最初的方法是基于利用场地提供的品质,因为它有一个天然的泉水在财产的中心,有大叶子的热带树木,受益于它,并有一个非常特殊的地形,对于一个通常是平坦的地区。

The original approach is based on taking advantage of the qualities offered by the site, since it has a natural spring in the center of the property, with tropical trees with large foliage that benefit from it, and with a very peculiar topography for a region that is usually flat.

房子采用 “L “形设计,在单层中解决,目的是向现有的水体开放,并利用丛林的景色,朝向北方。房子主要是一个狭窄的部分,以利用自然光和交叉通风在其每个空间。热带环境是主角,即使是四间卧室的浴室也是在私人露天庭院中解决的。

Resolved in a single level with an “L” shaped design, the house aims to open up to the existing body of water and take advantage of the views of the jungle, with a north orientation. The house is mainly of a narrow section, to uses natural light and cross ventilation in each of its spaces. The tropical environment is the protagonist, where even the bathrooms of each of the four bedrooms are resolved in private open-air patios.

连接整个房子的主走廊也是一个大露台,参考了墨西哥的庄园和乡间别墅,这些类型的空间通常有双重功能,连接和作为一个生活区。房子被解决在一个层面上,允许有高的天花板,有更凉爽的内部空间和宽阔的外部视野。

The main hallway, which connects the entire house, also functions as a large terrace, referencing Mexican haciendas and country houses, where these types of spaces usually serve a dual function, to connect and serve as a living area. The house being resolved on a single level allows for high ceilings, to have cooler interior spaces and wide views toward the exterior.

房子是100%自给自足的,用电池和太阳能电池板生产能源,用湿地网络处理污水,并通过过滤和软化设备利用现场的水。同样地,该物业77%的表面积已经被预先存在的树木和植被保护起来。

The house is 100% self-sufficient, producing its energy with batteries and solar panels, treating its sewage with a network of wetlands, and taking advantage of the site’s water through filtration and softening equipment. Likewise, 77% of the property’s surface area has been conserved with preexisting trees and vegetation.

该项目使用了当地的建筑解决方案和饰面,如石灰石和chukum;然而,木材是使用的主要元素。我们相信,正如钢铁和混凝土是20世纪的建筑材料一样,木材将是21世纪的材料。

Local construction solutions and finishes such as limestone and chukum are used for the project; however, wood is the main element used. We believe that, just as steel and concrete were the construction materials of the 20th century, wood will be the material of the 21st century.

因为它是一种可再生资源,重量轻,碳排放量低,而且物理特性使其成为承受该地区气候条件的理想材料。同样,它的美学特性有助于创造一个温暖舒适的环境,并证明对居住在这些类型空间的人的健康有益。

Since it is a renewable resource, lightweight, with a lower carbon footprint, and physical properties that make it ideal for withstanding the climatic conditions of the region. Likewise, its aesthetic characteristics help to create a warm and comfortable environment, with proven benefits for the health of those who inhabit these types of spaces.

热带之家 “是一个延伸到整个景观的项目,寻求捕捉场地提供的美丽。这是一个种植在地面上的建筑,作为自然环境的旁观者,其材料和饰面与周围环境相融合,每个空间都提供了一个断开联系、放松和享受的机会。

Casa Tropical is a project that extends throughout the landscape, seeking to capture the beauty that the site offers. It is a building that is planted on the ground as a spectator of the natural context, with materials and finishes that blend with the surroundings, and where each space offers an opportunity to disconnect, relax, and enjoy.
