这个项目的出发点是两个完全独立的情况。一个是客户花园里的一堆木柴,需要一个地方来堆放和晾晒。另一个是宗教客户希望在他们的房子里有一个沉思和祈祷的地方。

The starting points for this project were two completely independent circumstances. One was a heap of firewood in the client’s garden that needed a place to be stacked and dried. The other was the wish of the religious clients for a place of contemplation and prayer in their house.

木屋的设计结合了这两个不同的愿望。它是客户花园里的一个小的私人礼拜堂,由木柴建成。

The design for the wooden hut combines these two different wishes. It is a small private chapel in the clients’ garden that is built of firewood.

小屋由五个木架组成,木架上堆放着木柴,从而形成外墙。里面舒适昏暗的空间被无数的光线透过原木闪耀的光芒所照耀。随着时间的推移,干木头被使用并被新木头取代,导致小屋的墙壁不断变化。堆叠模式和木材的颜色都在变化。

The hut consists of five wooden frames that are stacked with firewood, thus forming the outer walls. The comfortably dim space inside is spotted by countless rays of light sparkling through the logs. In the course of time, dried wood is being used and replaced by new wood resulting in a constant change in the walls of the hut. The stacking pattern changes as well as the colour of the wood.

空间是由两面墙创造的。它们向入口处敞开,向十字处缩小空间,从而将运动引向内部。深深的屋顶为下面的空间遮阳,而风在夏天穿过小屋。

The space is created by only two walls. They open up towards the entrance and narrow the space towards the cross thus directing the movement to the inside. The deep roof shades the space underneath while the wind passes through the hut in summer.

通过在花园里使用现场的木柴并赋予其新的用途,一个不寻常的空间出现了,就在房子外面几步远的地方,提供了一个远离日常生活的沉思和祈祷的庇护所。

By using the on site firewood in the garden and granting it a new use, an unusual space emerges just a few steps outside the house providing a shelter for contemplation and prayer away from daily life.
