架构师提供的文本描述。这栋房子位于波尔图市的Rua do Lindo Vale。这是一个排屋，3层高，建在一块5米宽，40米长的地块上。这座建筑有四个基本特征。首先，建筑师也是这个项目的客户。建筑师住宅的设计无疑是建筑设计中的一个独特的挑战，因为“建筑师”和“客户”之间的巧合，以及建筑师自身居住体验的空间实现的可能性。

Text description provided by the architects. The House is located in the Rua do Lindo Vale, in the city of Porto. It is a row-house, 3 stories high, built on a plot of 5 m width and 40 m length. This building has four fundamental characteristics. The first is that the architects are also the clients of this project. The design of the Architect’s House is, undoubtedly, a unique challenge within the design of the House, as an architectural programme, due to the coincidence between the ‘architect’ and the ‘client’, and due to the possibility of the spatial realization of the architect’s own residential experience.

第二个特点是这座房子的良好的都市感。这不是在城市周边建造的房子，而是建在城市中心区的一栋房子，这是一个城市生活紧张的地区，在一个狭长的地块中，这增加了许多空间的限制。根据现行图则的规例，在该幅土地上竖立的建筑物，须保持毗邻建筑物的线形，高度应低于街道的阔度，而地块背面的透气性较高。这一卷的定义(根据计划的规定)导致了住宅的内部组织，这在某种程度上类似于波尔图典型房屋的内部结构-在房子的两个立面附近有两个亮着灯的房间，在房子的核心处有第三个没有照明的房间。楼梯就在这个核心。在每一层，第三房间对应于：图书馆(向办公室开放)和一楼的浴室；一楼的厨房(向餐厅和客厅开放)；二楼的露台。

The second characteristic is the sound sense of urbanity of this House. This is not a house built in the periphery of the city, in a plot of medium- or large-size, but a House erected in the central area of the city, an area with an intense urban life, in a long and narrow plot that raises a number of spatial constraints. Based on the regulations of the plan in force, for a building to be erected on this plot it should maintain the alignment of adjacent buildings, a maximum height inferior to the width of the street, and a high permeability in the back of the plot. The definition of this volume (by the regulations of the plan) led to an interior organization of the dwelling that is, somehow, similar to the inner structure of the typical houses of Porto – two lit rooms near the two façades of the house and a third non lit room in the core of the house. The staircase is located in this core. In each floor, the third room corresponds to: the library (which is opened to the office) and the bathroom in the ground floor; the kitchen (which is opened to the dining and living rooms) on the first floor; and a patio in the second floor.

第三个特点是设计和材料的简单性。这座房子在现有建筑中的整合，在第一时刻，是基于一个仔细的立体式设计，其次，是基于前、后立面设计的简单性-结构、门窗和大门-用一种单一的颜色来加固。在房子内部，这种简单性还在继续：在所有楼层都非常相似的内部组织布局；在建筑中寻找“真”；以及三层之间的空间连续性，这一点通过楼梯和垂直运动的设计得到了加强。在包括厨房和浴室在内的所有房间中使用有限范围的材料也突出了这种简单性：墙壁和天花板涂成白色，人行道采用米色乙烯基地板，木门涂成白色。

The third characteristic is the simplicity of design and materials. The integration of this House within the existing buildings is based, in a first moment, on a careful volumetric articulation and, second, on the simplicity of design of the front and rear façades – the structure, the door and windows, and the gate – reinforced by the use of one single color. Inside the house this simplicity continues: in an interior organization layout that is very similar in all floors; in the search for ‘true’ in construction; and in a spatial continuity between the three floors, which is enhanced by the design of the stair and of the vertical movement. This simplicity is also underlined by the use of a restricted range of materials in all rooms, including both the kitchen and the bathrooms: walls and ceilings are painted white, pavements are of beige vinyl floor, and wooden doors are painted white.

最后，众议院非常灵活。在日常生活中，一套非常简单的元素的反复使用带来了一种很大的多样性：(1)每扇窗户，无论是正面还是后窗，都有两套百叶窗-一套位于0至0.90米高之间，另一组位于0.90米至2.65米高之间；(Ii)所有房间，除浴室外，均设有可由内墙完全收集的滑动门，从而使不同房间之间的运动畅顺。

Finally, the House is very flexible. The repeated use of a set of very simple elements introduced a great versatility in the day-to-day living of the House: i) each window, on the front and rear façades, has two sets of shutters – one set positioned between 0 and 0.90m high, and another set positioned between 0.90 m and 2.65 m high; ii) all rooms, except the bathrooms, have sliding doors that can be fully collected by the interior walls allowing, as such, a smoothness movement between different rooms.

Rua do Lindo Vale的房子显然是属于“那个”特定地方的城市房屋。它是建筑师居住体验的空间表达，建筑设计和材料的高度简洁，通过严谨的建筑感和高度的空间通用性达到高质量。

The House in the Rua do Lindo Vale is clearly an urban house belonging to ‘that’ particular place. It is the spatial expression of the residential experience of their architects; erected on a great simplicity of design and materials, achieving its high quality through a rigorous sense of construction and a high spatial versatility.
