这座为一对工程师夫妇和他们的两个孩子建造的房子位于最近人口密集的郊区中间,可能是任何地方,它的平面图是方形的,分为不对称的四角形,螺旋式上升到四层楼高。

In the middle of a recently populated suburban area which could be anywhere, this house for a couple of engineers and their two children has a square floor plan divided into asymmetrical quadrants that spiral up to a height of four storeys.

四个台阶(增加了70厘米的高度)将一个象限与另一个象限分开。在划分室内的可居住墙的交汇处安装了一个螺旋楼梯,它有一个中央楼梯间,有规则的台阶,没有楼板。

Four steps (which add 70 cm in height) separate one quadrant from the next. Installed at the intersection of the habitable walls that divide the interior is a spiral staircase with a central stairwell, regular steps and no landings.

要在一个封闭的空间和下一个空间之间移动,有两条路线:楼梯,它的功能是作为一条对角线的捷径,与角落相交,以及另一条较温和的路线,连接每个封闭空间的中心。总共有12个不同层次的平台,其中360度的旋转相当于一整层楼。

To move between one enclosed space and the next there are two routes: the stairs, which function as a diagonal short cut that intersects the corners, and another gentler one that connects the centers of each enclosed space. In total there are twelve platforms at different levels, in which a rotation of 360 degrees is equivalent to a whole floor.

上升的序列在不同的家庭功能之间建立了不同程度的亲密性和接近性,这些功能从地面上的厨房或几个餐厅延伸到房子顶部的卧室或书房。这种分层导致了某些房间根据一天中的时间被激活,并在整个中央空间形成了一种家庭互动。

The ascending sequence establishes varying degrees of intimacy and proximity between the different domestic functions, which extend from the kitchen or a couple of dining rooms at the ground level to the bedrooms or the study in the top part of the house. This stratification leads to the activation of certain rooms according to the time of day and a sort of family interaction throughout the central void.

除了包含后花园泥土的底座外,这座木制房屋由中央楼梯支撑,这是一个由折叠板和四根钢筋混凝土柱子组成的坚固实体,贯穿整个体量的高度。在它的底部,楼梯的中心与房子的对角线入口相吻合。

这个复合的、不相称的柱子的巨大存在被一个几乎是临时性的梁和柱子的脚手架所包含,这些梁和柱子都是经过处理的木头,两面都有镶板。外立面有一块通风的木板和轻质框架的玻璃板。

Except for the base, which contains the earth of the back garden, this wooden house is supported on the central staircase, a robust entity of folded slabs and four reinforced concrete columns that rise through the entire height of the volume. At its base, the center of the staircase coincides with the diagonal entrance to the house.

The massive presence of this composite, disproportionate column is contained by an almost provisional scaffolding of beams and columns of treated wood faced with paneling on both sides. The outer façade is lined with a ventilated sheet of boards and lightly framed glass panels.
