架构师提供的文本描述。一座与标志性的D.Luís I桥对话的特许建筑-河流，面向房屋和波尔图的里贝拉，嵌在独特的景观中，带着杜罗河穿过地平线。在联合国教科文组织的旗帜下，以其迷人的历史特色在这片地区的顶部建造，是一个微妙的过程-这是一个非常强烈的限制的深刻反映。

Text description provided by the architects. A building on a privileged site in dialogue with the emblematic D.Luís I bridge, the river, facing the houses and Porto´s Ribeira, embedded within a unique landscape that leads us where the Douro crosses the horizon. Building on top of this area protected under the flag of Unesco with its charming historical character, was a delicate process – a deep reflection made of very strong restrictions.

现有的建筑受到废弃的冲击，到处都是附加设施，将不得不适应一种新的用途：用于当地旅游的公寓。在四层楼(13.80米乘7.20米)，有必要组织五间独立工作室，供灵活使用，一套顶层公寓，一个带有共用厨房、后台办公室和技术区域的招待会。

The existing building, buffeted by abandonment and full of add-ons, would have to adapt to a new type of use: apartments for local tourism. On four floors, measuring 13.80m by 7.20m, it was necessary to organise five independent studios for flexible use, a penthouse, a reception with a common kitchen, back office and technical areas.

考虑到建筑物薄弱之处、剩余的厚花岗岩墙和新的规划用途的限制，设计理念服务于三种主要结构：

Given the constraints of the building´s weakness, the remaining thick perimeter granite walls, and new programmatic use, the design concept serves three principal structures:

1-作为支撑现有结构和解决所有技术需要的纵向混凝土轴：浴室、厨房、垂直管道、照明和电梯。运用这种布局，工作室变成了开阔的空间和纵向的视野：庭院和波尔图，杜罗河，桥梁和海洋。

1- a longitudinal concrete axis serving as backbone to support the existing structure and to solve all the technical necessities: bathrooms, kitchens, vertical ducts, lighting and the elevator. Applying this layout, the studios became open spaces and the longitudinal view: the courtyard versus the Oporto, the Douro river, the bridges, and the ocean.

2-楼梯，在混凝土脊线上，连接所有楼层和不同的外部区域。

2 - a staircase, on the concrete spine alignment, connects all floors and different exterior areas.

一个新的卷，假设为“附加”，与典型的黑色板岩外面皮肤-两卧室公寓与一个大客厅面对最好的全景到欧波托。

3 - a new volume, assuming as an “add-on”, with the typical black slate outside skin- two bedroom apartment with a large living room facing the best panoramic views towards Oporto.

该建议是沿着纵向部分，从重建的边缘，新的结构和后院地区，从街道水平到顶部。这些关系增强了建筑的内在体验，使建筑工地受到空间和光线条件的挑战，成为设计主题，在雕塑楼梯、后混凝土小山和D.Luíi桥的张力下，将挖掘出的花岗岩内部不同程度的隐私表达出来。

The proposal is expressed along a longitudinal section, between the margins of reconstruction, the new structure and the backyard areas, from the street level to the top. These relations enhance the inner experience of the building, framing the construction site challenged by conditions concerning space and light, became the design themes, articulating different levels of privacy within the excavated granite, under tension with the sculptural stairs, the back concrete hill and the D.Luís I bridge.

从内部，建筑，揭示了结构和概念的叙事。混凝土板和墙，显示了脊柱的厚花岗岩墙，与现有的窗户作为框架的看法。而顶层公寓，因为它是一个阁楼，是白色的！

From the inside, the building, reveals the structural and conceptual narrative. The concrete slabs and walls, show the spine which holds the thick granite walls, with the existing windows as framed views. And the penthouse, as it is a penthouse, is white!
