架构师提供的文本描述。在现有的一层房子300平方米的土地上建造一座新房子，只保留建筑的50%，拆除其余的房子，这是客户的要求，因为原来的房子状况很差，而且它在土地上的位置也很差。

Text description provided by the architects. Building a new house in a land where there was an existing one floor house of 300 square meters, keeping only 50% of the construction and demolishing the rest, was the client´s requirement because of the poor state of the original house and its location in the land.

客户的部分需求是获得一个新的形象房屋，创建一个与庭院相关的新通道，与外部区域相连的居住空间，以及一个独立的主房间，可以看到景观。

Part of the client's requirements was to get a new image house, creating a new access associated with a courtyard, living spaces connected with outside areas and an independent main room with views to the landscape.

根据这三个需求，我们建议使用两个主要操作。首先，几个一楼扩展应该将几个规划庭院定义为入口区、烧烤区、花园和游乐场。第二，几乎所有的新计划都应该在二楼释放土地，用一种新的建筑材料创造房子的新形象。

With these 3 requirements, we proposed to work with two main operations. First, a few first floor extensions should define several programmatic courtyards as an entrance area, barbecue area, garden and playground. Second, almost all the new program should be on the second floor to release the land, with a new building material which creates a new image of the house.

在第一次操作中，我们在一个连续的花园中定义了不同的规划区域。我们设计了一个新的起居室和露台区，定义了烧烤和游泳池区。此外，我们扩大了卧室面积，并定义了一个游乐场区和一个私人露台。

With the first operation, we defined different programmatic areas in a continuous garden. We projected a new living room and terrace area, defining a barbecue and a pool zone. Also, we extended the bedrooms area and we defined a playground area and a private terrace.

在第二次操作中，我们与3个石头元素一起工作，给房子一个新的外观，它与原来房子的平面几何学相吻合。这三个要素定义了一个双高度入口，第二个相互连接的客厅与室外露台，最后，主房间作为一个图标音量，主导花园和景观。

In the second operation, we worked with 3 stone elements to give a new look to the house which brook to the flat geometry of the original house. These 3 elements defined a double-height entrance, a second interconnected living room with an outdoor terrace and finally, the main room as an icon volume, dominating the garden and landscape.
