这个地方提出了一个乡土建筑的集合:一个古老的小教堂,一个地窖,形成一个天然的圆形剧场的台阶,古老的果园,和梯田式花园。除了它在村子里的中心位置,这里还提供了许多关于葡萄种植景观的观点。

The site proposes a collection of vernacular architectures: an old chapel, a cellar, steps forming a natural amphitheater, old orchards, and terraced gardens. Besides its central position in the village, the place also offers many views on the wine-growing landscape.

整个呈现出许多奇异的物体,群岛,在其自然环境中。这些建筑已经有了与它们的锚定地点、它们的历史、它们的传统概念和它们的超物质性相关的品质。

The whole presented many singular objects, archipelagos, in their natural context. These architectures already had qualities linked to their anchoring to the site, their history, their traditional conception, and to their hyper materiality.

然而,建筑元素和它们的环境之间的联系只是部分存在的,场地在没有协商的情况下遭受了许多改造,使它失去了与景观的联系。

However the link between the architectural elements and their environment existed only partially, the site had suffered many transformations without consultation, making it lose its link to the landscape.

在记忆的基础上,我们的建议赋予这些实体以可视性,并使其在村子里的结构性作用更加清醒。小教堂重新获得了它的自主权,凹陷的扩展部分被嫁接到它身上,赋予它新的用途(展览、宴会空间、厨房、仓库、卫生设施、冬季花园)。地窖被修复,它的新地板被延伸到这个地方;这个地方的极限被一个混凝土座椅处理,它引出了它的终点,邀请游客进入这个地方,让他们以沉思的方式拥抱整个画面。

Working on memory, our proposal gives these entities their visibility and their structuring role within the village with sobriety. The chapel regains its autonomy, recessed extensions are grafted to it, assigning it new uses (exhibitions, banquet space, kitchen, storage, sanitary facilities, winter garden). The cellar is rehabilitated, and its new floor is extended to the place; the limit of the place is treated by a concrete seat which draws its end, inviting visitors into the site and allowing them to embrace the whole picture, in a contemplative way.
