巴特洛之家是对地中海光线的致敬:它的光、影以及天空和海洋的颜色。中央庭院捕获了所有地中海的光线,并将其垂直分布到房子的所有角落,无论它们有多偏远。从深色到浅色的蓝色渐变,使光线在垂直方向的旅行中得到补充,并确保它不会失去其色素。

Casa Batlló is a homage to the light of the Mediterranean: its light, shadow, and colors of the sky and sea. The central courtyard captures all that Mediterranean light and distributes it vertically to all the corners of the house, no matter how remote they are. The color gradation from darker to lighter blue doses the light in its vertical travel and makes sure it does not lose its pigments.

在我们的项目中,我们想谈论这种对光线的天才利用;确保每一位游客在离开巴特罗之家时都能欣赏到这种品质,而不是对其令人难以置信的形状、工艺和象征意义的赞叹。我们想以一种抽象的方式做到这一点。通过这种抽象的方式,摆脱了房子的颜色、材料和历史层面的影响,我们心无旁骛地谈论光的概念。

In our project we wanted to talk about that genius use of light; making sure every single visitor leaves Casa Batlló having appreciated such qualities, independently of the admiration towards its incredible shapes, craftsmanship, and symbolic allu¬sions. And we wanted to do it in an abstract way. Through this abstraction, free of the colors, materials, and historical dimen¬sion of the house, we talk without distractions and nostalgia about the concept of light.

为现有的紧急楼梯设想内部空间,这也是Casa Batlló的每一位访客都必须经过的,这似乎是一个非常困难的挑战。通过将这一楼梯的垂直发展与中央天井的存在联系起来,既从顶部到底部穿透了房子,又组织了参观的主要流线,我们看到了在它们之间建立对话的可能性。我们为楼梯设计的这个空间构成了对Casa Batlló天井的思考和对话。

Envisioning the interior for an existing emergency stair, that also had to be transited by every single visitor of Casa Batlló, appeared as a very difficult challenge to address. It was by relating the vertical development of this stair with the presence of the central patio, both piercing the house from top to bot¬tom and organizing the main fluxes of the visit, that we saw the possibility to establish a dialog between them. This space we have designed for the stair poses a reflection and a dialog with the patio of Casa Batlló.

在一个几乎没有自然光开口的封闭的盒子里,如何谈论光线?我们想象这个空间穿着铝制的链式窗帘,通过其细致的材料捕捉光线,就像渔网一样,呈现出所有不同的形状:光泽、剪影、阴影……因此,避免使用任何其他材料,并通过这些窗帘抹去盒子和楼梯的存在,我们实现了谈论光线,只有光线。

How to talk about light in an enclosed box with almost no openings for natural light? We have imagined this space dressed in aluminum chain cur¬tains, that through its meticulous materiality catches the light, like fishing nets, presenting it in all its different shapes: shines, silhouettes, shadows… Thus, avoiding the use of any other material and with these curtains erasing the presence of the box and its stair, we achieve talking about light and only light.

铝的不同色调是有组织的,从屋顶上的明亮开始,慢慢变暗,直到到达地下室的前煤窖的深处时变成黑色。通过这种淡淡的渐变,让人想起天井中的色彩使用,一种新的语法,没有文字,讲述了一个沿着整个路线展开的故事。从屋顶开始到地下室结束,从天空到地面,从光到影……一切都用光来解释,就像房子固有的新语法。

The different shades of the aluminum are organized starting from brighter on the rooftop and slowly darkening until becom¬ing black when reaching the depths of the former coal cellar in the basement. With this light gradation that recalls the use of colour in the patio, a new grammar without words tells a story that unfolds along the whole route. Starting from the roof and finishing in the basement, from the sky to the ground, from light to shadow… and everything explained just with light, like a new grammar inherent to the house.

如果说高迪的Casa Batlló项目是对地中海式灯光的致敬,那么我们的项目则是对他在Casa Batlló中使用灯光的致敬。

If the project of Gaudi for Casa Batlló was a homage to Med¬iterranean light, our project is a homage to his use of light in Casa Batlló.
