人口正以每年近2%的速度增长。发展我们日常活动对庇护所的需求在建筑环境中结束。这就必须给好的生活条件,像舒适的空间、自然光、音响等。但是,建筑环境也开始了与前一个问题的对话,自然环境必须是可持续的。

Human population is increasing by almost 2% a year. The need for shelter to develop our daily activities ends in a built environment. This must give good living conditions, like comfortable space, natural light, acoustics, etc. But the built environment also starts a dialogue with the preceding one, the natural environment, which must be sustainable.

所以在我看来,建筑面临两个主要的人类挑战。第一,减少它对自然平衡的影响,第二,为实际和未来的人口建造许多高质量的平方米。我现在作为一名建筑师,在第二个挑战中,试图开发具有良好(真/美)设计的预制系统。

So in my point of view, Architecture faces two main human challenges. First, decreasing its impact over nature’s equilibrium, and second, building many square meters of good quality for an actual and coming population. I am right now as an Architect, in this second challenge, trying to develop prefab systems with good (true/beauty) design.

这就是为什么我选择预制作为构建项目的策略,但也是在设计过程中。假设是,如果你创造了一个具有良好建筑设计的预制系统,那么你可以在短/长生产系列的规律内,尽可能多地复制这种质量。而如果在建筑的系列化工业化生产中感到厌烦,也可以通过系统定制形态和功能。当你加快建造过程,对质量和成本有更多的控制时,会带来更多的好处。

That’s why I selected Prefabrication as a strategy for building my projects, but also during the design process too. The hypothesis is, that if you create a prefabricated system which has a good architectural design, then you can reproduce this quality as much as you need it, within the laws of short/long production series. And if in the serial industrial production of buildings you get bored, you can also customize form and function through the system. More benefits when you fasten the building process and have more control over quality and cost.

黄色是这所房子的第三个名字。首先,它是银屋,因为冬天周围树木的颜色。然后是德萨法萨达1号房子的名字,它与项目的体积组成平面有关。但是当房子变成黄色时,在关于外部覆盖的决定上,这种颜色太强烈了,无法征服房子的最终名称。

Yellow is the third name of this house. First, it was Silvered House, because of the color of the surrounding trees by winter. Then it was Desafasada1 House name, that’s related to the planes of the volumetrical composition of the project. But when the house got to yellow, on the decision about external covering, the color was too powerful to conquer the final name of the house.

在这个项目中,预制系统不仅用于房屋的建筑方面,还用于房屋的设计方式。所以一开始,我选择一个平板面板,作为平面图中的尺寸单位。该面板可以是122 x 244厘米(4×8英尺)、122 x 366厘米或122 x 488厘米。

In this project, the prefabricated system is not only used in the construction aspect of the house, but also in the way the house is designed. So at the beginning, I choose a slab panel, as the dimensional unit in the plan. This panel can be 122 x 244 cm (4×8 feet), 122 x 366 cm or 122 x 488 cm.

Then I transform that slabs to a volume by adding modular walls (244 cm tall) and roof. The result I’ve called it spatial module that is a space defined by two walls and two slabs. Afterward, I adjust room dimension needs, to what’s similar in SlP spatial modules, so the multiplication of these modules creates each room or programmatic modules. At the end of the conceptual design, I order all the programmatic modules by some layout, and there’s a resulting space and form.
