The Ranch Mine：美国亚利桑那州凤凰山保护区北侧，坐落着一个曾经被忽视和未被充分利用的马场，现在这里变成了一个与世隔绝的自然栖息地和暂时远离城市生活的休憩之所。“O-asis”是由凤凰城建筑公司Ranch Mine设计的一座新型太阳能住宅。这座“O”型智能住宅旨在将现代生活与音乐、阳光和荒漠动植物的永恒之美融为一体。

The Ranch Mine：Nestled on the north side of the Phoenix mountain preserve sits a once neglected and underutilized site in a horse property neighborhood, now transformed into a secluded native habitat and respite from city life. ‘O-asis’ is a new, solar powered home designed by Phoenix based architecture firm The Ranch Mine. The ‘O’ shaped smart home was designed to integrate modern life with the timeless beauty of music, sunlight, and desert flora and fauna.

“O-asis”住宅低矮地坐落在荒漠之上，只有12.5英尺（约3.81米）高，部分被生锈的钢栅栏包围，住宅表面用白色灰泥以及凹陷的木质壁龛装饰。其强烈的水平形式设计意在衬托荒漠景观引人注目的形式。

‘O-asis’ sits low in the desert at just 12.5 feet tall, partially surrounded by a rusted steel rattlesnake fence and finished in white stucco with recessed niches of wood. Its strong horizontal form was designed as a datum for highlighting the dramatic shapes of the desert landscape.

游泳池打破了“O”型平面，将视野引向荒漠，向南面的山脉延伸，泳池南端覆盖着一个内置火炉的长椅，是白天晒太阳或晚上仰望星空的完美场所。

The pool breaks from the ‘O’ shaped plan, drawing you out into the desert towards the mountain views to the south, and is capped by a built-in fire pit bench, a perfect place to catch some sun during the day or lay out under the stars at night.

景观中采用的是一种高海拔的本土索诺兰沙漠植物，旨在促进当地动植物的生物多样性，营造随季节变化而变化的景观。地形经过精心设计和扩展以连接自然排水区和栖息地，同时提供战略屏障和隐私保护。

The landscape is an elevated native Sonoran desert plant palate designed to encourage biodiversity for native flora and fauna within a landscape that is always evolving from season to season. Topography was finessed and exaggerated to connect natural drainage areas and habitat, while providing strategic screening and privacy.

进入住宅，迎接你的是一个中央庭院，这是一种久经考验的在沙漠中生活的策略，它带来了间接的自然光、新鲜空气和独特的植物，其功能就像房主的一个艺术画廊，会随着光、影、生长和季节的变化而不断变化。主要生活空间两侧的口袋状玻璃门将凉风送入室内，同时保证室内外气体无缝流动，在几秒钟内将房子的主要生活区域转变成一个有盖的露天空间。

Upon entering the home you are greeted by a central courtyard, a time tested strategy for living in the desert, that brings in indirect natural light, fresh air, and unique plants that function like an art gallery for the homeowners, ever changing with light, shadow, growth and seasons. Pocketing glass doors on either side of the main living space funnel cool breezes through the house while providing a seamless indoor/outdoor flow, transforming the main living areas of the house into a covered open air space in seconds.

大厅的特色是在胡桃木板条区域背面铺设了隔音毡，为屋主提供了美妙的音质效果。屋主是一位资深的钢琴家，他会用钢琴录制音乐在白天播放，应和着庭院中植物不断变化之美。像钢琴一样，房间里几乎所有的设备都可以无线遥控，如灯光、扬声器、百叶窗、锁、摄像头等等。

The great room features areas of walnut slats backed with acoustic felt to provide a fantastic sound quality for the homeowner, a skillful pianist, who can record music on the piano and have it played back during the day, accompanying the ever-changing beauty of the courtyard plants. Like the piano, almost everything in the house can be controlled wirelessly, such as the lights, the speakers, the blinds, the locks, cameras and so on.

隐藏在板条墙中的一扇旋转门可以通往主卧。这套主卧完全颠覆常规做法，卧室的大小限制在只能放置内置床的范围内，而将大部分空间用作水疗浴室和零售风格的衣帽间。一个四面敞亮的中心为房主提供了梳妆台、化妆区和长凳，而一个覆盖着石灰石的蒸汽淋浴房位于拐角处。

Hidden in one of the slat walls, a pivot door leads to the primary suite. The primary suite turns convention on its head, limiting the size of the bedroom to just enough room for the built-in bed, using most of the space for the spa inspired bathroom and retail inspired closet. A 4-sided, sky lit island provides his and her vanities, a makeup area, and a bench while a limestone clad steam shower provides a rejuvenating refuge around the corner.

大套房的另一边，一间瑜伽室延伸至沙漠地面，软木地板提供了一个可以练习的柔软表面。

On the other side of the great room, a yoga room runs right up to the desert floor, with cork flooring providing a soft surface on which to practice.

院子后面是一个配备了特斯拉电力墙电池和屋顶太阳能的车库，以及一套客房，该套房设计有单独的入口和户外空间，便于在需要时能完全自主使用。

Behind the courtyard is a garage with Tesla Powerwall batteries and solar on the roof, as well as an in-law suite which was designed to have its own entrance and outdoor spaces for complete autonomy when desired.
