架构师提供的文本描述。“Cardeu”坐落在萨尔瓦多Coatepeque湖周围的群山中，是一个活动场所，目的是在这样一个风景秀丽的地方最大限度地增加开放空间的机会。我们以一个礼拜堂、一家餐厅、一家酒店和各种辅助空间来补充它。

Text description provided by the architects. Nestled in the mountains surrounding Lake Coatepeque in El Salvador, "Cardedeu" is a place for events that aims to maximize the chances of an open space in such a privileged place with spectacular views. We complement it with a chapel, a restaurant, a hotel and various support sp

该设计考虑到场地内的平原和斜坡，以及与湖泊的持续关系。我们形成了一种简单的架构，为多样化的体验提供了空间。

The design was developed respecting a combination of plains and slopes in the site, and the constant relationship to the lake. We arrived at a simple architecture that provides space for versatile experiences.

我们创建了一个非正式的网状模式，目的是缓慢地揭示项目，使用各种选择，并生成对湖泊的不同视角。在访问过程中，我们将用户的视线限制在湖面上，只表示环境的一小部分，从而设置了贯穿整个项目的意图。这将邀请用户同时探索整个项目和环境。

We created an informal reticular pattern with the intention of revealing the project slowly, to use options for use and to generate varied perspectives to the lake. In the access we limit the user's view to the lake, suggesting only a small portion of the environment and thus setting an intention that permeates the entire project. This invites the user to explore the entire project and the same time the environment.

在组成项目的卷之间的流通是特别分散的，目的是限制或增强沿途的用户视图。因此，我们在建筑和自然之间产生了一系列不同的关系，在某些情况下溶解了内部和外部的界限。

Circulation between the volumes composing the project is specifically fragmented with the purpose of limiting or enhancing user views along the route. So, we generated a series of different relationships between the built and the natural, dissolving in some cases the limit of the interior and exterior.

当地材料的使用(附近农场的木材和当地采石场的石头)使该项目与该地区的重要性挂钩。同时，引进混凝土和钢等外国材料，使我们能够创造出在地面上突出的结构，并产生漂浮在树木之间甚至在湖面上飞行的感觉。

The use of local materials (wood from a nearby farm and stones from the local quarry) tied the project to the materiality of the area. At the same time the introduction of foreign materials such as concrete and steel allow us to create structures that project over the ground and generate sensations of floating between trees or even flying over the lake.

礼拜堂被设计成一个景观场景，像一个简朴的空间，用单一的材料来突出湖水和群山。这就像一个挤压混凝土盒，两个盖子被移除，而不提供任何关闭地面。这就留下了永久的交叉通风。混凝土的处理是朴实无华的，唯一现存的家具，除了长凳，是一个简单的祭坛，似乎漂浮在一个倒影池上，这反过来又会给湖面带来无穷无尽的影响。

The chapel is intended as a landscape scene and is handled like an austere space with a single material, to highlight the lake and mountains. It is like a box of extruded concrete where two covers are removed without offering any closure to the ground. This leaves permanent cross ventilation. The handling of concrete is unpretentious and the only existing furniture, besides the pews, is a simple altar that appears to float on a reflecting pool, which in turn creates an endless effect with the lake.

在结构上，它是用混凝土框架提出的，除了一个点，金属支撑缩短最长的梁，这是不被察觉的，因为它是“交叉”。

Structurally it was raised with concrete frames, except for a point where a metal support shortens the longest stretch of beams, which is not perceived because it is "the cross".
