挑战是在Serra da Estrela自然公园创建一个基于社区生活理念的健康和正念中心，该公园是联合国教科文组织的全球地质公园，也是葡萄牙最古老和最大的保护区。所选择的地产已经包括了一些预先存在的建筑，尽管有许多限制因素，限制了对保护区的任何干预，但仍允许开发该项目。
The challenge was to create a wellness and mindfulness center based on the idea of community life at Serra da Estrela Nature Park, a UNESCO Global Geopark site and Portugal’s oldest and largest conservation area. The chosen property already included a number of preexisting buildings, which allowed developing the project despite the many constraints that limit any intervention in a conservation area.
葡萄牙新生活组织希望充分利用该物业的良好条件，提供冥想、瑜伽、咨询、教练、健身、自然和正念活动。因此，各种设施的设计目标是在景观和周围的自然环境与健康概念之间建立密切的关系，将其最大化。
The New Life Portugal wanted to make the most of the property’s excellent conditions to offer meditation, yoga, counselling, coaching, fitness, nature and mindfulness activities. So, the various facilities were designed with the goal of establishing a close relationship between the views and the surrounding nature and the concept of wellness, maximizing it.
古老的 “昆塔 “的传统建筑被改造成住宿单元，而社区设施的方案是设计现代建筑的主题。对废墟的改造意味着它们的扩展，重点是使用软木–一种具有最佳隔热特性和优秀审美潜力的天然材料–来标志新旧之间的差异。
The traditional buildings of the old “quintas” were transformed into accommodation units, while the program for the community facilities was the theme for designing contemporary buildings. Transforming the ruins implied their expansion, focused on the use of cork – a natural material that has optimal thermal insulation characteristics and an excellent aesthetic potential – to mark the difference between the old and the new.
对10个原有的废墟进行翻修，可以创造出4个住宅群，共有49个私人套房单元，为保证隐私和社区生活的平衡结合而定制。社区设施包括一个多功能的社区中心、一个冥想厅和一个治疗中心，以及接待楼。
The refurbishment of the 10 preexisting ruins allowed creating 4 residential clusters with a total of 49 private ensuite units, customized in order to guarantee a balanced combination of privacy and community life. The community facilities include a multifunctional community center, a meditation hall and a therapy center, in addition to the reception building.
多功能社区中心以放松和休闲为主，是社区的社交中心，包括一个餐厅、一个休息区、一个健身房（也用于研讨会、瑜伽课程和会议）、一个室外温水游泳池、一个桑拿房和一个按摩室。
The multifunctional community center, focused on relaxing and unwinding, is the social hub of the community, comprising a dining hall, a lounge area, a gym (which is also used for workshops, yoga sessions and meetings), an outdoor heated swimming pool, a sauna and a massage room.
令人惊叹的冥想大厅提供了山谷的全景。它位于庄园最高的地方之一，通过充分利用埃斯特雷拉山（Serra da Estrela）的美景，为冥想、瑜伽和心智活动创造完美的氛围。
The stunning meditation hall offers panoramic views over the valley. It is located at one of the highest sites of the property and creates the perfect atmosphere for meditation, yoga and mindfulness activities by making the most of the beauty of Serra da Estrela.
治疗中心包括一些房间，用于一对一的咨询和生活辅导课程，以及其他治疗活动，确保恢复性治疗所需的宁静和舒适。这种现代性与葡萄牙传统建筑和材料的结合，促进了与大自然的强烈交流，邀请客人在寻求身体和心灵的平衡时感受到一种开放的感觉。
The therapy center comprises a number of rooms for one-on-one counselling and life coaching sessions, among other therapeutic activities, ensuring the necessary tranquility and comfort for restorative healing. This combination of modernity and traditional Portuguese architecture and materials, that fosters a strong communion with Nature, invites guests to feel a sense of openness in their search for balance between body and mind.
