The Ranch Mine
The Ranch Mine是一家由夫妻领导的建筑公司，总部位于亚利桑那州凤凰城，专门为具有先锋精神、梦想家和探索者设计住宅，他们认为家不仅仅是一个房子。
在亚利桑那州天堂谷（Paradise Valley，Arizona），房主们向牧场矿（the Ranch Mine）求助，希望在增加额外空间的同时对其现有的1970年代的房子进行彻底翻新，他们对房子的描述是“天花板低，又黑又窄”。
“Dark and cramped with low ceilings” was the description the homeowners gave of their existing 1970’s house in Paradise Valley, Arizona when they reached out to The Ranch Mine with hopes of completely renovating it while adding additional space.
建筑师们将重新设计的重点放在提供一个新的室内/室外生活区，提供充足的自然光，增加无法容纳他们不断增长的家庭的空间，并重新配置原有的住宅，以充分利用现有空间。
The architects focused the redesign on providing a new, indoor/outdoor living area with ample natural light, adding spaces that were lacking to accommodate their growing family, and reconfiguring the original home to make the most of the existing space.
第一个设计步骤是将大部分新增部分与现有房屋平行，并通过一个单独的连接元素将其连接起来，其中包括一个新的泥房、粉房和大厅。
The first design move was running a majority of the addition parallel to the existing house, connecting them with a singular linking element containing a new mudroom, powder room and hall.
这一策略将新房子和旧房子分开，使原有的房子可以完全重复使用，同时为新房子提供充足的自然光和交叉通风的机会。它还在中间空间创造了一个庭院，这是美国西南部一种久经考验的生活方式。
This strategy separates the new and old, allowing the original house to be completely reused while providing the addition with ample natural light and cross ventilation opportunities. It also creates a courtyard in the in-between space, a time tested way of living in the American Southwest.
新增的客房套房和主套房两端都用白色灰泥粉刷，中间有规则间距的柱子，支撑着一个亭子状的屋顶。
The addition is anchored on both ends by a new guest suite and primary suite rendered in white stucco with regularly spaced columns in the middle supporting a pavilion-like roof.
屋顶覆盖了室内和室外的生活区域，在夏季，大的悬挑可以遮挡玻璃和天井。生活空间两侧的可操作窗户允许交叉通风，就像天井的通风设计一样。
The roof covers both the indoor and outdoor living areas with large overhangs that shade the glass and patio during the summer. Operable windows on both sides of the living space allow for cross ventilation like the breezeway inspired design of the patio.
在室内，新客厅的落地玻璃可以看到北面的山脉，这是以前不存在的景色。口袋玻璃门可以隐藏在抹灰的壁炉后面，与天井形成无缝连接。
On the interior, floor to ceiling glass in the new living room take in views of the mountains to the north, views that didn’t exist previously. Pocketing glass doors can be hidden behind the plastered fireplace, creating a seamless connection to the patio.
