Tinyleaf 户外小屋
GO'C

设计特色:      

项目 – 坐落于梅索谷(Methow Valley)腹地的"珍叶小屋"(Tinyleaf Cabin)是GO'C建筑事务所在紧凑居住和可持续设计方面的杰作。这座15英尺×22英尺的前哨站巧妙地依山而建,作为未来开发的先驱,让业主能比传统建筑方式更早地享受到这里壮丽的景观和全年的休闲机会。

 

小屋的设计充分展现了因地制宜的建筑艺术,通过精心挑选的材料与周围环境完美融合。钢制外墙和混凝土墙面呼应了自然景观的色调,确保"小屋"无论在哪个季节都仿佛与这片土地浑然一体。

 

这个项目的与众不同之处在于其对空间利用的创新方法。内部设计堪比船舱,是空间效率的典范。每一寸空间都通过巧妙的储物方案和多功能元素得到最大化利用,从带隐藏抽屉的升高床铺到拉出式储物板,无不体现匠心独运。这种周到的设计让小小的空间感觉意外地宽敞舒适。

 

小屋与户外的联系是重中之重,南立面的大片玻璃推拉门将自然景观引入室内。平坦的屋顶既可作为露台空间,又能在冬季存积雪提供保温效果。一条线性天窗为后墙洒下自然光,进一步模糊了室内外的界限。

 

这座户外小屋堪称极简主义奢华的典范,证明了通过智慧设计,即使是最小的空间也能提供舒适、实用性和与自然的深度连接。

Feature:

Project - Nestled in the heart of the Methow Valley, Tinyleaf Cabin by GO'C is a masterclass in compact living and sustainable design. This 15'x22' outpost, ingeniously bermed into the hillside, serves as a precursor to future development, allowing the client to embrace the site's dramatic views and year-round recreational opportunities sooner than traditional building approaches would permit.

 

The cabin's design is a testament to the power of contextual architecture, seamlessly blending with its surroundings through carefully chosen materials that age gracefully. Steel cladding and concrete walls echo the natural palette of the landscape, ensuring Tinyleaf appears as if it has always been part of the site, regardless of the season.

 

What sets Tinyleaf apart is its innovative approach to space utilization. The interior, reminiscent of a ship's cabin, is a marvel of efficiency. Every inch is maximized through clever storage solutions and multi-functional elements, from a raised bed with concealed drawers to pull-out pantry panels. This thoughtful design allows the small footprint to feel surprisingly spacious and livable.

 

The cabin's connection to the outdoors is paramount, with large glazed sliding doors on the south facade inviting the landscape in. A flat roof doubles as a deck space while providing thermal benefits by retaining snow in winter. A linear skylight washes the rear wall with natural light, further blurring the lines between inside and out.

 

Tinyleaf Cabin stands as a beacon of minimalist luxury, proving that with intelligent design, even the smallest spaces can offer comfort, functionality, and a deep connection to nature.

From the award-winning Tinyleaf Cabin to the innovative Mini Mart City Park, GO'C consistently delivers projects that showcase a masterful balance of form and function.
