Located in the Coghlan neighbourhood of Argentina’s city Buenos Aires, a unique apartment structure called the Pedraza Building was recently completed by A3 Luppi Ugalde Winter with the goal of making the most of a small urban space in order to benefit several families at once.

A3LuppiUgaldeWinter最近在阿根廷城市布宜诺斯艾利斯的Coghlan附近，A3LuppiUgaldeWinter完成了一套名为Pedraza大楼的独特的公寓结构，目的是充分利用一个小的城市空间，以便同时受益于几个家庭。

From the time of its conception and original plans, the Pedraza Building was intended to house an entire set of multi-family homes right in the same space. By challenging traditional ideas of who can share what kind of space, how homes might be organized, and how private and public spaces might coexist in more shared context than usual, these designers built a home building that’s contemporary in many more ways than just how it looks. Despite being home to more than just one family, creating an interesting blend of dynamics in an already unique home space, this building is actually incredibly homey. It is simply an adjustment when it comes to transitionary spaces and participatory relationships outside of just the standard family unit, but not so closely co-existing as live-in roommates might experience.

从其概念和最初的计划来看，Peraza大楼的目的是在同一空间内容纳一套完整的多家庭住宅。通过挑战传统的人可以分享什么样的空间，如何组织家庭，以及私人和公共空间如何在更多的共享环境中共存，而不是像往常一样，这些设计师构建了一个“现代”的家庭建筑，而不仅仅是它的外观。尽管家庭不仅仅是一个家庭，但在一个已经独特的家庭空间中创造了一个有趣的动态混合，这个建筑实际上是令人难以置信的家园。在仅仅是标准家庭单元之外的过渡空间和参与关系时，仅仅是一个调整，而不是如此紧密地共存，因为生活在室友中可能会有经验。

The building is organized and conceptualized around ideas of community. Its structure rises up around a common space in the middle that serves as a sort of nucleus, with transitionary hallways leading from there like circulation spots. At the ends of these is where the private areas, those where the different families sleep and customize their own spaces, can be found.

该建筑是围绕社区的理念组织和概念化的。它的结构在中间的一个公共空间周围升起，这是一种核，过渡的走廊就像流经的地方。在这些区域的尽头，可以找到私人区域，也就是不同家庭睡觉和定制自己空间的地方。

This unique organization makes one feel as though they inhabit more than just heir own small apartment. Instead, they joint occupy the entire building together. This is true from the welcoming lobby space on the ground floor all the way up to the shared leisure space at the very top of the building, on the sunny terrace.

这个独特的组织让人觉得他们居住的不仅仅是继承人自己的小公寓。相反，他们共同占领整个大楼。这是真实的，从欢迎大厅空间的底层，一直到共享的休闲空间，在最顶端的建筑，在阳光平台。

The space we’ve touched on that sits on the ground floor is organized into two essential areas. There is a main shared housing block at the front bottom of the building, with an individual house for a single family at the back. The main house portion extends upwards, splitting into seven different units, comprising the varied “multi-family” element of the residence.

我们所触及的位于底层的空间被组织成两个基本区域。在楼的前部有一个主共用的住房区，后面有一个单独的房子供一个家庭居住。主住宅部分向上延伸，分成七个不同的单元，包括住宅的各种“多家庭”元素。

The first, second, and third floors feature two units each, but the fourth floor is slightly different. This floor is shared by two units that face each other with a building-wide shared terrace sitting in between them. Back on the ground floor, the individual house portion is designed with maximum space efficiency in mind.

第一层、第二层和第三层各有两个单元，但四楼略有不同。这一层是由两个单元共享的，他们之间有一个建筑物一样宽的共享露台。回到底层，个人住宅部分的设计考虑到了最大的空间效率。

The reason for this part of the home’s conservative spatial footprint is that designers wanted to leave as much space in the plot for outdoor spaces to be enjoyed by all of the building’s residences, The space that is not taken up by units and the individual house is now home to front and back courtyards that offer an impressive amount of privacy and respite.

这个部分家庭的保守空间足迹的原因是，设计师们希望在所有建筑的住宅中留出更多的空间供户外空间使用，而不是由单位占据的空间，而单独的房子现在回到了前面和后面的庭院里，这些庭院提供了令人印象深刻的隐私和休息。

The placement of the courtyards, which sit as a kind of inner portion of the building despite actually being outdoor spaces, is modelled after classic ideas of colonial housing from the beginning of the century. In these old houses, courtyards were the heart of the house, acting like a sort of central hub around which the daily lives of all members of the home were organized.

院落虽然实际上是室外空间，但却是建筑内部的一种布局，它是仿照本世纪初殖民式住宅的经典理念而发展起来的。在这些老房子里，庭院是房子的中心，就像一个中央中心，围绕着所有家庭成员的日常生活。

Because this building was erected much more vertically than those old houses, however, designers saw a need to maintain easy connections between units and all other common spaces. This is how the upper floor bridges came about! These bridges pass over the lower courtyards, acting like transitionary open air spaces that let copious amounts of natural light into the building’s core.

然而，由于这个建筑比那些旧房子垂直地竖立得多，但是设计者们也看到了在单元和所有其它公共空间之间保持容易连接的需要。这就是上楼桥是怎么来的！这些桥穿过下部的庭院，起到过渡的开放空气空间的作用，让大量的自然光进入建筑物的核心。

The materiality of the house is just as unique as the way it was built and organized. Keeping things natural looking but appropriate for its urban context, designers chose to create balance in the space by playing strong, opaque shapes against glass walls and transparent spaces that increase easy visibility and the flow of air and light.

这所房子的重要性与它的建造和组织方式一样独特。保持事物的自然外观，但适合其城市环境，设计师选择创造平衡的空间，通过发挥强大的，不透明的形状与玻璃墙和透明的空间，增加容易的能见度和流动的空气和光线。

All combined, the unique elements of the house provide a sense of fluidity throughout the building, both in terms of atmosphere and social interaction and spatial understanding. The building truly is an example of humankind’s ability to adapt their habits and lifestyles around and in partnership with each other to best suit the spaces they have available and make them feel the most like a comfortable home.

在整个建筑中，房屋的独特元素在大气和社会互动以及空间理解方面都提供了一种流动性的感觉。该建筑真正是人类适应其习惯和生活方式以及彼此合作的能力的一个例子，以最适合他们可用的空间，并使他们感到最喜欢的是一个舒适的家庭。
