架构师提供的文本描述。该项目涉及建造一条通道，穿过两座建筑物，通往楼梯内一个8米以下的广场，由一部电梯将其夷为平地。

Text description provided by the architects. The project concerns the construction of a passage through two buildings leading to a square which lies eight meter below, leveled by one elevator, inside the staircase.

该通道的工作就像一个展览空间，用于绘画、雕塑和视频艺术。直接经营“太阳能画廊”，这是一家专门从事电影艺术、视频和近路电影的画廊。还有一家城市书店。最初的建筑建于十六世纪，十八世纪发生了深刻的变化。翻修工作是在大楼被彻底毁了之后进行的。

The passage works like an exhibition space, for paintings, sculptures and video arts. Conducts directly to the “Galleria Solar”, gallery which is specialized in cinematic art video and shortcut films. There is also a city bookshop. The original building was constructed in the sixteenth century, being deeply transformed in the eighteenth century. The refurbishment is done after the building was totally ruined.

作为通道的公共空间，开放时间从上午8：00到晚上12：00，艺术是由玻璃板保护，提供自然的暖气和通风。在这段经文的中间，我们留下了一些遗骸，16世纪原始建筑的见证：一块石头门廊和一些具有这一时期特色的台阶。

Being the passage a public space, which is opened from 8:00 am until 12:00pm, the art is protected by glass panels which are provided with natural heating and ventilation. In the middle of the passage, we left some remains, testimony of the sixteenth century original building: a stone portico and some steps characteristic of this period.

在一楼和阁楼，空间被转换成一个学生住宅，有18间卧室，厨房和起居空间。在这里，项目的策略是不同的。在一楼，所有的石头都是裸露的，没有灰泥，地板是用石头或水泥做的，在学生住宅里，空间经过了舒适的处理：地板是用木头铺的，墙壁是用抹灰和粉刷的。

On the first floor and in the attic, the space is converted into one student residence with eighteen bedrooms, kitchens and living spaces. Here, the strategy of the project is different. While on the ground floor, all the stone remain nude, without plaster and the floors are made of stone or cement, in the student residence, the space has been treated in terms of comfort: the floor was paved with wood and the walls were plastered and painted.

住宅的公共区域通过预先存在的窗口与画廊进行通信，这些窗口提供画廊、艺术品和住宅公共区域之间的透明和交互。这座建筑还通过专门设置的窗户与城市进行交流，专门为16世纪纪念碑的特殊景观提供框架。

The common areas of the residence communicate with the gallery through pre-existing windows that provide transparencies and interaction between the gallery, the artworks and the common areas of the residence. The building also communicates with the city through windows placed specifically to frame the special views of the monuments of the sixteenth century.

彩色玻璃的存在有助于在历史上由石头建造的豪宅和用彩色混凝土建造的楼梯之间进行过渡。这两种材料都经过了未完成的处理，证明了人类的不完美。带有彩色玻璃的空间照亮了包含艺术展览空间的通道，在里面引入了一段电影画廊。

The presence of the colored glass helps to make the transition between the historic manor house built in stone and the staircase constructed in pigmented concrete. Both materials went through unfinished treatments, evidencing the imperfection of the mankind. The space with the color glass illuminates the passage which incorporates a space for art exhibitions, introducing a section of cinematic gallery inside.

通过这种方式，人们在穿过城市公共空间时会遇到艺术，直接面对和惊讶于画廊的定期展览。它把旧的和新的设计结合起来，把哥特式玻璃的氛围和氛围融入到当代建筑中。在建筑物入口处看到明亮的彩色面板的方式，吸引了人们来看明亮的颜色：隧道尽头的光线。

By this way, people meet art when walking through the city public spaces, being directly confronted and surprised by the regular exhibitions of the gallery. It combines the old with the new design, taking the atmosphere and ambience of gothic vitrals into contemporary architecture. The way that the luminous color panel is seen at the entrance of the building, attracts people to come and see the bright colors: the light at the end of the tunnel.

该画廊的设计考虑了建筑材料的再利用原则。在建筑物中占主导地位的花岗岩，以着色混凝土为补充的建筑材料，用于建造楼梯和电梯箱。这个项目暴露了花岗岩材料被认为是天然的和环境友好型的巨大的转化能力。花岗岩的巨大热惯性与其高密度有关，使得这种材料可以在夏季用作蓄热器，释放在冬季几个月中积累的能量，从而避免使用强制空调空间。我们对可持续发展的贡献很小。

The Gallery was designed taking into account the principles of reuse of construction materials. The granite, building material which predominates in the building complemented with pigmented concrete, used in the construction of stairs and lift box. This project exposed the enormous capacity for conversion of the granite material seen as natural and environmentally friendly. The huge thermal inertia of the granite associated with its high density, permits this material to be used as heat accumulator during the summer, releasing the energy accumulated during the winter months, thereby avoiding the use of forced air-conditioning spaces. Our little contribution to the desirable sustainability.
