The idea that originated this project came from the subtle murmurs whispered by an environment like this, which were carefully listened to, and from the client's search for protection and shelter. How can one feel protected? and in any case, what can be done when feeling vulnerable? This question was accompanied by an image or perhaps a memory: that of a frightened child covering himself with a light bed sheet as he looks out to make sure he sees what is going on around him. Pulling a bed sheet to cover up is a very elemental act that alludes to the most basic part of the self; a bed sheet hides, protects, wraps, and creates a space underneath so safe and intimate. Architecture should be in this case an accent mark on the words of a poem, a comma, or in any case a question mark, but it should never be the poem itself. The poem is already given by the pines, the oaks, the sweet acacia, the fireflies, the road, the fence, the neighbor's water well, the earth, the orchard, and the nightingale. Such accents marks in the poem were four concrete walls that emerged surprisingly from the landscape; two of them bear the land of this new hill that appeared by raising the bed sheet.
該項目的靈感源於設計師聆聽環境發出的低聲細語,並從中賦予業主尋求一處心靈庇護所的需求。當人獨處或脆弱時,如何感到安全感?這道叩問伴隨著一幅畫面或是一段記憶:一個受驚的孩子用淺色床單蓋住自己,但同時向外窺看,確保知曉周圍發生的事情。因此,拉床單是相當自然的行為,它暗示了人尋求隱藏、保護,並在其中創造一個安全和親密的空間。在這種情況下,建築應該是詩詞上的重音、逗號或問號,絕非詩歌本身,因為四周的松樹、橡樹、相思樹、螢火蟲、果園和夜鶯等萬物,早已圓滿了這首詩歌。而作為詩歌重音的四堵混凝土牆,彷彿是覆蓋這座山頭地景的床單。
After crossing the tree threshold, going down a few solid pearled stone steps, and opening a heavy steel door, a concrete vault stands there. It supports the loads of the green bed sheet that rests on it and gives a sensation of being inside a cold, dark, but strangely cozy cave. Concrete was chosen as the main material because of a dream of this new rock melting while inevitably interacting with the forest, changing colors... grays that turned to greens, blacks and yellows that were gradually incorporated into the environment. As for the spatial organization, the public areas are completely exposed to the wooded ravine on the left side of the house; the private areas on the right side open more timidly to a courtyard that allows to see the sky and the top of some trees but shuts down a bit from the outside. It was important to have the least possible references to elements that would connect to a specific moment in time, so the refrigerator and appliances were hidden, the lighting was arranged very discreetly, and only the four main materials were included: stone, wood, concrete, and steel. It was very important for the client to preserve the rough and primitive atmosphere of the mountains.
當人們跨過樹檻,向下踏過珠光石階並推開一扇厚重的鋼門,映入眼簾是一座混凝土拱頂。它支撐著上面覆蓋植栽的綠色床單,給人一種置身於寒冷、黑暗,但異常舒適的洞穴中。之所以選擇混凝土作為主要材料,在於它會隨時間產生色澤上的變化,從灰色逐漸變成綠色、黑色和黃色,最終與環境融為一體。端詳空間布局,公領域完全暴露在住宅左側樹木繁茂的幽谷中,右側的私領域則相較謹慎地向庭院開放。身處庭院中可看到天空和樹梢,但無法從外界窺視。此外,設計師盡可能減少機能設備的外露,因此隱藏了冰箱、電器,甚至照明,讓建築內外只有石材、木材、混凝土和鋼鐵等四種材質語彙,滿足業主想保留山區粗獷原始的氛圍。
