“哥斯达黎加冲浪酒店将过去和现在结合起来，反映出海滨城市的低调气氛”
“Costa Rica Surf Hotel combines past and present to reflect low-key atmosphere of beach town”
概述
哥斯达黎加Nosara镇的Playa Guiones长期以来一直被广大的国际冲浪者称为隐蔽的宝石，是白色沙滩和恒定海浪的非主流天堂。几十年前，镇上的第一座木头房子建在靠近海滩的地方，随着时间的推移，这个简单的结构成为流浪的冲浪者的完美休息场所，也成为音乐、食物和互动的聚会场所。Gilded Iguana就这样诞生了。
Overview
Playa Guiones, in the town of Nosara, Costa Rica has long been known by the wider international community of surfers as a hidden gem and off-grid paradise of white sand beaches and constant waves. Decades ago the first wooden house in town was built close to the beach-break and in time this simple structure became the perfect resting place for transient surfers as well as a gathering venue for music, food, and interaction. The Gilded Iguana was born!
今天，诺萨拉仍然吸引着来自世界各地的狂热的冲浪者，但它也成为瑜伽师、健康社区和寻找健康乐趣和冒险的家庭的目的地。每个人都有一个共同的目标，那就是保护这个地方的自然栖息地和低调朴实的本质。
Studio Saxe受委托对整个Gilded Iguana酒店进行扩建和重新思考，使其成为一个能解决现代舒适问题的目的地，并适应新一波来到该地区的旅行者，同时保留该地丰富的历史意义。
Today Nosara still attracts avid surfers from around the world however it has also become a destination for yogis, the wellness community, and families looking for healthy fun and adventure. Everyone shares a common goal to preserve the natural habitat and the low-key unpretentious essence of the place.
Studio Saxe was commissioned to expand and rethink the entire Gilded Iguana Hotel as a destination that addresses modern comforts and adapts to the new wave of travelers coming to the area whilst preserving the rich historical importance of the location.
概念
与业主一起，我们决定恢复和振兴现有的破旧房屋结构，以纪念它对当地人、旅行者和整个城镇的记忆。现在坐落在那里的新餐厅已经成为该镇最受欢迎的美食、音乐会和一般聚会场所。Gilded Iguana沙滩屋的历史修复也是哥斯达黎加为数不多的承认保护传统热带建筑的重要性的样本之一。
Concept
Together with the owners, we decided to restore and revitalize the existing dilapidated house structure as a tribute to the memory it holds for locals, travelers, and the town at large. The new restaurant that now sits there has already become a town favorite for food, concerts, and general gatherings. The Gilded Iguana beach-house historic restoration is also one of very few samples in Costa Rica that acknowledges the importance of preservation of traditional tropical architecture.
工作室努力用新的结构来补充现有的房子，在现有的树木中，反过来创造一个心脏中心，由一个梦幻般的公共区域–游泳池组成，供所有客人享受。新的房间建筑以及接待处和SPA区域结合了老房子的元素，如简单的木质框架和阳台，以及海滩上常见的典型的手工棕榈茅草 “棕榈树”，用于遮阳。
The studio worked hard to complement the existing house with new structures poised around the property amongst the existing trees and in turn create a heart center framed by a fantastic communal area-pool for all guests to enjoy. The new Room Buildings along with the Reception and SPA areas combine elements of the old house such as the simple wooden frames and balconies with typical hand-made palm thatch “palapas” commonly found on the beach for shade.
“建筑师Benjamin Garcia Saxe解释说。”Gilded Iguana酒店被设计成一个和谐的 “对话”，在过去的热带身份和一个新的调和的、朴实的、永恒的热带现代性之间，柔和地坐落在景观中，反映了最希望保留的轻松的城镇氛围”。
Architect Benjamin Garcia Saxe explains: “The Gilded Iguana Hotel is designed as a harmonious “dialogue” between the tropical identity of the past and a new toned-down, unpretentious, and timeless tropical modernity that sits softly in the landscape and reflects the relaxed town atmosphere which most wish to preserve.”
设计
与拉丁美洲典型的封闭式酒店开发项目相比，The Gilded Iguana的接待区和餐厅完全向诺萨拉镇开放，创造出一种微妙、轻松、朴实的氛围，任何人都可以进来。整个建筑和内饰结合了简单和不加修饰的材料，如柚木、棕榈茅草、黄麻织物和混凝土砖，以及用当地材料和工艺制作的现代热带家具。
Design
In contrast to typical enclosed and hermetic hotel developments in Latin America, the Reception area and Restaurant at The Gilded Iguana completely open up to the town of Nosara creating a subtle, relaxed, and unpretentious atmosphere where anyone can come in. The architecture and interiors throughout combine simple and unpolished materials such as teak, palm thatch, jute fabric, and concrete tiles with modern tropical furniture made with local materials and craftsmanship.
房间建筑根据其方向迎合不同类型的旅客。泳池房是家庭的理想选择，丛林房创造了更多的私人体验，而冲浪房促进了旅行者之间更多的社交互动。每个房间都有一个大的室外露台，把外面的环境带进来，并使卧室与外面紧密相连。私人花园被纳入淋浴间，光与影的游戏不断使每个空间充满了对自然环境的敏锐认识。
Room Buildings cater to a varied type of traveler depending on their orientation. Pool Rooms are ideal for families, Jungle Rooms create a more private experience, and Surfer Rooms promote a more social interaction amongst travelers. Each room has a large outdoor terrace that brings the outside in and allows for bedrooms to be connected strongly to the outside. Private gardens are incorporated into showers and the play of light and shadows constantly fills every space with an acute awareness of the natural environment.
走在镀金鬣蜥的周围，总是有机会接触和交融。工作室沿着整个物业精心布置了座位区以及水站和冲浪板架，这反过来又激起了客人之间的互动，在旅行者中形成了一种更朴实和真实的体验。
Walking around the Gilded Iguana is always an opportunity to encounter and mingle. The studio carefully placed seating areas as well as water stations and surfboard racks along the entire property which in turn provoke interaction amongst guests and a more down-to-earth and authentic experience amongst travelers.
泳池区是镀金鬣蜥酒店客人真正的心脏中心。在这里，阳光和水汇聚在一起，大人和孩子们可以享受热带天气，放松，看书，或玩耍。简单的几何形状和天然的泳池石砖与老房子和周围的新建筑完美结合。
The pool area is truly the heart center for guests at the Gilded Iguana. It is here where the sun and water come together in a place where adults and children can enjoy the tropical weather, relax, read a book, or play. The simple geometry and natural pool stone tiles combine perfectly with the old house and the new structures around the property.
建筑
老房子被完全重组，以满足最新的建筑和安全法规，同时保持其简洁的本质。一个新的混凝土基础支撑着一个钢架，与柚木一起创造了一个简单而高效的建筑方法。新的客房建筑主要由耐用和低维护的煤渣砖核心结构制成，然后在外面用钢和柚木的组合框架来支撑阳台和露台，创造出建筑的主要美感。接待楼和SPA楼通过柚木包覆的钢架与简单的水泥砖和黄麻布天花板，释放出更长的跨度。
Construction
The old house was completely restructured to meet the most current building and safety codes whilst keeping the essence of its simplicity. A new concrete foundation holds a steel frame that works together with teak wood to create a simple and highly efficient building method. The new Room Buildings are made primarily with a durable and low maintenance cinderblock core construction and then engulfed on the outside with a combined steel and teak wood frame that holds balconies and terraces that create the main aesthetic of the architecture. The Reception and SPA buildings liberate longer spans through a steel frame clad in teak wood with simple cement tiles and jute fabric ceilings.
可持续性
Gilded Iguana酒店是通过生物气候设计来构思的，以利用太阳的方向、阴凉、风流和其他因素，通过被动的温度控制策略来创造舒适。此外，萨克斯工作室努力采用积极的可持续技术措施，如通过水处理系统进行水循环，太阳能热水，以及通过光伏发电进行能源利用。当地采购的材料，如来自经认证的可持续发展农场的柚木，以及当地的手工劳动在整个项目中被使用，以在诺萨拉镇产生积极影响，并为社区创造新的就业机会。
Sustainability
The Gilded Iguana Hotel was conceived through Bioclimatic Design to take advantage of solar orientation, shade, wind currents, and others to create comfort through passive strategies of temperature control. Additionally, Studio Saxe worked hard with active sustainable technological measures such as water recycling through water treatment systems, solar hot water, and energy harnessing through photovoltaic. Locally resourced materials, such as teak from certified sustainable farms, and local manual labor was used throughout the project to create a positive impact in the town of Nosara and generate new jobs for the community.
