架构师提供的文本描述。卡萨大学位于墨西哥城的郊区，位于一个非常陡峭的丘陵地带，俯瞰着墨西哥的山谷。突出的斜坡产生了一个坐姿，强调了房子的空间与网站的地形之间的亲密关系。

Text description provided by the architects. Casa U is located in the suburbs of Mexico City in a very steep and hilly site overlooking the Valley of Mexico. The pronounced slope generated a sitting that emphasizes the intimate relationship between the spaces of the house with the site´s topography.

这部分人质疑了一所房子的典型顺序，让它进入屋顶，然后进入房子的私人和社会空间。大量的树木被用来追踪，构架房子，给它更多的隐私。

The parti questioned the typical sequence of a house, having its access in its roof to then descend into the private and social spaces of the house. A large number of trees served for tracing, framing the house and giving it more privacy.

外墙清清楚楚，把房子藏在屋外，突出了坡度与地平线的关系。在一个入口之后，一座桥从街道延伸到一个观测站。从斜坡上走下来，房子的立足点就会变小，而大部分的绿色表面就会被解放出来。

The exterior facade is sober and simple, hiding the house beyond and making evident the relationship between slope and horizon. After an entry portal, a bridge extends the transition from the street and becomes an observatory. By stepping away from the slope, the house reduces its footing and frees up the most of green surface.

楼梯成为项目的核心，充当材料轴和光的阈值。它分布到各个层次和空间，利用落地的框架景观，将景观以不同的规模带入室内。在某些部分，这些步骤在战略上更长，以减缓人的速度，并允许更多有意识的行为在等级之间过渡。

The stair becomes the core of the project, acting as the material axis and a threshold of light. It distributes to all levels and spaces making use of landings with framed views, bringing the landscape into the interior at different scales. The steps are strategically longer in some sections to slow down the person and allow for amore conscious act of transitioning between levels. 

顶层是车库和门厅，下一层是两间卧室、两间浴室、一间带私人浴室的主卧室、一间露台和一间工作室，其次是起居室、餐厅和厨房地板，最后是半埋的楼层，有一个游戏室和通往下花园的通道。

The top level holds the garage and access vestibule, being the next level down occupied by two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a master bedroom with private bathroom, a terrace and a studio, followed by the living room, dining and kitchen floor, and lastly a semi-buried level with a playroom and access to the lower garden.

物质性对空间的功能作出反应。包含卧室的最高容量达到了天空的清晰度。在社会层面，有机会进入花园的人用一种更重的性质来表达，用黑色的石头有节奏地划分为小山脊，提供一个连续的灯光和阴影，模仿火山当地的石头。这两种方法使体积看起来嵌入土壤中。最后，对于包含服务空间的所有卷，都使用中间插入的具体内容。

The materiality responds to the function of the spaces. The highest volumes containing the bedrooms reach the clarity of the sky. The social level, the one with access to the gardens is expressed with a heavier nature using black stone rhythmically divided by small ridges that provide a continuous play of light and shadow mimicking the volcanic local stone. This two make the volume look embedded into the soil. Finally, an in between concrete is used for all of the volumes that contain service spaces.
