砖库房是西班牙瓦伦西亚的郊区房屋建筑的原型,它将工业化的建筑方法与传统的工艺相结合。它是由Space Popular应当地开发商的委托,与Estudio Alberto Burgos和Javier Cortinal Maruenda合作设计的。

The Brick Vault House is a prototype for suburban house construction that integrates industrialised construction methods with traditional craftsmanship in Valencia, Spain. It is designed by Space Popular in response to a commission from a local developer, and in collaboration with Estudio Alberto Burgos and Javier Cortinal Maruenda.

砖库房的设计原则是对当地现有的传统和现代建筑技术以及西班牙地中海气候做出回应。它是围绕着一个结构网格系统组织的,这使我们能够解决典型的建筑细节,使未来的房子可以有不同的配置,避免复制,但仍然保持一定程度的标准化。房子的特点是由其结构材料赋予的–绿色钢架和裸露的承重砖拱顶贯穿所有空间,以及其不规则的模块化布局–创造了许多门廊和露台以及不同的景观。这座房子通过采用当地新旧的建筑方法来回应其环境。

The driving design principles of the Brick Vault House respond to regionally available construction techniques –both traditional and contemporary– and the Spanish Mediterranean climate. It is organised around a structural grid system, which allowed us to resolve the typical construction details so that future houses could have different configurations, avoiding replication but still maintaining some level of standardisation. The character of the house is given by its structural materials –the green steel frame and exposed load-bearing brick vaults present throughout all spaces, and its irregular modular layout –creating numerous porches and terraces as well as varying views. The house responds to its context by adopting local construction methods both old and new.

这个砖库房的例子是建在一个倾斜的地块上,这让我们创造了一个体验序列,通过这个序列,房子的规模和特征逐渐显现出来。当你进入一个看起来像半沉的两层楼房时,你会被引导到房子的入口处,这里也是流通核心,你会发现楼梯。在它的周围,不同的空间被组织起来,不需要走廊。变化的楼板创造了丰富的视点序列,因此,在模块化系统中,区域具有非常明显的视觉特征。拥有不同的空间品质和景观,围绕着这些空间品质和景观来构建你的日常生活,是我们所追求的。你早上坐着吃早餐的地方和你下午坐的地方可以有不同的感觉,你的夏季和冬季的日常活动可以利用不同配置的空间。

This instance of Brick Vault House is built on a sloped plot, which allowed us to create an experiential sequence through which the scale and features of the house are revealed progressively. As you enter what looks like a half-sunken two storey house, you are directed towards the entrance of the house which is also the circulation core where you find the staircase. Around it, the different spaces are organised without the need for corridors. The shifting floor plates create a rich sequence of viewpoints, and therefore areas with the very distinct visual character within the modular system. Having a variety of spatial qualities and views around which to structure your daily life is something we strive for. The place where you sit in the morning for breakfast could have a different feel to where you spend your afternoon, and your summer and winter routines could make use of spaces differently configured.

房子的结构由一个绿色的钢制空间框架组成,里面充满了裸露的承重砖拱顶和白色干墙外墙。

The structure of the house consists of a green steel space-frame filled with exposed load-bearing brick vaults and white drywall facades.

钢结构空间框架–100x100mm的方管–遵循375x375cm的平面和316cm的高度的网格,我们发现这对于家庭空间和当地的规划限制是最合适的,并定义了建筑的整体体积。钢结构只需用剪刀式升降机在几天内就在现场搭建完毕,不需要起重机或脚手架。建成后,砖瓦工匠可以将其作为脚手架使用。砖砌拱顶是承重的,浮在钢结构上,与钢结构脱离,每一种材料都可以按自己的速度沉降。这种砖砌拱顶可以追溯到13世纪,19世纪由Rafael Guastavino推广,不需要模板。相反,它依靠石膏的配方,使每块砖都能瞬间粘合到位,无需任何额外的支撑。虽然今天有更快、更有效的板式建筑方法,但我们选择这种系统,是因为它结合了环保材料和促进现场熟练的手工工艺。

The steel space-frame –100x100mm square tube– follows a grid of 375x375cm in plan and 316cm height, which we found to be most appropriate for domestic spaces and local planning constraints and defines the overall volume of the building. The steel structure was put up on site in a matter of days with just a scissor lift, no cranes or scaffolding needed. Once completed, the brick craftsmen could use it as the scaffolding. The brick vaults are load bearing and float over the steel structure, being detached from it so that each material can settle at its own pace. This type of brick vault, which dates back to the 13th century and was popularised by Rafael Guastavino in the 19th century, requires no formwork. Instead, it relies on the recipe of the gesso so that each brick is bonded in place instantly without any additional support. Although there are faster and more efficient slab construction methods today, we chose this system for its combination of environmental materials and the promotion of skilled hand-craft on site.

在网格内,只有部分模块被填充,创造出宽大的室外覆盖区域,允许节能的大窗户在冬季让阳光照射进来,在夏季进行遮挡。这提供了无缝的室内外生活,我们认为这是为温和气候设计时不容错过的机会。格局也是整个房子的统一元素。我们认为,在一个可以轻易辨别出所有方式的空间里,人们会感觉生活得更自在。绿色与植被融为一体,它与天空的色调变化相平衡,而且它是国内室内装修中经常通过室内植物少量出现的颜色。承重的砖砌拱顶成为室内的主要特征,给人以扩张感和轻盈感,以及温暖感。其余的饰面都是基本的、经济的,提供了一块中性的画布,每个住户都可以在上面叠加自己喜欢的风格,让自己成为家。通过这种方式,The Brick Vault House实现了一个平衡,既赋予房子以个性,又为个人定制留下足够的空间。我们试图在照片中描绘一个生活化的房子–由Mariela Apollonio拍摄–通过引入Teulat借给我们的家具–但我们期待着看到房子被居住者改造,事实上,我们认为只有到那时,它才是完整的,最好的。

Within the grid, only some modules are filled, creating generous covered outdoor areas that allow for energy-efficient large windows that let the sun in during winter and are shaded during the summer. This provides seamless indoor-outdoor living, which we consider an opportunity not to be missed when designing for mild climates. The grid is also a unifying element throughout the house. We think one feels more at ease living in spaces where the way it all comes together can be easily discerned. The green blends with the vegetation, it is balanced against the shifting hues of the sky, and it is a colour often found in domestic interiors in small amounts through indoor plants. The load-bearing brick vaults become the main interior feature, giving a sense of expansion and lightness, as well as warmth. The remaining finishes are basic and affordable, providing a neutral canvas over which each tenant can overlay their preferred style and make themselves at home. In this way, The Brick Vault House achieves a balance between giving character to a house and still leaving enough room for personal customisation. We tried to portray a version of a lived house in the photographs –by Mariela Apollonio– by bringing in furniture –kindly lent to us by Teulat– but we look forward to seeing the house transformed by its occupants, in fact, we think it will only be complete and at its best then.
