架构师提供的文本描述。Ribamontán al Mar Surf中心位于Santander附近的一个小镇Somo的海边。这一新设施必须尽可能靠近海滩(冲浪者不得不将冲浪板移到城镇的某些城市地区，这是不可想象的)；因此，在没有具有所需特征的市政地产小区的情况下，我们选择将该建筑物安置在海滨。该场馆缺乏环境价值；项目的目标之一实际上是恢复这个未被充分利用的空间，它位于离海岸线仅20米远的地方。

Text description provided by the architects. The Ribamontán al Mar Surf Center is located in the seafront of Somo, a small town in near Santander. It's essential for this new facility to be located as close as possible to the beach (it would be unthinkable that surfers have to move to change, shower or store the surfboards to some urban area of the town); therefore, in the absence of municipal property plot with the required characteristics, we chose to place the building on the seafront. The venue lacks environmental value; one of the goals of the project is in fact to recover this underused space, situated just 20 meters away from the sealine.

冲浪中心利用所选择的空间ir的良好定位、防风和混合功能(城市/海滩)来满足客户提出的要求：旅游信息区、有相邻服务的教室(如办公室、厕所或仓库)，那里将开设培训课程或展览，一个专门为冲浪者设计的有冲浪板仓库的变化区域，和一个办公室，负责管理和控制体育区的活动。

The Surf Center takes advantage of the good orientation, the wind protection and the mixed features (urban/beach) of the chosen space ir order to satisfy the requeriments raised by the customer: tourist information area, a classroom with adjacent services (such as offices, toilets, or storage) where training courses or exhibitions will develop, a changing area specifically designed for surfers with a surf board warehouse, and an office in charge of the management and control of the activity of the sports area.

该建筑分为两个截然不同的区域：一是大堂、旅游信息和培训，二是仅供体育使用的区域。这两个区域都是通过一个新的街道庭院连接起来的，这个庭院把公园和海滩连接起来。这是公共空间，是建筑的核心。冲浪中心的赞助者和其他冲浪者和游泳者可以自由使用安装在这条街道庭院里的公共淋浴。

The building is divided into two distinct areas: first the lobby, tourist information and training, and second the area for sports use only. Both areas are connected through a new street-courtyard which links the park with the beach. This is public space and it constitutes the core the building. The surf center patrons and other surfers and swimmers can freely use the public showers installed in this street-courtyard.

其目的是使这一新空间成为建筑物公共部分的背景。因此，冲浪者和游泳者的活力以及在这条街上发生的活动创造了冲浪中心的活跃气氛。

The aim is that this new space acts as a backdrop to the public part of the building. Thus the dynamism of the surfers and swimmers transit and the activity that occurs on this street creates the lively atmosphere of the Surf Center.

由于地块中的南向下斜率(3米)，这座建筑在北岸的影响是可以忽略不计的，因为在这一点之上，只出现了向海滨开放的公共自助餐厅的体积。这个自助餐厅是保证中心生存的一种资助手段。

Thanks to south downward slope (3m) present in the plot, the impact of the building in the north-beach is negligible because above this point only appears the volume of the public cafeteria that opens to the seafront. This cafeteria is a funding device that guarantees the survival of the center.
