一块长20米、宽20米的人造巨石，放置在圣托里尼岛的景观中，像一块巨大的火山岩。人造巨石似乎从一开始就在那里，作为火山喷发的一块，它已经被自然元素塑造，主要是由海洋和风。

A man-made monolith of 20meters length and 20meters width, placed in the landscape of Santorini island, like a large piece of volcanic rock.The artificial massive stone as if it has been there from the start, as a piece of the volcanic eruption, it has been shaped by the elements of the nature, mostly by the sea and the wind.

同时，自然侵蚀暴露出固体质量和空洞的形成，感知到的整体大小保持不变。石头逐渐被移走的过程创造了封闭的户外生活空间。

While, the natural erosion exposed formations of solid mass and voids, the perceived size of the monolith is maintained.The gradually process of stones’ removal creates enclosed and outdoor living spaces.

巨石表面的洞构成了景观，并将光线引入石头的中心。皮肤的岩石、土壤和水泥的混合物,通过时间调整纹理和颜色的地球,有时白色和柔和的亮光的夏天,布朗没有太阳和灰色,悲观和粗糙的多云的天空。在房子内部，这种朴实的物质的感知不仅由于日光的变化，也由于人工照明的存在而改变。

Holes in the surface of the monolith frame the landscape and bring light in the heart of the stone.The skin of the rock, a mixture of soil and cement, through the time adjusted to the texture and the colors of the earth’s ground, sometimes whitish and soft in the bright light of the summer, brown in the absence of the sun and grey, gloomy and rough in the cloudy sky. Inside the house the perception of that earthy materiality is changed not only due to the alternations of daylight but also due to the presence of artificial lighting.

岩石庇护所的内部是一个开放的空间，包括客厅、用餐区、休闲和卫生空间，其中包括一个主要住宅和两个客房。一层的开放平面与外部庭院/露台和周围环境直接相关，如爱琴海的蓝色、前方藤蔓的黄色和绿色、夏粮和无水仙人掌。一个阁楼，在顶部，在一个拱形屋顶下，通向一个下沉的露台，一个观察的地方。

The interior of the rocky shelter is an open space that consists of living rooms, dining areas and spaces of relaxation and sanitation, that consist a main residence with two guesthouses. The open plan of the ground floor is in a direct relation with the exterior yards / patios and the surroundings such as the blue of the Aegean Sea, the yellow and green colours of the vines in front, the summer grains and the anhydrous cactus. An attic, on the top, under a vaulted roof leads to a sunken terrace, a place to observe.

由混凝土、黑石、大理石、木材、铁、天鹅绒、粘土和玻璃等各种材料制成的原始手工家具被辛勤地放置在室内外空间。在夏季，在眩目的阳光下，客人使用小水池保持凉爽，呆在巨石的周围，被野生的尖刺地中海植物包围。

Pieces of primitive, handmade furniture, made by various materials like, concrete, black stone, marble, wood, iron, velvet, clay and glass are diligently placed in the interior and exterior spaces.During the summer period and under the blinding sun, the guests use the small water-pools to keep cool, stay on the perimeter of the monolith, being surrounded by wild spiky mediterranean plants.
