架构师提供的文本描述。作为一个项目，Fábio Coentr o House提出了一个独特的挑战，因为它的目的是有效地对整个建筑和每个空间单独执行一项非常个人化的方案作出反应。这座房子是仍在开发中的一个细分部门的一部分。这片土地的背面是一片森林覆盖的土地，这座房子融入了一个具有强烈乡村特色的城市空间，完全有机会成为一种不同的模式。不同的，个性化的，独特的，正如业主所希望的那样。

Text description provided by the architects. As a project, the Fábio Coentrão House presented a unique challenge since its intention was to respond effectively to a demanding programme of a very personal nature for the building as a whole and individually for each space. The house is part of a subdivision still under development. The back of the lot faces a forested plot of land, and the house, integrated within an urban space with a strongly rural character, had every chance to serve as a different model. Different, individualized, unique, just as the owners wanted it to be.

 Floor Plan

该项目最初起源于希望以最不寻常的方式获得土地，尽管符合所有法律规定的要求。分舱使底层有了很大的深度。这样，就有可能设计出一座房子，其中的空间是相互连接的，并开放到位于多边形状地段中心的内部庭院。因此，在封闭的空间内创造了开阔的空间，扩大了生活区域，扩大了空间。各部门充分利用了外部空间。而作为“容器内部”的外部空间具有“外部-内部”的双重“生活空间”。概念介入，混合空间被创建，能够支持一个目标是非常个性化的架构。上层建筑受到的约束要大得多，因为对地块的规定限制在一个严格绘制的矩形多边形上。该项目成功地推翻了这一限制。

The project initially sprang from the wish to obtain the lot in the least usual manner, albeit conforming to all legally stipulated requirements. The subdivision permitted the ground floor to have great depth. In this way, it was possible to design a house in which the spaces are interconnected and open onto interior courtyards at the centre of the polygon-shaped lot. Thus, open spaces were created within the enclosed space, expanding living areas, expanding spaces. The divisions make the most of the exterior space. And the exterior space as 'the container’s interior' possesses a dual 'outside-inside' living space'. Concepts intervene, hybrid spaces are created, capable of supporting an architecture that aims to be very personalized. The upper floor was much more constrained, limited by the regulations imposed on the lot to a rigidly drawn rectangular polygon. The project succeeded in subverting this constraint.

一个被庭院摧毁的房子的想法，它雕刻了体积，打开了新的立面，在空间中重新创造空间，为这个项目的发展奠定了基调。该方案提出了更多的要求，这一概念得到了发展。

The idea of a house gutted by courtyards that sculpt the volumes and open new facades recreating spaces within spaces set the tone for the development of the project. The programme demanded even more and the concept gained momentum.

对于街上的普通行人来说，房子总是通过其强大的存在来吸引人们对自己的注意：由镜面多边形垂直切割的黑色形状和覆盖着黑色金属多边形的围墙。对于那些进入这片土地的人来说，这座房子展示了它的玻璃框架、庭院和透明；黑色的正面与客厅开放的池子里的绿草和蓝色水形成鲜明对比。对于任何能够进入住宅的人来说，建筑之间的相互作用立即从穿过金属桥开始，在地下室地板上的露台上放着木泥和玻璃护卫。镜面玻璃门隐藏在正面。在侧面重新创建分支的金属型材使黑色涂层活跃起来。植被在地块的后面生长。对于那些进入房子的人来说，空间和不同感觉的相互作用开始了。

To ordinary passers-by on the street, the house invariably draws attention to itself through its strong presence: the black form vertically cut by mirrored polygons and the enclosing wall covered by black sheet metal polygons. For those who access the lot, the house reveals its glass frames, courtyards and transparencies; the black facade contrasts with the green grass and blue water of the pool onto which the living room opens.For anyone gaining access to the dwelling, the architectural interplay begins immediately by crossing the metal bridge with wooden slats and glass guards over the patio that illuminates the basement floor. The mirrored glass door lies hidden in the facade. The metal profiles thatrecreatetree branches on the side facade enliven the black coating. Vegetation proliferates at the back of the lot. For those entering the house, the interplay of spaces and different sensations begins.

一个黑色的楼梯，有浮动的台阶和玻璃护卫/墙突出与白色的墙壁和橱柜。空间简单，阅读清晰。厨房内有建筑事务所设计的定制家具，由与客厅分开的庭院延伸。起居室则为庭院而设，延伸至木石板，标志着向池和后花园绿色草地的过渡。在这一层，容器内的第二个庭院，以提供室内空间隐私的图形设计，将连接到卧室、浴室和办公室的空间聚集在一起。在私人浴室里，白色的优势散发着光芒。通往套房的走廊两旁是壁橱和一组镜子放大它，创造了又一种幻想狂喜。

A black staircase with floating steps and glass guard/wall stands out against the white walls and cabinets. The space is simple with a clear reading. The kitchen, containing custom furniture designed by the architectural firm, is extended by the courtyard that separates it from the living room. The living room, in turn, lives for the courtyard and extends to the wooden slats that mark the transition to the pooland the green grass of the back garden.On this floor, a second courtyard within the container, designed with graphics that provide privacy for the interior spaces, brings together the spaces that connect to the bedrooms, baths and office.Upstairs, the predominance of white in the private bath exudes light. The corridor leading to the suite is lined with closets and a set of mirrors that amplify it, creating yet another ecstasy of illusions.

卧室是多才多艺的，允许不同的消失点，通过一个大的玻璃平面向卧室的庭院开放。地下室内有一个电影院和游戏室，面向下面的庭院，与住宅入口视觉相通。

The bedroom is versatile, permitting different vanishing points, opening up onto the lot's front with polygonal beams and towards the bedrooms’ courtyard through a large glass plane. The basement contains a cinema and games room facing the courtyard below that communicates visually with the dwelling's entrance.

在室外地区，即庭院和花园，选择了简单的设计作为铺路材料、铺装材料、花岗岩板和鹅卵石，赋予了非常简约的阅读空间。

In the outdoor areas, namely the courtyards and gardens, design simplicity was chosen for the paving materials, decking, granite slabs and cobbles, conferring a very minimalist reading to the spaces.

这样，每一个空间都代表了自己，是个性化的。所有这些都很重要，但一个空间并不试图将自己叠加在另一个空间上。房子作为一个整体展开和繁荣。所有的空间都是不同的，所有的空间都是共存和相互作用的。他们都是必要的，但同时，每一个站在自己的，一个独特的设计。因此，住宅具有明显的强烈特征，其中空间的享受，空间之间的视觉游戏，以及纯粹的乐趣，房子的生活区。从外部看，房子是黑色的，被镜子切割，看起来是封闭的。而且这是真的！它的内部包含着一组相当多样化的小空间，每个小空间都有一个强烈的身份，所有这些都是生命的小容器。

In this way, each space speaks for itself, is individuated. All are important, but one space does not attempt to superimpose itself on another. The house unfurls and thrives as a whole. All the spaces are different, all the spaces coexist and interact with one another. They are all necessary, but at the same time each one stands on its own, with a unique design. The dwelling thus possesses a distinctly strong character, where the enjoyment of the space, the visual play between compartments and pure delight of the house's living areas dominate. For the exterior, the house is black, cut by mirrors, and seems closed. And it's true! It encloses within itself a rather diversified set of small spaces, each one with a strong identity, all of them small containers of life.
