新的美国人家

Take the classic white box architecture popularized by Richard Meier and others in the 1960s and 70s and add the latest in building technology, design trends and energy features, and you have the New American Home—the centerpiece of this year’s International Builders’ Show, which took place in Orlando, FL, in February.

新的美国房屋，来自国家家庭建筑商协会的年度共同赞助项目（NaHB.） 和建造者杂志旨在教育和告知建筑，材料和产品的新创新的专业人士。顾名思义，它是一个相当值的型号。

今年的房子由菲尔基·菲尔基特菲尔基尔菲尔基特菲尔基尔·菲尔基尔·菲尔基尔（Inc）为设计。在冬季公园的一个老街区占地面积。While ranking as the smallest-ever New American Home, this year’s entry, at 4,183 square feet, exemplifies the modern aesthetic by which it is inspired—a blend of functional and transitional spaces combining to create a living environment that is casual, low-maintenance and perfectly suited to its climate. “I wanted this house to honor the past,” notes architect Kean, “but take full advantage of current technologies and design trends.”

外面，房子采用奥斯图拉大草原的白色灰泥外观，专为该项目设计了专为这项项目而设计的石头，这为外部添加了一个微妙的摇滚纹理，并将家庭与周围环境联系起来。悬臂式屋顶，落地窗户和立方体的设计，并发挥了家庭的现代主义根源。

里面是现代建筑的另一个标志：一个开放的计划。在这栋房子里，通风布局包括膨胀玻璃面积，石板墙，悬挂楼梯和石灰石板条地板。厨房家庭间，毗邻餐厅和一楼的画廊，形成L形占地面积，不仅可以充分利用狭窄的城市批次，而且有助于定义封闭的后院空间。可移动的玻璃面板墙壁和电动屏幕提供从室内到外的无缝过渡，甲板，游泳池和户外厨房提供终极生活方式的生活。

厨房锚定房屋的主要生活区，是高度风格化的，并且通过其黑暗“近黑暗”枫木浓咖啡橱区（从林贝拉克），以及杜邦黄道十二宫的中心浮出水面。Jenn-Air Appliances用最新的技术和能源恒星效率，包括一个感应炉灶，内置冰箱和对流烤箱，包括业界首次“触摸随处”LED屏幕控制。

二楼的主卧室套房包括豪华的大理石浴室，豪华的大理石浴室配有豪华的大理石浴缸和配件，其中包括麻木厕所，revee泡泡/按摩浴缸和卫星淋浴，配有声音板，集成的喷头和蒸汽发生器。房间延伸至宽敞的衣柜区，铺设衣柜厂门和储存室，以及隐藏的洗衣房。二楼的阳台延伸了内部空间并提供下面的阴影。

As one would expect, green technology is factored into every aspect of the 2012 New American Home’s design and construction, from its Logix ICF (insulated concrete form) exterior walls and open-cell spray foam insulation to an ultraviolet light air-treatment system designed to improve indoor air quality. With 4KW photovoltaic (PV) solar panels, low-e aluminum windows and patio doors, Energy Star-rated appliances, LED/CFL lighting in the home and around the property and air-tight thermal shell, the house is expected to consume 52% less energy than a standard home—or provide $1,536 in annual savings to the homeowner. The house exceeds U.S. Energy Star standards, meets LEED Platinum certification and has been recognized by the National Green Building Standard with “Emerald” certification—the highest level of classification.

在保持房屋的环保特征，外部景观利用人造草坪用于草坪地区 - 降低水，维护和农药的需求 - 只有天然佛罗里达植物。
