并非所有杰作迫切需要人们的关注。有的杰作耐心，冷静地等待着自己的才华被感觉到。 Joseph Biondos的“宁静之家”就是这样一件艺术品。出类拔萃，隐藏在显而易见的地方。 这座建筑起源于一种地壳构造语言，被建来与其周围的环境融合在一起，并随其所在地的起伏地形而变。这是一件成熟，优雅，经过深思熟虑的极具美感的作品，Biondo以非凡的方式到达了他对普通材料的探索的顶峰。正如他所说，提高人们对不起眼的材料的认识可以是一件富有诗意的事情。作为一首感官交响诗，它是一所需要被感知而不是观看的房子，驱动着凭直觉感到重力，温度，相互作用，质感和美感的的各种感官。

Not all masterpieces scream for attention. Some wait with patience, with composure, for their genius to be felt. Joseph Biondos Equanimity House is just such a work of art; the exceptional, hiding in plain sight. Born of a tectonic language, the structure is built to coalesce with its surroundings, becoming one with the rolling topography of its site. A mature, elegant, considered work of great beauty, Biondo has achieved the apogee of his exploration of ordinary materials in extraordinary ways. As he says, To heighten ones awareness of a humble material can be poetic. A sensorial tone poem, this is a house that is felt, rather than viewed, driving the senses that intuit gravity, temperature, interaction, texture, and aesthetics.
