架构师提供的文本描述。帕尔马斯之家位于墨西哥的特克科科，靠近历史中心多边形，紧靠连接整个领土的主干道。现场的外部条件和挑战是声学和交通拥堵。就气温状况而言，该地区白天气候持续温暖，夜间气温较低。

Text description provided by the architects. Palmas House is located in Texcoco, Estado de Mexico, close to the Historic Centre polygon and next to the main avenue that connects the entire territory. The external conditions and challenges of the site are the acoustics and the congestion of traffic jams. In relation to the temperature conditions, the area has a constant warm climate during the daytime and low temperatures during night.

2017年初，该工作室被任命在非常低的预算和复杂的场地条件下设计一套房子。客户是一位年轻女性，她走近我们的工作室，要求为她的亲戚设计一套房子。全家人在那栋房子里住了40多年。目前，在拉丁美洲，这类建筑不遵守任何规划规定，因此现有建筑没有适当的空间、照明、通风和隐私条件。

In early 2017, the studio was appointed to design a house based on a very low budget and complicated site conditions.  The client was a young woman who approached our studio and requested to design a house for her relatives.  The entire family lived in that house for more than 40 years. Currently, in Latin America those kinds of buildings do not follow any planning regulation, therefore the existing construction did not have the right conditions of space, lighting, ventilation and privacy.

经济资源的限制使该项目成为一项非常复杂的工作。该小组从未损害经济条件和提高埃尔萨夫人及其家人生活质量的主要目标。主要战略是基于Dosa Studio和其他三家公司之间的合作，它们感兴趣并致力于该项目的目的：Novaceramo、Mezcla Brava和Probarro。这些公司与Dosa工作室建筑项目协调提供建筑材料。

The limitation on the economic resources made the project a very complex exercise. The team never compromised the economic conditions and the primary objective to improve the quality of life of Mrs Elsa and her family. The main strategy was based on the collaboration amongst Dosa Studio and three other companies, interested and committed to the purpose of the project: Novaceramic, Mezcla Brava and Probarro. These companies provided the construction materials in coordination with Dosa studio construction project.

第一步是对材料的认识，红砖由于其重要性和可持续性，满足了该工程建设所必需的特点。该项目的基础是砖块尺寸，以调整房屋，并使用我们的赞助商提供的确切数量。在场地分析的基础上，对材料的选择策略进行了补充，进行了自然光的探索，以强调和提供各地区的热舒适性。

The first step was the recognition of materials, and the red brick met the necessary characteristics for the construction of this project due its materiality and sustainable characteristics. The project was based on brick dimensions in order to modulate the house, and use the exact quantity provided by our sponsors. The strategy of the selection of the material was complemented by the exploration of natural light to emphasize and provide thermal comfort to each of the areas based on the site analysis.

帕尔马斯宫探索不同的层次，如光，城市背景，物质和空间模块。自然光的探索依赖于一个简单而诚实的解决方案。其重要性决定了德州城市中心的城市形象。内向的空间方法在视觉上接近外部，解决了大部分不规则的语境条件。

Palmas House explores different layers such as light, urban context, materiality and spatial modules. The exploration of the natural light relies on a simple and an honest solution. The materiality contributes to the urban image of the Texcoco urban centre. The introverted spatial approach closes visually to the outside and resolves most of the irregular conditions of the context.

主要建筑的位置解决方案是基于现有的指导方针，以包含建筑方案，并提供两个庭院，将其与其邻居分开。每个庭院都有自己的身份和功能。第一个是分配一个狭窄的石头花园，连接从街道的主要入口。此外，它将室内的视觉和声学与环境隔离开来。最后，它反映了和谐的关系之间的对比颜色，纹理，灯光和阴影，提供了大开口的房子信封。

The position of the main building the solution was based on the existing guidelines in order to contain the architectural program and provide two courtyards  that separate it from its neighbours. Each of the courtyards has their own identity and function. The first one allocates a narrow stone garden that connects the main entrance from the street. In addition, it isolates the interior visually and acoustically from the context. Finally, it reflects the harmonious relationship amongst the contrasting colours, textures, lights and shadows, provided by the big openings on the envelope of the house.

第二个庭院是服务区。然而，通过保持同样的物质性，感觉和情感被保留了下来。这个几何图形是从南面和北面的锯齿状屋顶上发现的。屋顶上的几何形状和开口不断且均匀地照亮了体积的内部。阴影投射在墙上，穿过它们，并在一天的过程中发生变化。

The second courtyard contains the services area. Nevertheless, by keeping the same materiality, the sensations and emotions were preserved. The geometry is discovered on the streetscape views by its jagged roof in the south and north elevation. The geometry and opening on the roof constantly and uniformly illuminates the interior of the volume. The shadows are projected on the walls, traversing them and transforming during the course of the day.

房子的空间配置集中在前一栋房子的原始足迹上。配置的主要原则是用户之间的共存，因此底层分配的公共区域是由客厅、餐厅和厨房组成的开放式配置。(鼓掌)

The spatial configuration of the house focuses on the original footprint of the previous house. The main principles of the configuration are the coexistence among users.  Therefore the ground floor allocates the public area, composed of a living room, dining room and kitchen in an open plan configuration.

上层包括私人空间，包括三间卧室，这些卧室通过走廊连接到内部。与外界的关系是建立在一个投影阳台系统，视觉连接房间和花园。底层的连通性是通过引入有助于家庭经济的商业场所而发展起来的。这些区域与房子的内部功能完全分开。

The upper floor contains the private area, which includes three bedrooms that are connected to the interior by a corridor. The relationship to the outside is based on a projective balcony system that visually connects the rooms to the garden. The ground floor´s connectivity is developed with the introduction of commercial premises that contribute to the family economy.  Those areas completely separated to the internal functioning of the house.

卡萨帕尔马斯为当地的社会和当代建筑提供了不同的意义。它展示了建筑可以通过空间体验来改善生活条件的方式，而这种体验绝不能依赖于庞大的预算。此外，它应该与功能，精神需求和新的生活方式联系在一起，即建筑是为每个人服务的。

Casa Palmas provides a different meaning to the social and contemporary architecture of the local area. It shows the way architecture can improve life conditions through spatial experiences that must not depend on large budgets. Also, it should be linked to functional, spiritual needs and new ways of living under the idea that architecture is for everyone.
