó)家森林，占地2.43hm2。此住宅區(qū)原規(guī)劃是理查德·努特拉設(shè)計(jì)的一個(gè)山體住宅區(qū)，共有3層可建設(shè)地塊，但最終只建了努特拉1952年的舒如尼克住宅。一個(gè)廣闊的沙漠花園和露天亭占據(jù)了第二塊地。而今，皮特曼·道威爾住宅建造在最后一塊土地上，經(jīng)過(guò)彎曲的道路可以抵達(dá)在斷崖邊的舒如尼克住宅。

一個(gè)現(xiàn)代主義地標(biāo)的當(dāng)代詮釋

從第一棟住宅的建設(shè)至今有50年了，其間，洛杉磯在不停地成長(zhǎng)和改變。居住在第一棟住宅中的藝術(shù)家決定在這個(gè)地段上建第二棟住宅。他們?cè)O(shè)想的是一個(gè)能容納現(xiàn)代化生活方式并能體驗(yàn)景觀(guān)環(huán)境的住所。

新的七邊形住宅設(shè)計(jì)的靈感來(lái)自環(huán)環(huán)相扣的多邊形，這是由很多對(duì)角切片形成的。圍合的建筑物上具有一系列精心設(shè)計(jì)的切口，朝向不同方向的景觀(guān)；東北墻上有一個(gè)橢圓形的天窗；位于入口的一道墻體在穿過(guò)住宅之后再次從建筑中穿出，限定了起居室外的南向陽(yáng)臺(tái)。

室內(nèi)的生活空間通過(guò)一個(gè)變化的序列展開(kāi)，形成了住宅內(nèi)和望向外面山谷的多重框景。一系列不平行的墻壁將空間斷裂、延伸，沒(méi)有一個(gè)房間是完全圍合的。該設(shè)計(jì)中沒(méi)有門(mén)，私密感是通過(guò)層疊的空間和限定的視線(xiàn)獲得的。無(wú)門(mén)的構(gòu)思讓人有空間延續(xù)的體驗(yàn)，從一個(gè)房間流動(dòng)到下一個(gè)房間，創(chuàng)造出一種區(qū)域的層疊感。住宅的中心是一個(gè)不規(guī)則形狀的中庭，其邊界融入了鄰接的起居空間。這樣的設(shè)計(jì)使移動(dòng)和視覺(jué)聯(lián)系得以延展，回應(yīng)了建筑的離心特質(zhì)和周?chē)沫h(huán)境背景?！?/p>

Located 15 miles north of Los Angeles at the edge of Angeles National Forest, the Pittman Dowell Residence sits on 6 acres of land originally planned as a small hillside subdivision designed by Richard Neutra. Although three level pads were originally cleared, only one house, Neutra's 1952 Serulnic Residence, was built on the site. An extensive desert garden and outdoor pavilion occupies the second clearing. Today, the Pittman Dowell Residences sits on the last clearing, circumscribed by the winding driveway which leads to the Serulnic Residence on the bluff above.

A Contemporary to A Modernist Landmark

Five decades after the original house was constructed in this once remote area, the city has grown around it with an accompanying change in both the visual and the physical context. While living in the original house, the artist owners decided to build a second residence on the site.They envisioned a home that would accommodate contemporary lifestyles and reflect an evolving attitude about the relationship between buildings and the landscape.

Inspired by geometric arrangements of interlocking polygons, the new residence takes the form of a heptagonal figure whose purity is confounded by a series of intersecting diagonal slices though the space. The emphatically closed object continuously re-frames and contextualizes its views through a series of precise, conscientious incisions at its shell; an oval window folds over the northeast wall to become a skylight; the splayed entry walls move through the house and emerge outside again to define a southern balcony off the living room.

A Perspectival Collapsing of Space

Inside the house, living spaces unfold in a shifting array of framed views of spaces within the house and vistas out to the valley below. These perspectival manipulations begin at the level of the room, collapsing and distending space through a series of non-parallel walls that never fully enclose the space of a room. Instead of using doors, a level of privacy is maintained by layering space and limiting view access. The unbounded nature of each room lends itself to a spatial continuity of experience, allowing each room to bleed or spill over into the next, creating an overlap of zones.An irregularly shaped void caught within these intersections creates an outdoor room at the center whose edges blur into the adjoining living spaces.In such ways, movement and visual relationships expand and contract to respond to the centrifugal nature of the building and context beyond. □
