建筑师提供的文字说明。桑坦尼在广阔的丘陵地形上蔓延，被建成一个建筑避难所，远离现代的消费主义生活方式。强烈的灵感来自于独特的环境，设计表达了对景观的统一细节，而不是支配其自然的角色。这种关系是这样的，即构建的表单连接景观，景观将所构建的表单连接为流动的空间体验。简单的结构消失在景观中，掌握周围的精神宁静。

Text description provided by the architects. Spreading over a vast hilly terrain, Santani, was built as an architectural refuge, away from the consumerist lifestyle of the modern day. Strongly inspired by the unique context, the design expresses to be a harmonizing detail to the landscape instead of dominating over its natural persona. The relationship is as such that the built forms connect the landscape and the landscape connects the built forms as a flowing spatial experience. The simple structures disappear into the landscape, mastering the spiritual tranquility of its surrounding.

建筑结构从地面升起，以防止湿气和地面暖空气进入地面，并从上面吹来凉爽的微风。开放的形式允许交叉通风，消除内部的热量和湿度，在热带气候。水疗中心的草地露台是生态屋顶，有助于保持室内凉爽。

The built structures are raised from ground to prevent moisture and ground warmed air from reaching in and to catch cool breezes from above. Open forms allow cross ventilation, removing interior heat and humidity, in the tropical climate. The grass-turfed terraces of the spa are ecological roofs that help keep a cool interior within.

位于山谷中央的入口处营造了一片风景，吸引了两边的风景。这个简单的，开放的结构与一个轻型屋顶，融合到它的周围。

The entrance pavilion, lying at the center of the valley, creates a vista across it, capturing scenic views on both sides. This simple, open structure with a lightweight roof, blends into its surrounding.

这两层楼高的酒廊和餐厅，矗立在这片土地的最高点，远远地拥抱着风景如画的山脉。细线钢和打捞木材的线性轻量级结构，结合玻璃，建立一个透明的周围。

The two-storied lounge and restaurant, standing on the highest point of the land, embraces the picturesque mountain range afar. The thin lines of steel and salvaged timber of the linear lightweight structure, in combination with glass, builds a transparency towards its surrounding.

轻巧的小木屋坐落在他们的钢柱上，是对比性的和免费的特色，与倾斜的景观，以一种实现隐私的方式，同时聚焦于远处的景色。

The lightweight chalets resting on their steel pillars, are both contrasting and complimentary features, to the sloping landscape, oriented in a way to achieve privacy while focusing to views afar.

一条表达良好的通道通向温泉接待亭，这是一座轻巧的木结构，位于柱子上，略高于地面，灵感来自于柱上的坎迪扬土木建筑。

A well expressed pathway leads to the spa’s reception pavilion, a lightweight timber structure resting on pillars, slightly above ground, inspired by Kandyan vernacular structures on pillars.

水疗中心与梯级水田相似，是一系列绿色梯田，带有坡地景观的韵律，在梯田脚下有一大片重新耕种的稻田。梯田与水田、茶园一目了然，与远山形成了强烈的视觉联系。通过水疗中心的接待亭，可以看到绿色植物的景观，一条隧道通向直接较低的层次，即水疗室、蒸汽室和桑拿浴室的位置，在那里，人们庆祝着一种有着遥远景色的洞穴的感觉。隧道继续延伸到第二层较低的水平，那里有三个按摩治疗室，面向稻田。虽然水疗中心的入口很轻，但隧道和较低层是由瓦砾建造的。水平游戏，通过连接隧道和走廊有节奏的运动，以及物质表达唤起了一种平静的被囚禁的感觉。

Resembling a stepped paddy field, the spa is a series of green terraces flowing with the rhythm of the sloping landscape.  At the foot of these terraces lies a large re-cultivated paddy field. The terraces are in harmony with the paddy field and tea estates visible from one side, while being oriented to create a strong visual connection with faraway mountains. Through the Spa’s reception pavilion which frames views of greenery, a tunnel leads to the immediate lower level, the location of a water-therapy room, steam-room and sauna, where a sensation of a cave with a distant view is celebrated. The tunnel further continues down to a second lower level where three massage-treatment rooms are located facing the paddy field. While the entrance to the spa is lightweight, the tunnel and lower levels are built from rubble. Level play, rhythmic movement through connecting tunnels and corridors, and the material expressions evoke a feeling of peaceful captivity.

框架景观，轻风和冷风的发挥，乡村自然材料创造了一个多感官体验，在一个设计，体现其自然景观，净化心灵与沉默。

Framed views, play of light and cool winds, rustic natural materials create a multi-sensory experience, in a design that embodies its natural landscape, purifying the mind with silence.
