那家人。-一对夫妇和一个7岁的男孩加上一只狗。老了，但退休了。他们把房子命名为“El Caserón”。他们住在租房里，他们决定把他们的积蓄当掉，买很多东西，其中包括一栋毫无品味的房子，在我看来。经家人允许，我决定不拆毁这所房子。我们尽量避免平庸，在最坏的情况下寻找最好的。

The family. – A couple and a seven year old boy plus a dog. Old but with a great retirement. They christened the house “El Caserón”. They lived renting and they decided to pawn their savings in buying a lot that included an insultingly tasteless house, in my opinion. I decided not to demolish the house, with the family’s permission. We tried to avoid mediocrity looking for the best in the worst.

他们想要什么房子？

How did they want their house?

我们设想了它在一层楼的布局。

We imagined its layout in a single floor.

内部和外部之间的过渡应该是平稳的，没有物质限制。

The transition between the interior and the exterior should be smooth, absent of material limits.

我们被吸引来加强人际关系，通过接触和视觉控制从任何地方在家里。

We were attracted to enhance interpersonal relationships through contact and visual control from anywhere in the house.

这个项目是改造和扩建一座现有的独户住宅，占地1000平方米，居住在一个由孤立的独户住宅组成的住宅区。

The project.- It is the remodeling and expansion of an existing single-family house, located in a lot of 1000 square meters, in a residential district of isolated, single-family homes.

现有的建筑物由两部分组成。一方面，主体在地段的前部，10x12米，有承重墙和阿拉伯瓦屋顶(保存)，另一方面，一个小的附加体积，3x6米，与一个扁平的房间(拆除)。

The existing building was comprised of two parts. On one hand, a main body in the front area of the lot, 10x12 meters, with load bearing walls and Arabic tile roof (preserved), and on the other hand, a small attached volume, 3x6 meters, with a flat room (demolished).

先前存在的卷被恢复，连接到一个新的水平结构来完成程序.不同房间之间的内部间隙是不同的，以获得新的视觉效果和强烈的内部/外部连接。

The pre-existing volume was restored, connected to a new horizontal structure that would complete the program. The interior clearances were varied between rooms to obtain new visuals and an intense interior/exterior connection.

布局/流通-保存的主卷包括白天的区域：水槽、客厅、餐厅、厨房、客人卧室、浴室、游戏室和洗衣房；新结构包括出入大厅、车库、健身房、有盖游泳池、儿童卧室和一对夫妇的一套小公寓。循环沿内部周长呈L形，但在主体积中，它被转换成一个多方向、灵活的空间，利用木材隔墙的流动性。滑动的外部木制品，大型和嵌入墙壁，覆盖整个立面，使住宅与庭院和其他景观空间之间的视觉和形式联系，消除了从内部-外部过渡的实质性。

Layout / circulation.- The preserved, main volume contains the daytime area: sink, living room, dining room, kitchen, guest bedroom, bathroom, game room and laundry; the new structure contains the access hall, garage, gym, covered pool, children’s bedroom and a small apartment for the couple. The circulation is L-shaped along the interior perimeter, but in the main volume, it is transformed into a multi-directional, flexible space that takes advantage of the mobility of the wood partition walls. The sliding exterior woodwork, large and embedded into the walls, cover the entire facade allowing a visual and formal connection between the dwelling and the courtyards and other landscaped spaces, eliminating the materiality from the interior-exterior transition.

形式上/空间上/比喻上的品质。-令人惊讶的是，发现了一个发人深省的概念：“具象质量”，它取决于构造形状的技术条件，同时，它也是地形在随后的尺度上形成的一种形式。

Formal / spatial / figurative quality.- It was a surprise to discover a revealing concept: “the figurative quality” that depended on the technological condition with which the shape was constructed, and it was, at the same time, a generator of form in the terrain at the subsequent scale.

同样地，形式和空间不是因果关系，而是相互作用的结果，建筑造型先于形式的表达，并与其建模同时生成，甚至在空间程序中也是如此。

In the same way that form and space were not cause and effect, but reciprocal consequences, the architectonic figuration preceded the expression of the form and was simultaneously generated with its modeling, and even in the spatial program.

几何。-由此产生的建筑与可识别的几何不相对应，而是适应了批次中可用的空间，遵循物质减法而不是加法的标准。

Geometry.- The resulting building does not correspond with a recognizable geometry, but instead adapts to the available space in the lot, following criteria of subtraction of matter instead of addition.

材料/颜色。-保存的体积是白色石灰灰泥与铲子，和新的混凝土建筑是白色的。在完成木工平面、顶部和排水沟的涂层中，使用了未经处理的船用铝。白色增强了交互空间/形式的结果。

Material / color.- The preserved volumes are clad in white lime mortar with trowel, and the new concrete buildings are white. In the coatings that complete the woodwork planes, coping and guttering, untreated marine aluminum was used. The white color reinforces the reciprocal space/form result.

能源系统-增加了能源效率机制，例如利用地热能为冬季和夏季的空调提供动力，与地板供暖系统相关联。

Energy system.- Energy efficiency mechanisms have been added, such as the use of geothermal energy to power the air conditioning in winter and summer, associated with the floor heating system.
