Taigh Na Traigh is a new 4-bedroom family home on the Isle of Tiree on the west coast of Scotland that sits high above the sea looking east towards the mainland over Mull. The site is on the working yard of the main house of the township of Mannal where the previous owner sold the dwelling and our site as two separate lots. The site is therefore peppered with various farm buildings, ruins and a byre in which our new house sits.

Taigh Na Traigh 是位于苏格兰西海岸蒂雷岛上的一座全新的四居室家庭住宅，坐落在高高的海面上，向东眺望穆尔岛。该住宅位于曼纳尔（Mannal）乡镇主宅的工作场上，前房主将住宅和我们的住宅作为两块独立的土地出售。因此，这里遍布着各种农场建筑、废墟和一座荒地，我们的新房子就坐落在荒地上。

These agricultural relics drove the formal organisation of the house and in particular the ruins of the gabled byre. The resultant house, split into two wings, nestles into the rebuilt stone walls which drive the main architectural expression of the building. Essentially a house of two gables, on approach, you enter through the stone gable into a courtyard garden from where you are presented with a framed view of Hynish and a row of lighthouse cottages designed by Alan Stevenson.

这些农业遗迹推动了房屋的形式组织，尤其是屋檐边的废墟。由此形成的房屋分为两翼，依偎在重建的石墙上，这也是该建筑的主要建筑风格。从本质上讲，这是一座双檐式房屋，从石檐进入庭院花园，就能看到海尼什和一排由艾伦-史蒂文森（Alan Stevenson）设计的灯塔小屋。

From this courtyard you move through the house to the climax of the procession where you are faced with the negative of the stone gable in three fixed panels of glass. To create this expression, we copied the volume of the byre, slid it out beyond the old boundary wall and lifted it up to create the negative gable form bringing you close to the sea creating a feeling like being on the prow of a ferry. This main volume, almost religious in scale, contains a kitchen and utility space, dining table and the main sitting room. Overhead is the master suite with ensuite bathroom, dressing room and study.

从这个庭院出发，穿过房屋，就到了整个过程的高潮部分，在这里，你会看到由三块固定的玻璃板组成的石制屋檐的底面。为了营造出这样的效果，我们复制了酒窖的体量，将其滑出老围墙之外，并将其抬高，以创造出负檐的形式，使您接近大海，产生一种仿佛置身于渡轮船头的感觉。主体建筑的规模近乎宗教式，内设厨房和公用设施空间、餐桌和主起居室。上方是主人套房，配有浴室、更衣室和书房。

Sitting at right angles to this main wing is the bedroom wing that contains three bedrooms and two bathrooms with views east drinking in the morning sun and views out to sea. The ceilings of these spaces are subtly curved creating a contrast between the low-pitched roof outside.

卧室侧楼与主楼成直角，内设三间卧室和两间浴室，朝东可沐浴晨光，朝西可眺望大海。这些空间的天花板呈微妙的弧形，与外部的低坡屋顶形成鲜明对比。

Constructed from a bespoke timber SIPs kit, the house is highly insulated with heating provided through an air source heat pump. Externally, the house is clad from the materials and forms of Tiree; stone walls, timber cladding, pebbledash render and bitumen in both sheet and corrugated forms.

房屋由定制的木材 SIPs 套件建造而成，隔热性能极佳，通过空气源热泵提供暖气。从外部看，房屋的外墙采用了蒂雷岛的材料和形式；石墙、木质外墙、鹅卵石饰面以及片状和波纹状的沥青。
