TERREMOTO: 这座古老的索诺马农舍现在俨然成为了一个新的家园。“过时的建筑必须进行调整来适应新的建筑，

景观也是如此。” Terremoto在饮了两杯美酒后，如是畅谈道。

TERREMOTO: An old Sonoma farmhouse is now a home. “A building type with an obsolete program must be adjusted to accommodate the new. The same goes for the landscape.” shouts Terremoto, hoarsely, after two glasses of a delicious Chardonnay.

从前这里的前院和后院，被一个不怎么起作用的、细长的侧院分成了两部分。而我们彻底改变了这种空间划分形式，取而代之的是一系列连续的个性化空间。现场的参天红杉营造出一种强大的园艺氛围，在入口处形成了一种序列感与柔和的斑驳光影画面。我们悄悄地在这片林下种植了一丛丛本土青草，高大的红杉似乎并没有受到任何干扰。

Previously there was a front yard and back yard, split in two by a non-productive, slim side-yard. We choose to reject these divisions- it’s just one space with personalities that adjust along the progression. Existing, towering Redwoods set a powerful horticultural tone and create an entrance sequence with soft dappled light. We quietly plant drifts of native grasses in this understory; the Sequoias seem unperturbed.

一条细长的、略微高于地面的木板路把你引入内部空间，又强迫你改变方向，绕过我们保留下来的一棵日本枫树。之前空空荡荡的过渡空间被设计成一个柔软下陷的地掷球庭院，再辅以薄薄的耐候钢镶边。优雅的侘寂感。

A slim, just-so-slightly-lifted-off-grade boardwalk brings you in and forces a change of direction against an also-existing Japanese Maple we choose to preserve. The previously vacuous interim space is programmed with a softly sunken bocce court, and edged with slim corten steel. A polite depression.

我们在庭院中挖掘并建造了一个适度规模的水池，又在旁边建了半块草地，中间点缀着几棵红皮杨梅树。火坑的防风圈和树皮产生了鲜明的对比，这对我们来说是一个意外的惊喜。我们堆叠在火坑周围的当地巨石，营造出了一种难以言喻的美感，这也让我们决定从此以后，开始努力将项目场地的地质情况融入我们的项目设计中了。

We dig and construct a modestly scaled pool, we flank it with a half meadow interspersed with scarlet-bark Arbutus trees that break the scale. The corten ring of the fire-pit and the bark of the trees play off each other, this is a serendipitous surprise, but we’ll take it. We encircle the fire with boulders from the immediate area, and henceforth strive to bring in local geology into our projects, it feels right.
