该项目包括一个由三个小公寓组成的小街区,位于巴塞罗那Horta社区老中心的成熟建筑之间的地块上。

The project consists of a small block of three tiny apartments on a plot between established buildings in the old centre of the Horta neighbourhood in Barcelona.

我们在这种城市环境中行动的第一个思考是,设计一个既能保护社区特征又能从现代角度出发的方案。

Our first reflection in acting in this sort of urban environment, so characteristic of the city, is to design a proposal that both conserves the character of the neighbourhood while doing so from a contemporary perspective.

从这个意义上说,面向街道的立面是由该街区常见的元素和比例组成的:阳台、百叶窗、底板、灰泥等。 但我们在其细节和元素的简单性上给了这个立面一个转折,其特别之处在于这些元素之一从立面的周边逃脱。其效果是,一方面,将邻近的地段捆绑起来,这是街道上唯一一个不符合 “睦邻友好 “规则的地段,因为它比允许的楼层多了一层。另一方面,它促进了露台的开放空间,作为另一个生活空间供邻居们享受。

In this sense, the façade facing the street is made up of the usual elements and proportions in the neighbourhood: balconies, blinds, baseboards, stucco, etc. But we give the facade a twist in its details and the simplicity of its elements, with the peculiarity that one of these elements’ escapes from the perimeter of the façade. The effect is, on the one hand, to tie up the neighbouring lot, which is the only one on the street that does not comply with the rules of “good neighbourliness”, as it has one more floor than is allowed. On the other hand, it promotes the open space of the terrace, as another living space for the enjoyment of the neighbours.

该地块的所有尺寸都很紧凑,只允许每层有40平方米的公寓。 鉴于表面的稀缺性,该提案通过一个包括楼梯、厨房和浴室的中央空间来增加住宅的价值。这为两个立面提供了两个平等的空间,一个面向街道,另一个是街区的内部天井。

The plot is tight in all its dimensions, allowing for an apartment of only 40 m2 per floor. Given the scarcity of surface, the proposal adds value to the homes through a central space that includes the staircase, kitchen and bathroom. This provides for two equal spaces on both facades, one faces the street and the other the block’s interior patio.

通过这个解决方案,我们打算为这些空间的使用提供某种不确定因素。它们可以被设置成传统的住宅,一边是双人房,另一边是客厅,或者它们可以提供一个学生公寓风格的共享住宅,有两个对称的空间。

With this solution, we intend to provide a certain indeterminacy in the use of these spaces. They can be set up as a traditional home, with the placement of a double room on one side and a living room on the other, or they can provide for a shared home in the style of a student flat, with two symmetrical spaces.

总结所有不同的组合,在这三座房子里有七种生活方式,七种生活,就像七扇窗户。

Summing up all of the different combinations, there are seven ways of living in these three houses, seven lives, like seven windows.
