架构师提供的文本描述。我们总是担心居住在我们设计和希望看到建造的空间的人们的幸福。居住就是占据这些空间，并发挥舒适、工作或娱乐的重要功能。在现实中，它是与秩序和给予形式的功能。

Text description provided by the architects. We always worry about the well being of the people who will inhabit the spaces that we design and hope to see built. To inhabit is to occupy those spaces and to perform the vital functions of comfort, of work or pleasure. In reality, it is to do with ordering and giving form to functions.

我们是功能主义者，只是因为建筑必须是功能性的，所以它也迫使我们这样做。否则，我们将被判不适、荒谬和最终被嘲笑。马术中心位于Le a da Palmeira的Cabo do Mundo，居住着马，在那里工作，是热爱马的人。这一挑战，或简单地说，要求在结构中以及在隔墙、墙壁和天花板中使用木材。

We are functionalists, if only because Architecture has to be functional and so it forces us to be so too. If not, we’ll be condemned to discomfort, absurdity and eventually ridicule. The Equestrian Centre located at Cabo do Mundo, Leça da Palmeira, is inhabited by horses and working there, people who love horses. The challenge, or brief, required the use of timber in the structure and also in the partitions, walls and ceilings.

一种木材稳定的建筑，有两个封闭的场地，一个地窖和一个社会建筑，也是用木材建造的。就像在任何其他项目中一样，有必要听取客户的意见并听取他们的要求、要求和愿望。由于无法与马匹交谈，而马才是当地真正的居民，我不得不与认识马的人进行对话，并与马匹一起工作。

A timber stable building with two enclosed arenas, a cellar and a social building, also in timber. Just as in any other project, it is necessary to listen to the clients and hear their requests, requirements and aspirations. Being unable to talk to the horses, who will be the real inhabitants of the place, I was obliged to engage in dialogue with those who know and work with horses.

尽管我对这些温柔的人有过一些经验，也一直很喜欢，但我从来没有从专业的角度来看待这个问题。当我们从事我们的职业时，我们会深入了解最终的居民和使用者的生活，并深入了解他们。他们喜欢什么他们不喜欢什么。无论这些使用者或居民是谁，都应该这样做。

Despite having had some experience with and having always loved these gentle beings, I had never looked at this subject from a professional point of view. When we practice our profession we enter deeply into the lives of the eventual inhabitants and users and get to know them well and intimately. What they like, what they don’t like. This is always the way, as should be the case, irrespective of who these users or habitants are.

马术中心是一个人们与马一起生活、为马服务和远离马匹的地方。一切都需要功能和舒适。对室内空间的需求与保护不受更猛烈的气候影响有关，如暴风雨，因为户外并不总是可能的。两个覆盖着不同大小的马场，由于相当大的跨度，发展成为一个有趣的结构挑战，这导致了一些实验。

The Equestrian Centre is a place where one lives with, for and off the horses. Everything needs to be about function and comfort. The need for indoor spaces has to do with protection from the more aggressive aspects of the climate, such as storms, because it isn’t always possible to be outdoors. The two covered riding arenas, of different sizes, developed into an interesting structural challenge due to the considerably large spans, and this led to some experimentation.

结构定义空间和功能。结构既是底座又是终点。结构定义了建筑，因为每个元素都是结构和空间。马术活动超出了室内的范围。该网站是为了创建平台，在那里建立了外部骑马竞技场，围场，跳跃竞技场和骑行路径。离大西洋很近，只看了一眼。

Structure defines space and functions. Structure is both the base and the finish. Structure defines the building because every element is both structure and space. The equestrian activities extend beyond the indoor areas. The site was molded to create terraces where an external riding arena, paddocks, jumping arenas and riding paths were built. Very near to the Atlantic, only a glance away.
