架构师提供的文本描述。Magritte位于东京中部，占地面积45.61平方米。前路的宽度限制了工程机械的尺寸。条件使建造这座住宅极为困难。客户是30多岁的已婚夫妇，他们的简单要求是在房子的每一部分使用混凝土，包括地板、墙壁、桌子等。他们甚至不关心存储空间来满足这个请求。

Text description provided by the architects. Magritte’s is situated in the middle of Tokyo, on a tiny 45.61 m2 of plot of land. The width of front road restricted the size of construction machinery. The conditions made it extremely difficult to build the residence. The client was a married couple in their thirties, and their simple request was the use of concrete for every part of the house including floor, wall, tables etc. They didn’t even care for storage space to satisfy this request.

泰库托认为，创造建筑是一场对抗地心引力的斗争。有两种逃离重力的方法：用能量像火箭一样推动重力，或者创造一个比空气轻的结构，比如氦气气球。泰库托工作室的灵感来源于马格里特关于超现实主义的研究，并提出了一个从重力中逃脱的大型混凝土砌块的主题。在结构上，特库托采用预应力钢筋预制混凝土，将底层与地下室之间的体积隔开。最后，AtelierTekuto通过重新发现曾经被认为是理所当然的共同事物，发现了一个新的建筑元素。

Atelier Tekuto believe creating architecture is a fight against gravity. There are two ways to escape from the gravity: Use energy to push against gravity like a rocket, or create a structure that contains a volume lighter than air such as a helium balloon. Atelier Tekuto was inspired by Magritte’s work on surrealism and proposed the motif of a massive concrete block escaping from the gravity. For the structure, Atelier Tekuto chose precast concrete with pre-stressed steel bar, to separate the volume between ground floor and basement. Finally Atelier Tekuto found a new element of architecture by rediscovering the common things that were once for granted.
