A prefabricated concrete cube appears to hover above the wooden base of this house near Amsterdam by Dutch practice Engel Architecten.
Located in the town of Aalsmeer, the villa was built on a lot that had very specific development requirements set out by the local government – the building had to be a small tower, like a gatekeeper’s house. 该别墅位于荷兰的阿斯米尔城镇，建造在一块由当地政府规定的开发要求非常特殊的空地上。这建筑必须足够小，像门房一样。
“It had to be out of the ordinary and not the same as other traditional houses in the vicinity,” architect Maarten Engel told Dezeen. Fortunately, “this very much appealed to the clients, so they purchased the lot.” “这必定是与众不同的，而且要跟附近的其他传统住宅不一样。”建筑师Maarten Engel告诉Dezeen。非常幸运的是，“这对业主非常有吸引力，所以他们购买了这块地。”
The architects came up with a cost-efficient cube of prefabricated concrete measuring just nine metres on each side, which sits atop a horizontally clad hardwood base. 建筑师们提出一个性价比很高的方盒子方案。方盒子由预制混凝土制成，每边长9米，坐落在一个水平地覆盖硬木的基座上。
Above the wooden base is a narrow strip of glazing to give the impression that the concrete cube is hovering slightly above it. 硬木基座上方，是一圈窄窄的带状玻璃幕，这样给人留下混凝土方盒子轻轻的悬浮在基座上面的印象。
On the ground floor, a glass corridor connects the kitchen and living areas to a separate workspace used by one of the residents, who is a florist. 在底层，一个玻璃廊道把厨房与居住空间连接到一个独立的工作室。其中一位居住者使用这个工作室，他是一名花商。
A walled roof terrace is embedded in the top of the cube and also equipped with a kitchen. 方盒子顶部设计成带有女儿墙的屋顶平台，同时还预装了一个厨房。
Here’s some more text from the architects: 这里是来自于建筑师的更多文字：
Engel Architecten has realised a villa with a building system that has its roots in industrial and commercial buildings. Engel Architecten实现了运用一种源自于工业与商业建筑的建造方法来完成一栋别墅。
The villa is made from prefabricated concrete element. This system is widely used for industrial and commercial buildings, but this is one of the first times it has been used for a villa. One of the big advantages is the cost and the building speed, without having to make concession in build quality and spatial experience. 这栋别墅由预制的混凝土元件建造而成。这种方法在工业与商业建筑中被广泛运用，但这是首批运用到别墅的其中一个案例。最大的好处之一就是造价（低）和建造速度（高），而不必在建造质量与空间体验上做出妥协。
It consists of a perfect cube placed in the axis of a green strip in a newly formed neighborhood in Aalsmeer, a medium-sized town close to Amsterdam. Next to the cube a small workspace is placed. The workspace is connected to the main volume by a glass corridor. On top of the house there is a roof terrace with a built-in kitchen. 别墅包含一个完美的方盒子，坐落在阿斯米尔（阿姆斯特丹附近一个中等规模的城镇）最近形成的一个社区的绿色带的轴线上。紧挨着方盒子是一个工作间，工作间由一个玻璃廊道通向别墅主体。房子上面是一个带有预装厨房的屋顶平台。
The materials used are both natural and industrial: precast smooth concrete and wooden sidings made from padouk, an African FSC hardwood type. The concrete and wood are separated by glass windows. This disconnects the concrete from the wood so that the concrete block seems to hover above the wooden plinth 使用的材料，自然的和工业的都有：预制的光滑的混凝土和木质的条形板，条形板由紫颤木（非洲森林管理委员会认证的硬木类型）制成。混凝土和木材由玻璃窗隔开。把混凝土从木材处断开，以便让混凝土方盒子看起来像悬浮在木制基座上。
