恢复一个有50年历史的建筑–一半是住房，一半是谷仓。其目的是保持现有的记忆，这个空间曾经是各种经历的舞台–农村的故事和年轻人的故事混合在一起，来自一个有争议的时代。

Recovering a building with 50 years ‐ half housing, half barn. The aim is to maintain existing memories from a space that, once, was the stage to such varied experiences ‐ rural stories mixed with stories of young people from a controversial time.

在这样一个特殊的地方，如谷仓的存在，被选择来保护它，并选择它作为一个年轻的成长型家庭的新家的主角。

In the presence of such a special place, as the barn, is chosen to protect it and elect it as the protagonist of the new home of a young growing family.

一个单一的新元素被插入这个空间，几乎就像一件家具，这个想法被其自身的材料性所强调–涂漆的OSB。在预算非常少的情况下（另一个目标），必须创造一个紧凑的元素，将所有的新功能–厨房、厕所、储藏室和楼梯汇集在一起。

A single new element is inserted in this space, amost like a furniture piece, that idea is accentuated by its own materiality – painted OSB. With a very small budget (the other goal), it is essential to create a compact element, bringing together all the new functions – kitchen, toilets, storage and staircase.

这个 “家具 “是底层社会区域的基本组成部分，将入口区、客厅、用餐区和厨房的空间划分开来。顶层在其他时候是用来晾晒谷物的，现在则与社交区重叠，并作为撤退空间和工作区使用。

This “furniture” is fundamental in the compartmentalization of the social area of the ground floor, dividing the space between entrace area, living room, dinning area and kitchen. The top floor, wich served in other times, for drying grain, is overlocking the social area and works as a retreat space and working area.

这个作品的物质化必须由某种东西制成，同时，它将有一个结构性的作用，并将帮助我轻松地传达这个家具的想法。

The materialization of this piece would have to be made from something that, at the same time, would have a structural role and would help me to communicate easily this idea of furniture.

由于OSB的结构特点和可塑性，选择使用OSB这种生态和经济的材料是非常容易的。我知道，用这种材料我可以制作这个模型的所有单一元素–墙壁、门、厨房和储藏柜、楼梯，甚至模型顶部的地板。我使用的是3型OSB，它可以支持高水平的湿度–当你想在潮湿的地方使用它时，这是一个重要的细节。

The choice of using OSB, an ecological and economic material, was quite easy, due to its structural characteristics and its plasticity. I knew, that with this material I could make all the single elements from this model – walls, doors, kitchen and storage cabinets, stairs and even the floor on the top of the model. I use the type 3 of OSB, that can support high levels of humidity – an important detail when you want to use it in humid areas.
