ranch houses (ranch style houses) (<houses by form: massing or shape>, <houses by form>, ... Built Environment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Designates asymmetrically massed, one-story houses with low-pitched roofs and rambling shapes; may also be used for the main dwelling on ranches. During the late 1940s and 1950s, the ranch house became associated with the work of architect Cliff May (1908-1989), who often used open plan buildings with large areas of glass. The designs became popular and were assimilated by other architects after the publication of two architectural pattern books by "Sunset" magazine, "'Sunset' Western Ranch Houses (San Francisco, 1946) and "Western Ranch Houses by Cliff May" (Menlo Park, 1958).

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 量體不對稱的單層屋舍，屋頂緩斜，形狀不規則；也可用來指稱牧場上的主要住所。西元1940年代晚期及1950年代期間，建築師克里夫‧梅伊（Cliff May，1908-1989）常運用具有大片玻璃的開放式建築設計，牧場式住宅從此與其作品變得密不可分。在《日落雜誌》出版《西部牧場式住宅‧日落專刊》（舊金山，1946）及《克里夫‧梅伊的西部牧場式住宅》（門洛帕克，1958）兩本建築式樣專書之後，此種設計蔚為風潮，其他建築師亦相繼仿效。 |
| Dutch ..... Verwijst naar asymmetrisch ontworpen huizen met één bouwlaag, lage schuine daken, een groot grondoppervlak en een onregelmatige vorm; kan ook worden gebruikt voor het belangrijkste woonhuis op een ranch. Sedert het eind van de jaren 40 en de jaren 50 van de 20ste eeuw wordt het ranchhuis in verband gebracht met het werk van Cliff May (1908-1989), een architect die vaak gebouwen met een open plattegrond en grote glaspartijen ontwierp. De ontwerpen sloegen aan, en na de publicatie van twee bouwkundige ‘pattern books’ door het tijdschrift 'Sunset', 'Sunset Western Ranch Houses' (San Francisco, 1946) en 'Western Ranch Houses by Cliff May' (Menlo Park, 1958), werden zijn ideeën ook door andere architecten overgenomen. |
| Spanish ..... Designa una casa de una planta, de masa asimétrica, con un tejado de baja inclinación y formas destartaladas. También puede ser utilizado para designar la vivienda principal en un rancho. |
