“聪明的生活”。休息的奢侈。

“Smart Living ”. The luxury of rest.

今天，我们在城市里过着快速的生活。生活质量是用奢侈而不是经验来衡量的。在此基础上，我们选择了一个切合实际和真诚的架构，以满足客户的需求，优先考虑内部，开放，自然照明的空间。更少的建筑面积影响到更好的成本，更少的资源利用和更多的与自然的互动。

Today we live in an expedited manner within the city. Quality of life is measured in luxury rather than experience. On this basis we opted for a practical and sincere architecture to respond to the client's needs, prioritizing internal, open, naturally lit spaces. Less built square footage that impact on a better cost, less use of resources and greater interaction with nature.

 Floor Plan

目标：创造一个家和一个绝对放松的体验，为环境和更好的生活质量做出贡献。其任务是为用户提供一个可供选择的空间，在那里，愉悦和放松可以共存。在一个层次上，他们可以在一起或与客人在一起生活和放松，同时做一些美好的事情，比如做饭、在水中休息、锻炼、采集水果、喝一杯或只是坐着欣赏风景。

The goal: to create a home and a relaxing experience of absolute relaxation that contributes to the environment and a better quality of life. The mission was to provide the user with an alternative space where pleasure and relaxation can coexist. Areas on one level where they could meet each other or with guests to live and relax while doing something nice, like cooking, resting in the water, exercising, collecting fruit, having a drink or just sitting and admiring the landscape.

自然之心

The natural heart

我们把主树的前卫放在了地产上，并把项目围绕在它周围。在一个层次上，我们为每个空间插入8个室内花园，使每个室内花园都与大自然有着不同的联系。在室内，我们从中央花园开始我们的设计：一个漂浮在倒影池上的“Tabachín”，作为房子的中心，一个所有空间之间的连接。客房分别通往室内花园、蕨类植物花园和马库利花园。主卧室位于最私人的区域，通往花店花园和主花园，并与客厅、露台、游泳池和餐厅相连。

We take avantage of the main tree on the property and turn the project around it. On a single level we insert eight indoor gardens for each space, giving each one a different contact with nature. Inside we start our design from the central garden: A "tabachín" that floats on a reflecting pool and serves as the heart of the house, a connection between all spaces. The guest rooms open onto the interior gardens respectively, the garden of ferns and Macuilli garden. The master bedroom in the most private area opens onto the bougainvillea garden and the main garden, which is also connected to the living room, terrace, pool and di

客厅与电视房之间的苏铁园、入口处的果园、浴室中的绿色庭院以及直接通往主花园的绿色隧道补充了项目的配置。虽然我们的建筑在房子里起着关键的作用，但正是通过插入空间来思考自然，我们才能获得真正的体验。

The Garden of cycads between living room and tv room, the orchard at the access, green courtyards in the bathrooms and the green tunnel for direct access to the main garden complement the configuration of the project. Although our architecture plays a key role within the house, it is through the insertion of spaces for contemplation of nature that we achieve a true experience.

高效的架构：我们用更少的时间来实现更多。

Efficient architecture: we achieve more with less.

我们把房子的设计建立在一个符合结构、组织和开放空间的网格上。因此，我们在房子内通过抵消墙来发挥灵活性。全地板到天花板的窗户高达3.60米，强调了整个工程的景观和自然照明的重要性。室内高度使空间保持新鲜，尽管库尔纳瓦卡有高温。

We base the design of the house on a grid that conforms the structure, organizes and opens the space. So we play with the flexibility within the house through offsetting walls. Full floor to ceiling windows 3.60 m high emphasize the views and the importance of natural lighting for the entire project. The interior height keeps the spaces fresh despite the high temperatures in Cuernavaca.

我们通过不同的系统注入自然光：屋顶照明在圆顶和庭院，通过窗户，最后间接自然光抵消板在不同的高度。地板和主墙用石灰华大理石、客厅和木制品用胡桃木、瓷砖和白墙、透明地板到天花板玻璃等材料，使人感觉到了一个清新、开放、温暖和大得多的空间。

We inject natural lighting through different systems: overhead lighting in domes and courtyards, through windows and finally indirect natural light offsetting slabs at different heights. Materials such as travertine marble for floors and main walls, walnut for the living room and woodwork, tiles and white walls, and transparent floor to ceiling glass resulted in the feeling of a fresh, open, warm and much larger space.

所有的人工LED照明，水的收集和处理系统，产生电力的光电池，以及热水的太阳能加热器，降低了房屋的能源消耗，创造了一个更了解我们周围环境的项目。总之，这个项目反映了我们办公室的理念，Goko更注重规划、客户需求和对环境的理解，而不是一个既定的美学公式。

All artificial led lighting, systems for water collection and treatment, photo-cells to produce electricity, and solar heaters for hot water reduced the energy consumption of the house and create a project more aware of our surroundings. In conclusion, this project is a reflection of the philosophy of our office, GoKo pays much more attention to planning, client needs and understanding of the environment, rather than a prescribed aesthetic formula.
