Our 3,000-square-foot home in Genoa is a one-story house that I designed and built in 1991 based on the greenhouses typically found in our hilly coastline region. It sits about 300 feet above the Ligurian Sea on land my father owned.
我们在热那亚的那座3,000平方英尺(约合279平米)的单层住宅是我在1991年设计和建造的,它的前身是一个温室,这样的温室在我们那个多山的海岸地区非常常见。它座落在利古里亚海(Ligurian Sea)上方约300英尺(约合91米)的一块地上,这块地是我父亲的。
The property rises abruptly from the sea and sets back several times to form terraces that were originally used for farming. I built my house on the top terrace, and a multistory office on the one just below. Both structures share an airy design and the same diagonal roof.
这块地突兀地矗立在海平面上方,有几个地方向后缩进,形成了好几处平台,它们最初都被用作耕地。我把房子建在了最高的那处平台上,并在它下面一层的平台建了一个多层的办公室。这两座建筑均采用了那种通透开阔的设计,屋顶也都是斜的。
The high elevation provides seclusion and privacy. For example, you can't drive to the house. I must park below at our nonprofit foundation and ride up to the office level in a small funicular that we had installed. Or for exercise, I follow my wife's advice and climb the 400 steps that we had built into the hill. The effort to reach the house makes me forget where I've been and makes arriving feel more exciting.
