花园-办公室或办公室-花园。这是改造原有房间的基础–12平方米,有一扇小窗,两扇门,面向前面的后方–Oficina Cotí。

Garden-Office or Office-Garden. That was the basis for the renovation of the original room – 12 m², with a small window, two doors, and facing the front setback – that housed Oficina Cotí.

这个建筑工作室的设计在建筑空间上呈现了其创作的概念–和背景。Cotí来自葡萄牙语的 “cotidiano”,可自由翻译为 “日常事务”,以及对大量力量和运动存在于普通事物中的理解。设计这个空间的过程与城市规划的硕士学位同时发生,这种背景导致这两件事之间的界限被拉长,并以某种方式捆绑在一起。[空间的渗透性;与周围环境的联系;社会互动、对抗和思想交流的场所]。

The design of this architectural office workshop rendered the concept – and context – of its creation on the built space: Cotí comes from the Portuguese word “cotidiano”, freely translated as “everyday routine”, and from the understanding that a large amount of strength and movement resides in the ordinary. The process of designing this space happened side by side with a master’s degree in urban planning, a context that led the boundaries between these two things to be stretched and tied up together in a way. [Spatial permeability; connection with the surroundings; place of social interaction, confrontation, and ideas Exchange].

从这个观点出发,布局上的主要变化集中在开口处。原来的通道被改造成了一个固定的窗户,而现有的朝南的窗户则让位于一个大型的玻璃推拉门,将建筑区域与花园连接起来。室内12平方米和天井20平方米的比例加强了花园办公室的概念,特别是在视觉和物理上的连接。

Starting from this viewpoint, the main changes on the layout were focused on the openings: The original access was converted on a fixed window, and the existing window, facing South, gave way to a large sliding glass door that links the built area to the Garden. The proportion of 12 m² for the indoors and 20 m² for the patio strengthens the concept of a Garden-office, especially when connected both visually and physically.

花园的侧墙是用空心混凝土块建造的,允许光线和阴影流过,最重要的是,保证了与周围环境的联系:一个小型工作仓库,里面有金属制品、木制品和绘画。这两个动机给空间带来了活力的概念,首先是由投射的影子执行的编排,在一天和几个月中都是不同的,其次是与施工过程的接近,这是建筑创作和日常创新的内在要求。

The side wall of the garden was built using hollow concrete blocks, allowing the light and the shadows to flow through and, above all, guaranteeing the connection to the immediate environment: a small work warehouse, that holds metalwork, woodwork, and painting. Both motivations bring the notion of vitality to the space, starting from the choreography executed by the cast shadows, different throughout the days and months, and, second, from the proximity with construction processes, intrinsic to architecture creation and for the daily inventiveness.

在内部,布局是精简和多用途的。家具考虑了工作站,也用于会议,一个储存样品、参考材料和设备的单元,以及一个用于素描、建立模型和其他手工活动的轻型桌子。

Internally, the layout is lean and multipurpose. The furniture contemplates workstations, also destined for meetings, a storage unit for samples, reference material, and equipment, and a light table used for sketching, building models, and other manual activities.

所采用的材料遵循一个中性色调,除了应用的纹理、光线和阴影外,还构成了空间,并为创造性的过程开辟了道路。混凝土、砾石、白色、灰色……和花园。

The adopted materials follow a neutral color palette that, in addition to the applied textures, light, and shadows, constitute the space and open the way to the creative processes. Concrete, gravel, white, gray… and garden.
