架构师提供的文本描述。这个项目的背景是前安第斯山脉的中央山谷景观，以其卓越的地标而闻名。面对向南和向东的安第斯山脉令人叹为观止的山脉，向西望着一个起伏茂密的杏仁树山谷，房子位于东临一个蓄水池的东边，水库已成为周围景观的组成部分。位于东-西轴线，它的正面打开朝北和南方向，从而创造一个发光的气氛，同时避免严酷的阳光。

Text description provided by the architects. This project is set against the backdrop of the pre-Andean landscape of the Central Valley, famous for its remarkable landmarks. Facing the breath-taking mountain range of the Andes towards the South and the East, and looking onto a rolling, luxuriant valley of almond trees to the West, the house is located eastward next to a water reservoir, which has become an integral part of the surrounding landscape. Positioned along an East-West axis, its facades open onto the North and South directions, allowing thereby to create a luminous atmosphere, whilst avoiding harsh sunlight.

 Floor Plan

该程序由两块实心块组成，每块都有一层二楼，由中央空隙连接，中间层由楼梯和入口坡道连接。这有助于赋予卧室更多的隐私相对于建筑的其他部分。

The program is composed of two solid blocks, each with a second floor, articulated by a central void and connected mid-floor by a stairway and access ramp. This helps confer further privacy to the bedroom with respect to the rest of the building.

房子的形式特征产生于两个条件：第一，需要保持中央谷房屋的自然温暖，这转化为沿着整个房子的一条通道。另一种情况是自己强加的，与房屋的结构有关，在那里，一条混凝土丝带围绕着房屋的外部结构展开。这条丝带作为阳台，屋檐和墙壁，并适应新的地形要求交错的中间层布局。

The formal character of the house arises from two conditions: first, the need to preserve the natural warmth of the Central Valley house, which translates into a pathway that runs along the entire length of the house. The other condition is self-imposed and is related to the structure of the premises, where a ribbon of concrete unwinds around the exterior structure of the house. This ribbon serves as balcony, eaves and wall, and adapts according to the new topography required by the staggered mid-floor layout.

材料对房屋在自然环境中的整合起着至关重要的作用。房屋大部分采用可见板混凝土，但地下室墙壁除外，墙上覆盖着在地基建造阶段挖出的石块。这些卵石状的石头被劈开，露出粗糙的一面.第三种重要的材料是浸渍松木，它被用作阳台的装饰，并沿两侧转换成屋檐。最后，房屋包括各种氧化金属元素，如大门和遮挡服务区的遮阳百叶窗。

Materials play a fundamental role for the integration of the house within its natural surroundings. Visible board-formed concrete is used in most of the house, except for the basement walls, which are covered with the stones that were excavated during the foundation building phase. These pebble-like stones were split to expose their rough side. The third important material is impregnated pinewood, which is used as decking for the balconies and goes up the sides to transform into eaves. Finally, the house includes various elements of oxidised metal, such as the main entrance door and the sun louvers that conceal the service areas.
