这座房子位于我们在工地上发现的唯一平面上，它建在一座老房子的废墟上。这是有利的地点，因为它的平面条件，朝向太阳，和它的特权景观。我们还考虑到了前一位业主的经历，他曾经住在一栋土坯房的东西部。

The house is located on the only flat plane that we found on the site and built on the ruins of an old house. This was the favorable site due to its flat condition, orientation towards the sun, and its privileged view. We considered, as well, the experience of the previous owner who used to live in an adobe house oriented east-west on its long side.

 Floor Plan

这套房子的程序是在一个7，35x14，7米长的长方形中求解的，其中包括一个中央公共区域(客厅和餐厅以及厨房)，将两个卧室分开，一边是主卧室，另一边是两间较小的卧室。所有地区都由一条向东1，20米宽的外走廊连接；这条走廊在冬季提供了一个有盖的屋顶，在夏天提供了一个很好的遮阳处。这肯定是在夏天，走廊发挥了它最重要的作用。

The program of the house is solved in a rectangle of 7,35 x 14,7 m side, which contains a central public area (living and dining room along with the kitchen) that separates two sleeping areas, the master bedroom on one side and two smaller bedrooms on the other side. All of the areas are connected by an outer corridor with a width of 1,20 m towards the east; this corridor provides a covered roof in winter and a wonderful shade in summer. It is definitely in summer where the corridor plays its most important role.

在这个项目中，我们用了两种材料来建立房子的结构。首先，松木结构，由三块2x5“连接的木板组成，使我们能够设置我们建造房屋所需的长度。第二，用胶合板支撑柱子和梁作为结构元素，作为房屋的内部材料；换句话说，工程的结构和美学是由相同的元素建造的，因此没有额外的装饰材料，一切都在眼前。

For this project we used two materials to establish the structure of the house. First, the pine structure, composed of three joined planks of 2x5” that allowed us to set up the length we needed to structure the house. Second, plywood boards were used to brace the columns and beams as structural elements and remained as the interior material of the house; in other words, the structure and aesthetics of the project are built by the same elements, therefore there are no extra finishing materials, and everything is within sight.
