这项雄心勃勃的项目汇集了44名国际建筑师
The Ambitious Project that Brings Together 44 Mexican and International Architects

由专筑网李韧，朱王倩编译

在墨西哥南下加利福尼亚州，这里有860公顷的旅游发展区域“Cuatro Cuatros”，在过去的十年里，这里由Mauricio Rocha和Gabriela Carrillo of Taller de Arquitectura 负责监管设计，曾经只有一些单调的丛林与石头。

尽管场地看起来很广阔，但只有360公顷的土地将用于住房建设，其中只有10%的建筑会受到影响。本项目的挑战在于要将场地上的原有建筑弱化，就如同这是一片原始的区域一样。以一种将现有建筑景观化的策略来完成整个设计。

In Baja California, Mexico, the 860 hectares that make up 'Cuatro Cuatros'—a tourism development that for the past ten years has been overseen and designed by Mauricio Rocha and Gabriela Carrillo of Taller de Arquitectura—present an arid and mostly monochromatic landscape interrupted only by stones and bushland.
Vast as the site may seem, only 360 of its hectares will be destined for housing development, of which only 10% can be impacted by construction. The challenge will lay in mitigating the protagonistic stance architecture usually assumes when conquering previously untouched lands, by taking on a presence that disappears into the landscape.

在今年9月2日，墨西哥建筑师Gabriela Carrillo与她的同事们共同展示了Cuatro Cuatros过去十年所开发的项目。

该项目的基本设计任务并不是仅仅只考虑着远离城市的土地，Carrillo更加关注的是这个项目的基本概念问题，例如，该项目是否可以不采用加建的形式？甚至减少部分体量？一棵树是否能与建筑紧密相关？建筑如何与景观场地建立对话？对于场地的影响能否降低至最小？

On September 2nd of the present year, Mexican architect Gabriela Carrillo stood before a group of her most lauded colleagues and presented the work she has developed alongside Mauricio Rocha for the past decade in Cuatro Cuatros.
And though the most basic design tasks were no easy feat in a such an area mostly disconnected from any major city, during her presentation Carrillo focused instead on conceptual issues, asking questions such as, how can one build through not only addition, but also subtraction? How can a tree be made a building's accomplice? How can architecture establish a dialogue with the landscape, mutilating the mountain in the smallest way possible?

由Mauricio Rocha、Gabriela Carrillo 以及Claudia Turrent组成的委员会，决定汇集44名来自不同国家的建筑师，来共同商讨这个住宅项目，从而“集大家之所长，制定该项目的发展原则，以及了解不同的建筑师的设计理念。”

这些建筑师受邀来参加关于该项目的探讨，本次的探讨结果将成为Cuatro Cuatros项目的指导思想，即在360公顷的场地上建设500座家庭住宅。受邀建筑师名单如下：

Her intention and the reason behind the committee—made up of Mauricio Rocha, Gabriela Carrillo and Claudia Turrent—deciding to summon to the site 44 national and international architects was to invite them to develop the residential area of Cuatro Cuatros together, and "find their strengths in the multiplicity of architectural manifestations and the project's guiding principle in the relationship between architecture and territory."
The following architects were invited to create a manifesto that will guide their collaborative participation in the residential project of Cuatro Cuatros: 500 homes located in 360 hectares.

在圆桌会议上，每一位建筑师都能就三个主题发表意见：风景、环境和物质条件。

虽然该项目所面临的挑战十分巨大且多样，但这项活动很具有建设性，能够展示建筑师群体中各种各样的想法。

Cuatro Cuatro项目构思的新阶段来源于这样的想法，我们的社会正面临着一些先前建立的观念，这些观念来源于日常住宅与自然景观，我们要记住的是，正如墨西哥南下加利福尼亚州这样的地区，对于场地上的种种条件，建筑师们应当取其精华，去其糟粕。

In a round table open to the public, each architect was able to voice his or her opinion on three subjects: the landscape, the context, and the material condition.
And though the challenges the group will face are undeniably immense and varied, as a first approach, the event was constructive and showed the wide variety of ideas present among the group of architects.
Cuatro Cuatro's new stage is born from the idea that we as a society are facing the end of some previously established notions of what it means to inhabit and visit natural landscapes, keeping in mind that in a site such as the one offered in Baja California, architecture should be silent and leave room for imperfection.
