Terra House位于大自然之中,位于Serra do Cipó地区,距离首都贝洛奥里藏特大约120公里。这片土地的地形几乎是平坦的,有几棵木薯树–这些树在冬天会掉叶子,而在夏天会保持绿色的树冠–并且一边与环境保护区接壤,那里有一片广阔的原生森林。

Terra House is in the middle of nature, at the Serra do Cipó region, approximately 120km from the capital Belo Horizonte. With practically a flat topography, the land has several mastic trees – which in the winter lose their leaves and, in the summer, keep their green crowns – and has borders, on one side, with an environmental protection area that has an extensive native forest.

在第一次访问这个地方后,人们清楚地认识到保持土地的自然特征和与森林建立紧密关系的重要性,在这里将来不会有邻居。此外,土地的中心部分,具有最好的环境特征,应该保持完整。因此,它的实施和它的概念是作为对这种理解的回答。

After the first visit to the place, it became clear the importance of maintaining the natural characteristics of the land and creating an intense relationship with the forest, where there will be no neighbors in the future. In addition, the central part of the land, with the best environmental characteristics, should remain intact. Thus, its implementation and its concept were given as answers to this understanding.

这座房子是由一对年轻夫妇建造的,用于周末使用,因为他们住在贝洛奥里藏特市的一个公寓里。出于这个原因,项目的前提之一是通过与自然的紧密联系,创造一个断开联系和休息的地方。为此,植入和流通的逻辑被颠倒了。在他们居住的公寓里,他们在两面墙之间的封闭走廊里从社会区域循环到私密区域。在房子里,他们可以沿着花园里的小路从一个地方到另一个地方,或者在雨天,在一个天棚下。从这种与大地、草和树的强烈接触中,产生了土壤之家这个名字。

The house was built by a young couple for use on the weekends, as they live in an apartment in the city of Belo Horizonte. For this reason, one of the project’s premises was to create a place of disconnection and rest, through intense contact with nature. For that, the implantation and circulation logic was inverted. In the apartment they live in, they circulate from the social area to the intimate area in a closed corridor between two walls. At the house, they can go from one place to another along a path in the garden or, in the case of rainy days, under a canopy. From this intense contact with the earth, grass and trees came to the name Soil House.

它的实施策略是从质疑土地的哪些部分不应该被占用,哪些部分应该被维护中产生的,颠覆了首先考虑建造什么的逻辑。为了保持地面上的所有植被,该方案被分布在一个流动的板块下,通过树木之间的空隙展开。

Its implementation strategy was created from questioning which parts of the land should not be occupied and what should be maintained, reversing the logic of thinking first in what to build. In order to maintain all the vegetation on the ground, the program was distributed under a fluid slab that unfolds through the empty spaces between the trees.

厨房是周末住宅中最重要的空间,它和游泳池一起位于地块的中心位置。主人套房在后面,以获得更多的隐私,两间客卧和客厅在地块的前面。所有这些空间都面对着森林的景色,并寻求加强身体与自然元素的接触,如开放式的浴室,可以在树冠下沐浴。

The kitchen, which is the most important space in a weekend home, was located, along with the swimming pool, in the center of the plot. The master suite is at the back, for more privacy, and the two guest bedrooms and living room are at the front of the lot. All these spaces are facing the view of the forest and seek to intensify the body’s contact with natural elements, such as the open bathroom, where it is possible to bathe under the canopy of the trees.
