To design a house for someone is to build a portrait: the portrait of one or more human beings in their relationship with others and their surroundings. Casa Ortega was designed for a devout son. The commission was clear: a home with two pavilions, one for Raúl and his latent family, another one for his parents. Two houses in one: independent and interdependent. Two open links that string together in a horizontal 8, symbol of the infinite, of eternal return.

为某人设计一座房子就是建造一幅肖像：一个或多个人在与他人和周围环境的关系中的肖像。卡萨·奥尔特加是为一个虔诚的儿子设计的。这个委员会很清楚：一个有两个展馆，一个是劳尔和他潜在的家人，另一个是他的父母。两座房子合二为一：独立和相互依存。两个开放的链接，那串在一起的水平8，象征着无限，永恒的回报。

One way to unravel bonds without piercing them is to offer each lace a space for autonomy. The social spaces of the house (kitchen, dining room and main living room) are the place for sharing and bonding. The private spaces (bedrooms, independent living rooms and bathrooms) provide the place for intimacy. The house design resulted, therefore, from the assembly of two pieces of equal size but different scale: a C which would scoop a garden for Raúl and his family, and an inverted C which would scoop another garden for his parents.

一种在不刺穿的情况下解开束缚的方法是为每一种花边提供一个自治的空间。房子的社交空间(厨房、餐厅和主客厅)是共享和结合的场所。私人空间(卧室、独立客厅和浴室)提供了亲密的场所。因此，房屋设计的结果是装配了两个大小相同但规模不同的建筑：一个C将为劳尔和他的家人挖一个花园，另一个倒C将为他的父母挖另一个花园。

The first one would funnel the afternoon sun and would be oriented towards the cordillera that provides the skyline in the horizon; the second one would receive the morning sun and would fold towards the interior. The double nature of the house decanted in a larger footprint for the private area, located in the upper floor. The difference between ground and upper floor was mediated by two inclined planes which provided the perfect opportunity to lodge an escalated library for Raúl, and a cascading inner garden for his mother.

第一种是让下午的太阳漏斗，然后朝向地平线上提供天际线的红线；第二种是早晨的太阳，然后向内部折叠。房子的双重性倾斜在一个更大的脚印为私人区域，位于上层。地面和上层的差别是由两个斜面来弥补的，这两个斜面为劳尔提供了一个绝佳的机会，可以为劳尔提供一个升级的图书馆，为他的母亲提供一个级联式的内花园。

Which would be the adequate materials, the textures for this portrait? Raul manages, with his father, two factories: one specializes in the manufacture of wood components, the other in the extrusion of plastic containers for hospital use. A visit to them was memorable. The wood factory is a well-light and large warehouse built by Raúl. The plastics factory: a chemical laboratory. Casa Ortega had to incorporate an industrial character into its expression. A steel structure and an assembly logic were chosen with this purpose in mind. Raul, though, did not want to live in a factory. He grew up in Sangolquí, not long ago an agricultural valley dotted with brick ovens.

哪一种是适当的材料，这个画像的纹理？劳尔与父亲一起管理着两家工厂：一家专业生产木材部件，另一家是挤出塑料容器供医院使用。访问他们是令人难忘的。这个木厂是由劳尔建造的一个井灯和大型仓库。塑料厂：一个化学实验室。CasaOrtega必须在其表达中加入一个工业特性。选择钢结构和装配逻辑时考虑到此目的。但劳尔不想住在工厂里。他是在桑格奎里长大的，不久前，一个农业山谷里到处都是砖炉。

Black bubbles protruding from the baked bricks had provided the calligraphy that characterized walls in the region. His house had to be a hybrid of factory and rustic rural house made of steel, brick, glass, grass and trees (yet to grow). It was imperative to integrate the new house into its context and the future into Raúl´s present.

从烧砖上突出出来的黑色气泡提供了该地区墙壁特征的书法。他的房子必须是由钢铁、砖、玻璃、草和树木制成的工厂和乡村房屋的混合体(尚未生长)。必须将新房子纳入其背景，并将未来纳入劳尔的现在。
