Reed Hilderbrand : 粗糙的采石场——部分是废墟,部分是自然系统——应该从上面观察,而不是被占用。翻修房屋的景观是为了庆祝采石场的发现条件。通过仔细的管理和对工地石头的轻工改造,项目在隐形和清晰度之间的平衡。明智地将采石场的尾矿重新排列成几条清晰的路径和地点,使人们能够接触并加强对粗糙遗骸的体验。结果,屋主们找到了一个家庭休养所,那里挖掘出了老采石场的本质特征,而不是铺上地面式的。

Reed Hilderbrand : in an apparent gesture that the rough-hewn quarry—part ruin, part natural system—was to be viewed from above, not occupied. The landscape for the renovated house celebrates the found conditions of the quarry. Through careful stewardship and light-handed reworking of the site stone, the project balances between invisibility and articulation. The judicious reordering of the quarry tailings into a few legible pathways and places gives access to and heightens the experience of the rough remains. As a result, the homeowners have found a domestic retreat where Old Quarry’s essential character has been unearthed, not carpeted.

 

 

在岩石层中可以形成小块的土壤,新的树木被种植作为林地修复的一部分。对于每一棵被砍伐的树木——主要是挪威的枫树——一种新的、适应这种环境的多样化的树木已经被种植。在地面上,多年的手工除草和有机的维护措施已经征服了外来的外来物种,让那些好斗的土著居民的苗床得以生根发芽。在受建筑干扰的地区,选择了草本植物和木本植物,这些植物保持在低至地面的蕨类植物、熊果、低灌木蓝莓等,以强调地面本身的形状,并通过场地保持开阔的视野走廊。最适合于潮汐流周期性淹没的沙质土壤取代了前主人的花园床壤土。雨水收集和反渗透提供了控制灌溉,以管理当地土壤湿度的剧烈波动。

Where pockets of soil could be made within the rocky formations, new trees were planted as part of a woodland restoration. For each of the trees removed—mostly Norway Maples—a new diverse crop of trees, well-adapted to this environment, have been planted. On the ground plane, years of hand weeding and organic maintenance practices have conquered invasive exotics, allowing a seedbed of scrappy natives to take hold. In areas disturbed by construction, herbaceous and woody plants that remain low to the ground—ferns, bearberry, lowbush blueberry—were selected to emphasize the shape of the ground itself and to preserve an open view corridor through the site. Sandy soils best suited to periodic inundation by tidal flux replaced the previous owner’s garden bed loam. Rainwater harvesting and reverse osmosis provide controlled irrigation to manage the intense swings in soil moisture endemic to this condition.
