  • The concept home, which seems to almost propel off the overhang, makes the property look as if it is an extension of the landscape. On their website, the architects say that their aim is to create 'an absolute connection with the ocean.'

    这座概念房屋悬挂着的主体部分似乎马上就要掉下来了,让这座房屋看上去像是大自然的一部分。房屋的建筑师们在自己的网站上表示,他们的目标是创建与海洋的绝对联系。

    The five-storey home will be made from prefab modules1 which are arranged in a vertical2 floor plan.

    建筑师们将会预先搭建出这座五层住宅的各个模块,然后将各个模块安置在垂直地基上。

    Each ‘room’ or floor will then be stacked atop the other and held in place with engineered steel pins which are driven into the cliff face.

    然后,每个“房间”或楼层将会以堆叠的方式组合在一起,整座房屋将通过钢销固定在岩壁之上。

    Residents will enter the property from the cliff top at floor level and will use an elevator or stairs to descend3 to the bedroom, living area and kitchen.

    居住者将从岩壁上方进入房屋首层,利用升降机或楼梯到达卧室、起居室和厨房。

    The lowest floor of the concept home will comprise an outdoor space which seemingly floats about the water and a stunning4 – if rather scary – view of the ocean awaits.

    概念房屋的最下层还将包含一个浮于水上的户外空间,从这里能够观赏到迷人的海洋,但也可能有些吓人。

    The distinctive5 design solution came about after Modscape Concept were asked by a couple to create a property on Australia’s southwest coast, where they owned some land.

    Modscape Concept建筑公司向希望在澳大利亚西南海岸建造住宅的一对居住在该处并拥有该处一些土地的夫妻提出了这个独特的设计方案。
