厄瓜多尔AO住宅
AO House / Studio Alfa

由专筑网王沛儒，李韧编译

来自建筑事务所的描述。AO住宅的设计核心是其周边的景观环境，客户也要求主要空间能够充分利用周边景观。建筑的布局呼应了空间特征，在这里，使用者、建筑、各个装置将构成完美的对话。

Text description provided by the architects. House AO is based within a context where landscape is one of the core conditioning factors for its design. The client requested that the main spaces take part of the best views; the architectonic response was to propose spatiality where the user, the architecture, and the setting would dialogue.









该地块位于厄瓜多尔北部城市奥塔瓦洛边缘的高地上。最引人注目的景观是朝向东方的一面，这一侧面向Imbabura火山，这个背景标志着空间组织的轴线。

The lot finds itself on an elevated area bordering the city of Otavalo. The preponderating views are towards the east, gazing at the Imbabura volcano. This context marks the axis which organizes and builds the spatial scheme.



场地位于安第斯山脉，这里非常寒冷。因此就构成了另一个重要的限制，即在不使用机电加热系统的情况下，减少全年流动的强北风和低温给建筑带来的影响。

Found within the equatorial Andes, the site is very cold; this posed another important condition: to reduce incidence of the strong northern winds that flow throughout the year and the low temperatures without using electromechanical heating systems.



场地的这些条件影响着房子的朝向，这是一个关键因素，这能够使主要的空间有最好的视野，同时也让建筑有着良好的光照条件，从而在一天中保持舒适的温度。

These conditions of the site marked the orientation of the house as a pivotal factor so that the main spaces would have the best views and at the same time allow the entry of the largest amount of sunlight, so to maintain a pleasant temperature during the whole day.







建筑师构思了两个平行的体量，然后进行旋转，保持良好的日照，呼应外部山体景观。同时，这也能够有效地减少北风对于建筑的影响。两个垂直轴线穿过各个体量，将不同的功能空间连接起来，其中有服务空间、社交空间，以及私人空间。第一个轴线标志着入口，它是住宅的主要流线路径，它就如同画廊，由南至北贯穿室内空间。

The volumetric proposal contemplates two parallel volumes placed over a plinth of stone, and rotated over the lot so that they are aligned with both the rising sun and the peak of the Imbabura. This rotation also allows for the northern winds to hit against the building and preclude the pass of dust and cold into the house. Two perpendicular axes cross the volumes connecting the different spaces: service, social, and private. The first axis marks the entrance, and it turns into the main circulation path of the house; it works as a gallery to go over the interior spaces of the house from south to north.



根据客户的需求，建筑师将5米高的客厅放置在房子的中心，这是建筑的主要场所，同时也能够促进人们的交流，客厅朝向外部的一侧为玻璃幕墙。其东面是外部社交区域，该区域的中央有着消防坑、长凳和茂盛的植被。西面是封闭的烧烤区，是社交区域的延伸，通透的空间也让人们能够充分欣赏Imbabura山的美景。

To enhance the social area, which according to the client had to be the main space, a five meter height living room was placed at the center of the house with absolute transparency towards the exteriors. To the east of the living room an exterior social area with a central fire-pit, a bench, and lush vegetation complements the area. Towards the west, a closed barbecue area acts as a link with the exterior and functions as an element to expand the social area; the transparency of this space allows a direct view of the Imbabura.







厨房和主卧室位于两个体块的东端，这是将它们与主景观联系起来的必要条件。建筑师将建筑的屋顶抬高，这个策略可以使房间内部有着充足的日照，更重要的是，这个造型也表达了对景色壮观的Imbabura山的敬意。

石头、砖和屋顶瓷砖等材料将建筑扎根于其环境中，与周围的房屋保持和谐。巨大的玻璃幕墙保证了室内空间与环境之间的流动关系，室内可以获取到充足的阳光。裸露的钢结构和白色的墙壁将当代和传统建筑语言和谐地结合在一起。

Location of the kitchen and master bedroom at the eastern extremes of both volumes is born as a requirement to link them with the main view. We raised the roofs at the extremes as an architectonic strategy to capture the most of the morning sun. More so, this gesture manifests reverence towards the astounding Imbabura.
Materials such as stone, brick, and roof-tile pretend to root the architecture to its context and maintain harmony with the surrounding houses. The big glassed walls allow for a fluid relation of the interior space with the context, as well as to receive abundant sunlight in the interior. The exposed steel structure and the white walls conjugate harmoniously in the duality of the contemporary and traditional architectonic languages.
