定理酒厂位于加利福尼亚州卡利斯托加市中心以西，纳帕谷内的钻石山产地。与当地常见的大型酒厂不同，这里一次只接待几百名客人，提供了独一无二的亲密体验，让人感受到极致的热情与好客。
Theorem Winery is located west of downtown Calistoga, California, within the Diamond Mountain appellation in Napa Valley. Eschewing the ubiquitous large winery venues focused on handling hundreds of guests at one time, Theorem is designed as an intimate, bespoke experience where hospitality reigns supreme.

这座占地约24万平方米的综合建筑群起源于19世纪后期，最初由贝弗利科尔（后来加利福尼亚大学/旧金山医疗系统的创始人）建造，是逃离旧金山城市迷雾的人们所热爱的乡村度假胜地。建筑群包含一座小校舍和一座独特的希腊复兴风格小屋——科尔之家。在为新酿酒厂制定总体规划时，Richard Beard首先对这里进行了复原改造。酿酒厂的设计对修复后的历史建筑进行了再次补充，其设计灵感来源于场地周边现有的乡土农业建筑。酿酒厂建筑群采用深色材料，在视觉上与周边景观保持协调，融入了北面圣赫勒拿山和南面葡萄园的景色之中。
The 60-acre complex features a cluster of late-19th century structures originally built by Beverley Cole as a country retreat to escape the fog of San Francisco (Cole is noted for establishing what would become the University of California/San Francisco Medical System). The property includes a small schoolhouse and a distinguished Greek revival cottage known as the Cole House, which was restored and remodeled by Richard Beard prior to master planning the property for the new winery. The winery is designed to complement the restored historic structures, taking inspiration from the vernacular agricultural buildings found on site and in the region. Clad in dark-toned materials to visually recede into the surrounding landscape, the complex takes second seat to views of Mount St. Helena to the north and vineyards to the south.

约834平方米的场地规模适中。从穿过外部凉亭、格架起，精心策划的空间体验将一直伴随宾客。光成为了塑造空间的重要元素，让人们脱离外界环境，完全沉寂在酒厂的氛围中。格架与接待区是调整光线的第一步，使视网膜逐渐适应渐暗的环境。继续深入，镶嵌镜面的楼梯将引领人们到达更暗的地下室，开启一段品酒之旅。垂直安装的混凝土墙板暴露在外，包裹着空间，其未经修饰的原始质感呼应着酒桶中尚未成熟的葡萄。一张简桌和一对贴在墙上的青铜翅膀作为这里的标志，已经成为了社交媒体上热门的打卡点。接下来，宾客将在引领下体验更多，走过校舍、瞭望点、谷仓棚架以及发酵室等不同建筑。
Modest in scale, the 8,977-square-foot venue is coupled with a carefully orchestrated guest experience, which begins as guests pass through an exterior arbor/trellis. Daylight, and its manipulation, becomes an important element in stripping away the world beyond and enabling guests to become fully emerged in the wine experience. The trellis and welcome/reception area serve as the first step in lowering light levels to allow visitors’ retinas to adjust. From there, guests walk down a mirror-lined staircase to the darker subterranean barrel room where the tasting journey begins. Exposed, vertically oriented, board-formed concrete walls wrap the space: its raw, unfinished nature recalling the nascent wine resting in adjacent barrels. The area is marked by a simple table and a pair of bronze wings affixed to the wall; the wings serving as a popular photo/social media location. Next, guests are escorted to any number of tasting sites within the complex: in front of the schoolhouse, at the lookout point, under the barn trellis, or in the fermentation room.

酒厂的双层建筑以深色屋顶和墙壁为特色，由横向伸展的钢结构构成了平面。从轴线方向上看，酿酒厂内的场景可尽收眼底。实心橡木制成的大型滑动门可在需要时完全关闭。钢框玻璃门窗为室内空间引入了充足的自然光，从而减少了发酵流程对被动照明的需求，并在视觉上将室内空间与自然环境联系起来。此外，初级发酵室的屋顶还设有连续的凸起天窗，为室内提供了充足的日光。
The two-story building, featuring dark roofing and siding, is a steel structure with a cross-axis floor plan. Axial vistas allow for views from and through the winery facility. Large, solid oak sliding barn doors provide full closure when desired. Steel-framed glass doors and windows fill the interior spaces with natural light, reducing the need for supplemental lighting in the fermentation room and visually connecting interior spaces to the natural surroundings. The roof of the primary fermentation room features a continuous monitor to provide ample daylight into the structure.
