架构师提供的文本描述。地形位于一个斜坡上，俯瞰直布罗陀海峡的山谷。气候为地中海，夏季炎热，冬天柔软，既潮湿，又深受塔里法强风的影响。安达卢斯的乡土建筑“普韦布罗斯白”*它的庭院和狭窄的街道反映了当地的建筑风格如何适应气候。最后，客户希望我们不仅向他提出一个简单的住宅，而是一个复杂的地区，可以发展几个室内外活动。

Text description provided by the architects. The terrain is located on a slope looking at the valley that dominates the Strait of the Gibraltar. The climate is Mediterranean with hot summers and soft winters, both humid, and very much influenced by the strong winds of Tarifa. The vernacular architecture of Andalusian “pueblos blancos”* with its patios and narrow streets reflects how the local building style adapts to the climate. Finally, the client expected us to propose to him not just a mere residential house but a complex area that would permit the development of several indoor and outdoor activities.

因此，我们建议将300平方米的“pueblo”浓缩成当代的“皮质醇”。决定设计的规则与其鼓舞人心的原型背后的规则相同。“皮质醇”或“pueblo”的第一个特征元素是分隔它的墙。在这个房子里，我们提出了一个开放和沉思的围护结构，它是由一个可渗透的，膨胀的钢网组成的巨大的横向计划创造出来的。后者允许在夏季和冬季控制太阳辐射，在围栏内创造一种小气候。下一步是爆炸计划，产生一系列的体积，就像不同功能的建筑物或亭子，形成一个普利布洛或“皮质醇”。

As a result we proposed to condensate a “pueblo” on 300 m2 and turn it into a contemporary “cortijo”. The rules that determine the design are the same as the ones behind its inspiring prototypes. The first characteristic element of a “cortijo” or “pueblo” would be the wall that delimitates it. In this house we proposed an open and contemplative enclosure instead, created by a huge horizontal plan composed by a permeable, expanded steel mesh pergola. The latter permits to control the solar radiation both in summer and winter creating a microclimate in the enclosure. Next step is to explode the plan programme resulting in a series of volumes, just like the buildings or pavilions with different functions, which form a pueblo or “cortijo”.

射孔与体积一样多，以便将这些孔插入其中。露台的占领并不是完全的，留下了未来殖民的可能性，毕竟，普韦布洛不是一天之内建成的。同样的网，用于佩高拉服装卷，创造了一个连续性之间的假外壳和这些卷。此外，我们创造了各种各样的空间，里面和外面都有特定的空间，这允许一个人在房子里穿过无限的道路，就像在一个普埃布洛。这些空间之间的体积允许交叉通风，导致气流在整个房子，以抵御夏天的热和湿度全年。

The pergola is perforated with as many holes as volumes, in order to insert these in them. The occupation of the patios is not total, leaving the possibility for a future colonization, after all, a pueblo is not built in a day. The same mesh used for the pergola dresses the volumes creating a continuity between the fake enclosure and these volumes. Furthermore, we created a variety of spaces constructed with specific emptiness, both inside and outside, which permits one to walk in the house through the infinity of paths, just like in a pueblo. These spaces between the volumes allow for cross ventilation causing airflow throughout the house in order to fight summer heat and humidity all year long.

最后，委托英菲尼斯基公司建造的建筑是基于模块化预制建筑、可持续材料和可再生能源，如用于供暖和热水的生物/质量和太阳能热板。

Finally, the construction entrusted to Infiniski, is based on modular prefabricated construction, sustainable materials and renewable energies like bio-/mass and solar thermal panels for both heating and hot water.
