架构师提供的文本描述。Metepec昼夜对比鲜明，夜间和冬季都非常寒冷，中午和夏季都非常明亮。这一地区虽然靠近托鲁卡市，但仍有墨西哥乡村的气息，附近有山庄。场地限制要求有倾斜的屋顶、来自该地区的材料以及与邻居相当远的距离。有了这个起点，房子就成了陆地上一个明显的独立物体，有可能成为一种真正的姿态，一座别墅式的房子。

Text description provided by the architects. Metepec has a contrasting weather along the day and year, very cold at night and in winter, and highly radiant at midday and in summer.  The area though close to the city of Toluca still has the flavor of Mexican countryside, emphasized by the presence of haciendas nearby.  Site restrictions demanded inclined roofs, materials from the area and considerable distances to the neighbors.  With this starting point the house became a clear free standing object in the land, with the potential to become a real gesture, a villa type house.

房子的音量向南侧的花园完全打开，北面的正面也基本上关闭了，因为这里的景色并不特别好。为了接收到东西的阳光口音，房间两边的音量都被打破，变成了盒子，无论是地面还是悬挂。为了使它们更有表现力，它们用木料粘在一起。为了在靠近北面的空间里获得更多的光，天窗被创造出来，其结果就是不断变化的室内，充满活力，温暖和阳光明媚。室内空间也变得动荡不安和好玩，虽然地面上几乎没有墙，但有不同的区域。

The house volume was opened completely to the garden at the south side.  The facade to the north remained largely closed, as well because this view is not particularly favorable.  To receive east and west sun accents, the volume was broken on both sides and formalized as boxes, either at ground or hanging. To make them more expressive they are cladded in wood. To receive more light in spaces close to the north side skylights were created.  The result is an ever changing interior, vibrant, warm and sunny.  The interior space as well became fluid and playful, with differentiated areas though with barely any wall on ground level.

与其重复多个倾斜屋顶的邻里公式，一个大的单斜屋顶以一种姿势拥抱破碎的体积，而且在房屋的短边也是如此。当屋顶向下倾斜并压缩内部时，一层半的起居室位于起居室的下部，屋顶由内部的木梁构成，外面用钢框架。在寒冷的日子里，它高高地悬挂在一个大型木甲板露台上，带有一个室外烟囱，以享受花园的乐趣。外面的钢梁遵循着室内木梁结构的节奏。

 Instead of repeating the neighborhood formula of multiple inclined roofs, a large single inclined roof embraces the broken volume in a single gesture, as well at the short sides of the house.  As the roof inclines down and compresses the interior, a one and a half level living room occupies the lower part of it.  The roof is made out of wooden beams at its interior and framed by steel in the outside. It overhangs at high level above a large wooden deck terrace with an outdoor chimney to enjoy the garden as well in cold days.  The steel beams in the outside follow the rhythm of the interior wooden beam construction.

灰泥、木材和钢铁是房屋的主要材料，周围是一座绿色的砾石花园，有一条石路、固定的果树和果树、常春藤和该地区的植物，尚待生长。

Stucco, wood and steel are the main materials of the house, surrounded by a green and gravel garden with a stone pathway, stationary and fruit trees, ivy and plants of the region, still to grow.
