Studio Andrew Trotter：帕拉锡安创新住宅和“建筑画廊”开发项目于2024年1月正式推出，将联合全球部分最具创新精神的公司——MORQ、GOMA、Taller Hector Barroso、Studio Andrew Trotter，在犹他州科洛布峡谷（Kolob Canyon）脚下、锡安国家公园（Zion National Park）入口处占地 35 英亩的崎岖土地上，打造一个由22座独栋私人住宅（分别由22位名家设计）组成的创意社区。截止目前，四家备受赞誉且风格迥异的公司已按照建筑准则贡献了他们独特的设计。这些住宅面积从3000平方英尺到5000平方英尺不等，已经进入施工阶段，预计将于 2026 年第三季度正式交付。

Studio Andrew Trotter：Today marks the official unveiling of Pala Zion, an innovative residential development and “architectural gallery” that unifies some of the world’s most innovative firms – Morq, GOMA and Taller Hector Barroso and Studio Andrew Trotter – to create a community of 22 individually designed, standalone private homes situated on a rugged 35-acre plot adjacent Utah’s Kolob Canyon at the footsteps of Zion National Park. Pala Zion marks the first time that these four acclaimed and distinct firms have worked together, each contributing a collection of residences along architectural guidelines. The homes, ranging from 3,000 – 5,000 square feet, are currently under construction and are expected to be delivered in Q3 2026.

从整体来看，Pala Zion为渴望隐世和自我更新的人们提供了理想的生活方式，同时也在志同道合的居民之间建立了一种社区感。

企业家里德·勒纳（Reed Lerner）和罗伯特·巴贝奇（Robert Babbage）委托安德鲁·特罗特工作室（Studio Andrew Trotter）为帕拉锡安（Pala Zion）制定建筑准则，并挑选了三家不同的公司，每家公司都设计了一系列住宅，这些住宅向这片世界上最壮丽的沙漠景观之一的原始地形致敬。该开发项目包括三至五居室的住宅，每栋住宅都设计有无缝衔接的室内外生活空间、私人庭院、厨房和游泳池，与周围原始地形的悬崖和巨石和谐相融。

每栋住宅还将配备一个小型水疗中心，内设桑拿房和浴缸，同时通过提供周围环境的无遮挡视野，让居民与大自然紧密相连。部分住宅将设有开放式天窗，这些天窗由建筑的负空间打造而成，充分利用自然光、空气流通以及当地石材，包括采用从挖掘过程中获得的未加工石灰岩和砂岩制成的定制灰泥饰面。

From a holistic perspective, Pala Zion provides the ideal lifestyle for disconnection, reflection, and self-renewal, while fostering a sense of community among like-minded residents.

Entrepreneurs Reed Lerner and Robert Babbage commissioned Studio Andrew Trotter to create the architectural guidelines for Pala Zion and to select three different firms to each deliver a series of residences that pay homage to the time and place of the primordial terrain in one of the most majestic desert landscapes in the world. The development features homes ranging from three to five bedrooms, each designed with seamless indoor and outdoor living spaces, private courtyards, kitchens and swimming pools that blend harmoniously with the surrounding bluffs and boulders of the primeval terrain.

Each residence will also feature a small spa with a sauna and bath while connecting denizens with nature by offering unobstructed views of the surroundings. Several residences will feature open-air sunroofs, crafted from the negative space of the structures, utilizing natural light, airflow, and local stone, including custom plaster finishes that incorporate raw limestone and sandstone from the excavation process.

安德鲁·特罗特工作室在春季和深秋时节都对帕拉锡安的场地进行了考察。为了适应季节性的气候变化，工作室设计了挑檐，同时调整了建筑朝向，避免夏季阳光直射进入住宅，使建筑在夏季更加凉爽，冬季更加温馨舒适。

Studio Andrew Trotter visited the site for Pala Zion both in the spring and late fall. To adjust to the seasonal climate changes, the studio created overhangs and orientated the buildings to prevent the summer sun from entering the buildings, keeping them cool in the summer, yet cozy and warm in the winter.

设计师希望帕拉锡安能成为人们远离喧嚣、恢复活力的理想之地，同时也能成为志同道合者相聚之所。总体愿景是希望其成为举行仪式、社区活动和私人生活的场所。

“科洛布峡谷的景色美不胜收，尤其是在日落时分，色彩鲜艳而梦幻，”安德鲁·特罗特说道，“帕拉锡安是建筑与这种壮丽景色和谐共存的地方——梦境幻化成现实。”

Studio Andrew Trotter intends for Pala Zion to be the perfect place to disconnect, to rejuvenate oneself, and while at the same time, become a meeting place for like minded people. The studio’s work for the project and creation of architectural guidelines for Pala Zion to be a place to join rituals, community and private living.

“The landscape of Kolob Canyons is truly incredible, especially at sunset, when the colors become vivid and surreal,” says Andrew Trotter. “Pala Zion is a place where architecture harmonizes with this splendor—a realization of a dream.”

该工作室总共设计了五座房屋，其中包括一座角落房屋，整座建筑都能欣赏到北面和西面的壮丽景色。另外两座较大的房屋设计相同，主要朝北，而客厅、餐厅和厨房则朝西。最后两座房屋较为简约，直接朝北。每座房屋都有多个庭院，既保证了房屋的私密性，又能让室内空间与室外自然相连。每座建筑都是独立的单体结构。

Five houses in total have been designed by the firm, including a corner house that has incredible views to the north and to the west from the whole building. Two larger houses of the same design mainly look to the north, whilst the living, dining and kitchen have views to the west. The last two houses are more simple, with direct views to the north, one slightly smaller than the other. Each house has many courtyards, which give privacy to the house from the street, allowing for an open flow from the inside out. Each building is separate and a standalone structure.

安德鲁·特罗特工作室构想了一个社区，在那里建筑与科洛布峡谷的原始美景无缝融合。每栋住宅的内外都将采用手工涂抹的石灰灰泥建造，嵌入起伏的悬崖和雄伟的台地之中。该项目重新定义了“静谧奢华”，通过建筑和美学的视角强调与自然的联系，同时注重环境影响，通过天窗和大面积的玻璃墙促进自然采光和空气流通。

Studio Andrew Trotter has envisioned a community where architecture seamlessly integrates with the wild beauty of Kolob Canyons. Each home will be constructed with hand-applied lime plaster on both exteriors and interiors, embedded within the terrain’s undulating bluffs and majestic mesas. The project embodies a new definition of “quiet luxury,” focusing on a connection to nature through a lens of architecture and aesthetic, supported by environmental impact and promoting natural light and cross-ventilation through sunroofs and expansive glass walls.

MORQ for Pala Zion

MORQ将住宅构想为一种享受和感受这片风景的装置。埃米利亚诺·罗亚（MORQ 的联合创始人）这样描述帕拉锡安项目：“……一个装置，它能让居住者感受并意识到这片独特的广阔场地所在。”

For Pala Zion, Emiliano Roia, co-founding partner of MORQ, visited the site in Utah in April 2022. As a result, the Pala Zion design is conceived as a device to enjoy and feel the landscape. Emiliano Roia (co-founder of MORQ), for Pala Zion describes the project as ‘…a device’ that allows the inhabitants to feel and acknowledge this unique location. A house that recognized the scale of the landscape’.

MORQ 致力于设计的“装置”，符合该公司所秉持的一贯价值观：将景观作为主角；房屋与自然环境融为一体；营造既私密又开放的氛围；设计宁静、严谨、天然、流畅，于抽象和场地特定事物之间找到平衡点。

MORQ aims to design a ‘device’ that allows the inhabitants to feel and acknowledge this spectacular location. The firm’s values embedded in the project include the view as being protagonist; a house rooted in the landscape; an atmosphere intimate yet open; a design that is serene, rigorous, primitive and slick; and to find a point of balance between a typological (abstract) and site-specific design (plaster).

GOMA设计了六座全景住宅和一座转角住宅，旨在与周边景观建立紧密联系。住宅由一个距离地面1.8米的大型空心顶盖构成，进入室内后，层高升至3.15米。在炎热夏季太阳直射时，顶盖可为房屋遮阳；而在冬季太阳低垂时，阳光仍可通过顶盖与地面之间的缝隙照入室内。这是戈马工作室从路易斯·康、路易斯·巴拉甘和阿尔瓦罗·西扎等汲取的灵感，以及，哥伦布时期和本土建筑也是他们的灵感来源。

For Pala Zion, the studio has created six panoramic houses and one corner solution, designed to provide a rooted connection with the landscape. The house is formed by a big hollow cover that floats 1.8mts from the ground, once inside, the heights lift up to 3.15 meters. The floating cover will shield the house during the hot season when the sun is more vertical, but in the winter, when the sun is lower on the horizon, sunlight can still enter through the gap between the shell and the ground. In terms of influences, Goma references Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Sufjan Stevens, Louis Kahn, Luis Barragán, and Álvaro Siza as sources of inspiration, among others. The firm is also inspired by pre-hispanic and vernacular architecture.

“这个项目的选址令人难以置信——它位于沙漠中的一座台地上，”GOMA事务所的负责人卡洛斯·冈萨雷斯（Carlos Gonzalez）表示：“这里的景色十分壮观，光影强烈，空气似乎比我们在墨西哥习惯的还要清新。犹他州的沙漠环境更为极端，所以我们把这座房子当作现代的庇护所或壳式房屋来设计。它就像沙漠中的一块平衡石。全景式房屋的想法是希望住户能一览无余地欣赏地平线，尤其是朝向南部山脉的景色。”

“The location of the project is incredible—it’s on top of a mesa in the Utah desert, ” says Carlos González, Principal of GOMA. “The views are dramatic, with intense light and shadow, and the air seems more clear than what we’re used to back in Mexico. The Utah desert is much more extreme, so we approached the house as a modern shelter or shell house. It’s like a balancing rock in the desert. The panoramic house idea came from wanting an uninterrupted view of the horizon, especially towards the southern mountains.”

赫克托·巴罗索工作室的项目总营造出一种“林中静谧”的氛围，与场地环境和谐共处。他们善于利用每个地方的自然资源例如周边植被、土壤成分、地理位置等使建筑脱颖而出，打造与环境相契合的独特建筑方案。

Taller Hector Barroso’s project has a “quiet in the woods” mood, which conforms to the environment of the site, welcomes the beautiful natural landscape and lives in harmony with nature. Taller Hector Barroso is committed to using the natural resources of each place to stand out, such as the surrounding vegetation, the composition of the soil, the geographical location and so on, to create a distinct building scheme that integrates with the natural environment.

他们为帕拉·锡安所做的设计着重于朝向、交叉通风和材料这些基本要素，营造全年宜人的室内氛围和质感。Tanizaki 的著作、塔可夫斯基的电影以及本土建筑都都是他们的设计灵感来源。

赫克托·巴罗索（Hector Barroso）设计的这座更高的建筑将Pala Zion与墨西哥沙漠、特别是下加利福尼亚地区的相似之处联系起来，在建筑布局中体现广阔的景观。最终的设计融合了经典的建筑风格、自然景观以及对自然环境和地形产生最小的影响。

Taller Hector Barroso’s work for Pala Zion will focus on the fundamentals on orientation, crossed ventilation and materiality to have a year round atmosphere and quality inside the house. In Praise of Shadows by Tanizaki, films by Tarkovsky and native architecture are all referenced as inspirations for Pala Zion.

Taller Hector Barroso also connects Pala Zion to similarities with the Mexican desert, specifically in the Baja California area. The vastness of the landscape echoes in the placement of the architecture. The result incorporates timeless architecture, the convergence into the landscape and lesser impact of the natural environment and terrain.
