Description

The Plot The plot with a great lawn with imposing trees to the south, and a forest of pine trees to the north, offered a wonderful setting for an architecture relating the inside to the outside. In a clear of the forest, in the highest part of the plot, stood an old house that was going to be demolished.

这个地块有一片大草坪，南面有一棵树，北边是一片松树林，为一座内外相连的建筑提供了一个极好的环境。地势最高的一片森林里，矗立着一座即将被拆毁的老房子。

The Solution In our proposal, instead of a single compact volume that would dominate the landscape, we chose to dissolve the house into individual pieces, placing them in the clearing on the highest part of the plot. We wanted an architecture in which outer form and geometry did not immediately reveal themselves. One which, thanks to it facades, would act as a hinge between the density of the pine tree forest to the north, and the openness of the main lawn to the south.

解决方案在我们的建议，而不是单一的紧凑的体积，将主导的景观，我们选择把房子分解成个别的碎片，把他们放在空地上的最高部分的地块。我们想要一种外部形态和几何学不会立即显现出来的建筑。由于它的正面，它将在北方松林的密度和南方主草坪的开阔度之间起到枢纽的作用。

The Exterior Towards the north, the Moraleja Residence is structured through a series of volumes with turned back façades and slanted roofs that penetrate in the forest clearings. The overhanging volume of the family room on the first floor acts as an entrance canopy, inviting guests to enter the house. To the south, double height stone porticos project forward into the garden. The interior facades, recessed from the stone porticos, combine glass surfaces with bands of zinc. All the living spaces of the house incorporate floor to ceiling windows allowing for extensive views to the garden.

在朝北的外部，Moraleja住宅的结构是由一系列的空间组成的，其中有倒转的立面和倾斜的屋顶，穿透了森林中的空地。一楼家庭房间的悬垂体积作为入口遮阳篷，邀请客人进屋。在南面，双高的石门挺进花园。内部正面，凹槽从石门，结合玻璃表面与带锌。房子的所有起居空间都有从地板到天花板的窗户，可以看到花园的广阔景色。
