架构师提供的文本描述。Icod是12栋房子的混合体，介于一座公寓楼和带有花园的独立住宅之间，但这只是一个结果。原因是两个奇点。一个是它的地域地理位置，另一个是由当地私人倡议推动的。

Text description provided by the architects. Icod is a hybrid of 12 houses between a block of apartments and detached houses with garden.But this is only a consequence. What explain it are 2 singularities. One its territorial geolocation and another be promoted by a local private initiative.

特内里费是大西洋上的一个丘陵岛屿，人口约为每平方公里500人，但占用土地的比率很高，密度低，成熟后会过度饱和，并使其无法持续。这是一个邻居在离他的房子几米远的一处家庭地块上推广的，而且他对该岛的认识也很强。

Tenerife is a hilly island in the Atlantic with a population of about 500 inhabitants per km2, but with a very high rate of land occupation with low density being ripe to oversaturate and to overwhelm its sustainability. The promotion comes from a neighbor on a family plot few meters close to his house and awareness of the island situation.

建筑师和开发商之间谈判的机会来获得适当的策略。对我们来说，这个岛是一个由房屋组成的城市的自治和自我再生的细胞的领域；属地化的都市化；这是它的规模，…。我们称它为温文尔雅。

The opportunities come up of the negotiation among the architects and the developer to get the appropriate strategies. For us, the island is a field of autonomous and self-regenerating cells as a city made out of houses; territoriality turned urbanity; that is its scale,  ... we call it terrurbanity.

我们在这个框架中产生了一个节点，与材料和本地供应商合作，但是产生了一个密度更大、效率更高的单元，其中包含了一种新的模式。所有这些都导致了一个增强本地私人推广能力的过程。..种子被播种了。

And we generate a NODE in this frame working with materials and local suppliers, but generating a denser and more efficient cell with a new paradigm within it. All this led to a process of empowerment of the local private promotion. .... The seed is planted.

就效率而言，我们寻找的是尽可能高的密度；最大的住宅数量。地块的巨大深度(陡坡)预示着里面的庭院。这两种原因都导致我们实施了一项足以满足我们所有抱负的单一战略：过度开发这些庭院，强化它们的使用。

In terms of efficiency we look for the highest density possible; the maximum number of dwellings. The great depth of the plot (steeply sloping) presaged courtyards inside it. Both reasons led us to implement a single strategy which proved enough for all our ambitions: overexploit these courtyards, densify their use.

一座庭院住宅，其中一片是一株高植物，它允许穿过走廊下的庭院变成楼梯。这个方案和它的邻居一起，产生了一种强大的共生关系，能够自动调节和促进关系。这个模块反复6次产生建筑物，并达到高能量的使用效率，以获得控制。作为肺和心脏的遮荫和保护的公共空间。此外，这项计划以自然的方式领导社区生活到屋顶，提供这种独特的空间作为娱乐场所(花园)，并符合整个推广的资格。

A courtyard house that raises one piece of it a high plant allows passage through the courtyard under the corridor that became stairs. This scheme along with its neighbor, produces a symbiosis so strong that autoregulates and promotes relations. This module repeated 6 times generates the building and achieves high energy an use efficiency, in order to to obtain a controlled, shaded and protected public space that serves as lung and heart. Also this scheme leads the community life on top to the roofing in a natural way providing this space of idiosyncrasy as recreation area (the garden) and qualifying the whole promotion.

他们是有2和3个房间的小尺寸的住宅，但具有巨大的空间性。空间是奢华的，所有的房子都有相同的方向、视野、高度、通道、通风、照明等条件，.我们有意识地采取行动，因为代谢者的假设在这个项目中是隐含的。

They are homes with 2 and 3 rooms of small dimensions but with an enormous spatiality. Space is luxury.All houses have identical conditions of orientation, views, height, access, ventilation, lighting, ...Consciously we have acted since metabolist postulations that were implicit in the project.
