位置。房子位于葡萄牙,更确切地说,是在Almacinha村。该地块在斜坡上,面向Aguieira大坝。

Location. The house is located in Portugal, more specifically in the village of Almacinha. The plot is on the slope facing the Aguieira dam.

概念。我们把房子想象成地面上的一块现有岩石,上面覆盖着植被。然后我们对这块石头进行雕刻,挖掘空间并切割窗户。这样一来,房子就以三个外墙和一个开凿的入口天井的形式伪装在景观中。

Concept. We imagined the house as an existing rock on the ground covered with vegetation. We then sculpted this stone, excavating the spaces and cutting the windows. The house thus appears camouflaged in the landscape with three facades and an excavated entrance patio.

建筑组织。入口位于开挖的北院,面向街道。在东面的立面,我们可以看到汽车入口。房间都面向南面和西面的景观,并受益于一个连续的门廊。客厅和厨房位于俯瞰山谷的岩石的角落里。一些空间,如洗衣房和浴室接受顶光。

Architectural Organization. The entrance is located In the excavated north courtyard facing the street. On the east facade, we find the car entrance. The rooms are all facing the south and west landscape and benefit from a continuous porch. The living room and kitchen are located on the corner of the rock overlooking the valley. Some spaces such as laundry and bathrooms receive overhead light.

生态学。环境问题是根本。整个立面的一半与大地接触,再加上植被覆盖,大大增加了房屋的热惯性。被动式系统是基于夏季的遮阳和冬季的辐射优势。我们认真对待与气候变化的斗争,对我们来说,所有的建筑都必须是可持续的,并且是节能的。

Ecology. Environmental concerns were fundamental. Half of the entire façade is in contact with the earth, which, combined with the vegetation cover, greatly increases the thermal inertia of the house. The passive system is based on shading during the summer and taking advantage of radiation during the winter. We take the fight against climate change seriously and for us all architecture has to be sustainable, and energy efficient.

建筑。结构和主要的房屋装饰都是用钢筋混凝土,从而显示了我们对房屋的岩石概念。整个外墙和室内地板的装修都是混凝土的。天花板和内墙也被涂成白色,因为我们希望房子的热效率高。因此,我们设计了一个双层墙,在整个周边都有空气和保温层,产生巨大的热效率。

Construction. The structure and main house finish are in reinforced concrete, thus showing the concept of a rock that we wanted for the house. The entire façade and the interior floor finishing are in concrete. The ceilings and interior walls are also painted white as we wanted the house to be thermally efficient. As such, we designed a double wall with air and thermal insulation around the entire perimeter, there for generating enormous thermal efficiency.

综合性。在每个项目中,我们都喜欢对概念提出质疑,并将其推到极限。在这里,我们想质疑建筑和景观之间的界限,并使其绝对淡化。同时,建设性的决定与概念是不可分割的。同样地,环境的可持续性也与建筑本身密不可分。总之,在这个小而简单的项目中,建筑和景观、概念和施工、生态和经济融合在一起,成为绝对不可分割的。

Synthesis. In each project, we like to question concepts and push them to the limit. Here we wanted to question the boundary between architecture and landscape and make it absolutely diluted. In parallel, constructive decisions are inseparable from the concept. Likewise, environmental sustainability is also inextricable from the architecture itself. In short, in this small and simple project, architecture and landscape, concept and construction, ecology and economy merge and become absolutely inseparable.
