鉴于茂密的森林覆盖，几乎不可能设置地理标志，伟大的观点或指导方针，让我们清楚地定位项目。因此，我们制定了一种根据密林中存在的光隙来确定光斑的策略。为了使程序适应这些自由空间，我们把房子分成三卷：通道、公共区域和卧室，这些空间将根据其最佳的方向分布在这些空隙中。

Given the thick density of the surrouding forest, it´s almost impossible to  set geographic landmarks, great views or guidelines that allow us to clearly locate the project. Therefore we established a strategy to define the spot based on the light gaps existing in the dense woods. To adapt the program to these free spaces, we distributed the house in three volumes: access, common areas and bedrooms, which will be distributed throughout these gaps according to its optimal orientation.

根据这一原则，进入房屋的通道位于现有通路的枢纽。公共区域的体积包括客厅、厨房和有盖的室外空间，其主立面朝北向南，卧室的两层空间位于东西向的主立面。最后，在这两部主要卷的限制下，公共区域的传播和大观变成了外层空间。

Under this principle, the access to the house is located in the hub of an existing access path. The volume of common areas containing the living room, kitchen and a covered outdoor space is located with its main facades oriented north-south, and the two level volume of bedrooms is located with its main facades in East-West direction. Finally circulations and great views of the common areas turn into the outer space limited by these two main volumes.

利用地形的自然坡度和程序的布局，我们在卧室的体积和公共空间之一之间建立了一个半高的缺口，产生了与背景不同的视野。

Taking advantage of the natural slope of the terrain and the layout of the program, we created a half-height gap between the volume of bedrooms and the one of the common spaces, generating different horizons of views with the context.

除了寻求对环境的最大尊重之外，项目的分布还定义了一种通过室内小路发现茂密森林的方法。

Besides the fact of seeking a maximum respect for the environment, the distribution of the program defines a way to discover the dense forest through the interior pathways within the house.

这些材料是根据该地区现有的人工劳动力指定的，该地区的木材建筑技术非常熟练。我们提出了一种松木的结构，外部涂有1x2“松木的垂直条纹，无需任何处理。

The materials are designated according to the available manual labor found in the region which is highly skilled in wood construction. We proposed a structure of pine wood, coated externally with a pattern of vertical strips of 1x2” pine  wood without any treatment.
