在这个项目中，我们为西班牙音乐家和表演者Niño de Elche翻新了位于马德里Lavapiés社区的一套44平方米的公寓。我们采用了四种策略。

In this project, a 44m2 apartment in the Lavapiés neighborhood of Madrid was refurbished for Niño de Elche, a Spanish musician, and performer. We have employed four strategies:

一）尽可能多地保留原有的元素。浴室和厨房的所有地砖和原始墙砖都被保留下来。所有的表面压痕或其他不规则的地方都没有被隐藏。90%的厨房设备被保留了下来；尽管这些设备的几何形状和表面处理，按照当代霸权主义的想象，通常被认为是不可取的，有仿木表面处理、新浪漫主义的把手和异质的几何形状，但这些设备状况良好，完全可以重复使用，包括电冰箱。这些作品没有被扔掉，而是简单地刷了一层油漆，从而减少了翻新所产生的瓦砾和废物的数量。公寓中看似 “最丑陋 “的部分–厨房–被改造成一件艺术品，成为家中一个新的、令人惊讶的雕塑元素。

I) Retaining as much of the preexisting elements as possible. All the floor tiles and the original wall tiles of the bathroom and kitchen have been preserved. None of the surface indentations or other irregularities have been hidden. 90% of the kitchen units have been kept; despite these having geometries and finishes that are often considered aesthetically undesirable according to contemporary hegemonic imaginaries, with imitation wood finishes, neo-Romantic handles, and heterogeneous geometries, these were in good condition and perfectly reusable, including the refrigerator. Rather than throwing them out, these pieces were simply refreshed with a coat of paint, thus reducing the amount of rubble and waste generated by the refurbishment. The seemingly ‘ugliest’ part of the apartment – the kitchen – was converted into an objet de désir, a new and surprising sculptural element within the home.

二）创造一个大量的存储空间，它将是灵活的、低成本的和多价的。我们构建了一个基于金属架的系统，该金属架围绕着公寓的周边，支撑着木质架子。这些都是由放置黑胶唱片的盒子、扬声器的支架、吉他的壁挂和其他为这个项目设计的辅助支撑物以及床下的小型存储空间补充的。与架子平行，有一个轨道，上面挂着各种独立的窗帘，允许多种配置，以隐藏或显示存储的对象，并能够产生，如果需要的话，小型 “家庭舞台”。这座房子可以作为一个具象的、多重叙述的空间，也可以作为一个抽象的、明显的 “哑巴 “空间。窗帘的半透明性重新绘制了原始建筑的几何形状。储存单元也起到了隔音的作用。

II) Creating a large amount of storage space that would be flexible, low cost, and polyvalent. We constructed a system based on metal racks all around the perimeter of the apartment which support wooden shelves. These are complemented by boxes for vinyl records, brackets for speakers, wall hangers for guitars, and other auxiliary supports designed for this project, as well as small storage space underneath the bed. Parallel to the shelves, there is a rail on which various separate curtains hang, allowing for multiple configurations to hide or reveal the stored objects, and to be able to generate, if so desired, small ‘domestic stages’. The house can work as a figurative, multi-narrative space or as an abstract, apparently ‘mute’ space. The translucency of the curtains redraws the geometry of the original architecture. The storage units also serve as acoustic insulation.

三）允许使用多方位的照明系统来改变氛围。使用日常家用物品创造了几种类型的发光器，如拖把排水器、筛子、漏斗和各种不同颜色的柑橘榨汁机。每个单元都可以独立启动，很像一串变色灯泡。通过窗帘的银色材料的光泽和透明度以不同的方式放大，这些发光体产生了各种室内气氛。显然，平凡的家用物品创造了一个新的、可改造的景观。家可以是一个孤独、和平和安宁的地方，也可以是一个色情的天堂，一个社交的、节日的空间，等等。

III) Allowing for changes in ambiance using a multifaceted system of illumination. Several types of luminaries were created using everyday household objects, such as mop drainers, sieves, funnels, and citrus juicers of various different colors. Each unit can be activated independently, much like a string of color-changing lightbulbs. Amplified in different ways through the gloss and transparency of the silver-colored material of the curtains, these luminaries generate a variety of interior atmospheres. Apparently, mundane household objects create a new, transformable landscape. The home can be a place of solitude, peace, and tranquility, or an erotic haven, a social, festive space, and so on.

四) 通过可移动的家具使不同的用途成为可能。一张带轮子的桌子，其腿是由废旧木片制成的，可作为餐桌或工作桌。沙发可以从一个地方滚到另一个地方，通过重新配置它的坐垫，可以作为一个躺椅来阅读。放在床的旁边，这两件家具变成了一张社交床，并作为不同身体姿势的软地形。一个屏幕可以从天花板上放下或升起，把这个地形变成一个观看视频投影的小礼堂，或者把客厅变成一个多媒体工作室。因此，整个客厅卧室是一个可改造的空间。

IV) Enabling different usages through movable furniture. A table on wheels, with legs built from waste wood pieces, serves as a dining table or worktable. The sofa can be rolled from one spot to another and, by reconfiguring its cushions, used as a chaise longue to read on. Placed next to the bed, the two pieces of furniture transform into a social bed, and serve as a soft topography for different bodily positions. A screen can be lowered or raised from the ceiling, turning this topography into a small auditorium to watch video projections or the living room into a multimedia studio. The whole living room bedroom is thus a transformable space.

建筑提供了一个多种选择的系统，是居民根据他们的日常生活方式来设计他们的家（们）。房子是一个多用途的平台，一个蜕变的天堂。

Architecture offers a system of multiple options, and it is the inhabitant who designs their home(s) according to the way they live their day-to-day life. The house is a multi-use platform, a moulting haven.
