有人说，瑜伽是身体和心灵的结合。我们的工作是找到一个可以做到这一点的地方，创造一个舒适和灵活的空间来练习运动，以及一个温暖和平静的冥想环境。

It is said that yoga is the union of body and mind. Our job was to find a place where this was possible, creating a comfortable and flexible space to practice sports as well as a warm and calm environment for meditation.

最初的空间是一张空白的画布，一个狭长的地板，我们决定根据商定的需求将其划分为三个部分。组织元素是位于场地中间的一个模块，由暴露的砖块隔断组成，在地板上画出一条断裂的路径，使流通空间更加流畅。这里是服务设施的所在地：厕所、更衣室和仓库储存区。

The initial space was a blank canvas, a long and narrow floor that we decided to divide into three sections according to the agreed needs. The organizing element is a module located in the middle of the premises made up of exposed brick partitions that draw a broken path in the floor and give greater fluidity to the circulation space. This is where the services are located: toilets, changing rooms, and the warehouse storage area.

反过来，这个元素划定了两个主要空间，一个用作茶馆和接待处，位于房舍的前面，另一个用于练习瑜伽，位于背景。这样，就有可能获得连续性，因为每个区域都以一种自然的方式连接到前一个和下一个区域。

In turn, this element delimits the two main spaces, one used as a teahouse and reception at the front of the premises, and the other for the practice of yoga and located in the background. This way, it is possible to get continuity since each area connects to the previous one and to the next in a natural way.

为了创造理想的环境，我们使用了一系列的材料和建筑技术，使空间变得温暖和简单。这就是为什么我们决定使用最自然状态的材料：木材、有缺陷的混凝土，以及与暴露的装置和工业风格水龙头相结合的砖块。因此，这个地方的本质集中在自然本身和它所传递的和平。

With the aim of creating the desired environment, we use a series of materials and construction techniques that give warmth and simplicity to space. That is why we decided to use the materials in their most natural state: wood, concrete with its imperfections, and brick combined with exposed installations and industrial-style taps. Thus, the essence of this place is focused on nature itself and the peace that it transmits.

通过设计，我们希望反映出瑜伽的哲学，而家具在这里起到了基本的作用。例如，茶室的连续吧台创造了一个信任的环境，而在教室里储存材料的架子则有助于创造秩序和清洁。与太阳的联系在瑜伽练习中是必不可少的，所以我们决定在位于这里最重要区域的镜子的形状和照明中使用这种象征意义。

Through design, we wanted to reflect the philosophy of yoga and the furniture plays a fundamental role here. For example, the continuous bar of the tearoom creates an environment of trust, and the shelves to store the material in the classroom contribute to creating order and cleanliness. The connection with the sun is essential in the practice of yoga so we decided to use this symbolism in the shape and lighting of the mirrors located in the most important areas of the place.

照明在该项目中也发挥了基本作用。在这个意义上，我们的目标是用大窗户加强自然光的进入，用适应不同环境的人工照明加以补充。

Lighting also plays a fundamental role in the project. In this sense, the objective was to enhance the entry of natural light with large windows, complementing it with artificial lighting, adapted to the different environments.

简而言之，该项目象征着一个旅程，在那里，用户一进入就抛开了快速的生活节奏，通过身体和心灵逐渐与空间联系起来。

In short, the project symbolizes a journey where, upon entering, the user leaves behind the fast pace of life and gradually connects with space through body and mind.
