架构师提供的文本描述。该房屋位于1560平方米，在纵向(南北)和横向(东-西)两个方向的陡峭斜坡的复杂地形。

Text description provided by the architects. The house is located on a lot of 1560 square meters, with a complex topography of steep slopes both in the longitudinal (north-south) and transversal (east-west) directions.

该项目的战略是根据两项初步决定制定的：

The strategy for the project is developed from two initial decisions:

-在斜坡最陡的最高地区(最不实用的，先验的)定位住宅，以便在该地段的其余部分形成水平区域(可居住、可用)。通过这种方式，可以从房屋中测量整个地段，从而加强与景观的关系，并利用最佳的自然通风，这一点非常重要，特别是在夏季气候恶劣的情况下。

- Locating the dwelling in the highest area (the least usable, a priori), where the slope is the steepest, to generate horizontal areas (habitable, usable) in the rest of the lot. In this way, the entire lot can be surveyed from the house, the relationship with the landscape is thus intensified, and the best natural ventilation is taken advantage of, which is important given the harsh climate especially in the summer.

-划定一条有合理斜坡的街道，该斜坡穿过地段的部分，由入口通往车库，并在住宅下横过，为景观提供舒适的通道和充足的阴影。

- Delineating a street with reasonable slopes that traverses part of the lot, from its entrance to the garage, and crosses under the dwelling, producing a comfortable access and an ample shadow for the landscape.

建筑，一个简单的体积，适合于山，产生直接关系的每一层和外部。考虑了两种方法。更远的尺度，在景观中，是以一楼的体积和一个更抽象的图像生成的梯田，向南开放，以提供保护免受太阳。越近的规模，越远的山，是在那里，我们认为顶层是一个自由的周边建筑，这一效果强调了美化较低的楼层，产生了一个连续性的直接，被操纵的环境。

The building, a simple volume, fits into the mountain producing a direct relationship between each floor and the exterior. Two scales of approach are taken into consideration. The farther scale, in the landscape, is addressed with the volume on the ground floor and a more abstract image generated by the terrace which open towards the south providing protection from the sun. The nearer scale, further down the mountain, is where we perceive the top floor as a free perimeter building, an effect emphasized by landscaping the lower floor, producing a continuity with the immediate, manipulated environment.

院落布置在不同的层次上，并通过对角线视觉线相互连接。在就建筑技术作出适当决定的同时，它们合作，对这种气候作出了积极的反应。他们寻求优化与外部的关系，尽管程序所要求的平面尺寸。“膈肌”空间在这个项目中很重要。

The courtyards are laid out on different levels and interconnected through a diagonal visual line. In conjunction with adequate decisions regarding construction techniques, they collaborate in generating a positive reaction to this climate. They seek to optimize the relationship with the exterior, in spite of the planar dimensions required by the program. “Diaphragmatic” spaces are important in the project.

这个位置和集合反应了地块的条件(表面、地形、方向、入口、视野)，满足了未来使用者的愿望，也满足了我们把房子以一种令人愉快的方式插入到特定景观中的心事。

This location and massing respond to the conditions of the lot (surface, topography, orientation, access, views), to the desires of its future users, and to our preoccupation with inserting the house in an agreeable manner into a particular landscape.
