西班牙馬德里甜蜜的城市之屋

The project’s aim is to host an artist linked to the Conde Duque and provide a workplace as much as a temporary home. Its final location is a bright corner of only 18sqm, on theater's lobby at first floor. In this hall’s enclave there are two windows overlooking the Liria Palace and Madrid skyline, a valuable asset to be incorporated into the project.But before being moved to this final spot, the piece had to be built in the centre of the main courtyard so that the general public could visit it during the Madrid Design Festival.

The proposal consists in a minimum timber house where one can sleep, eat, work or relax. A small cell introduced into a bigger and lighter house acting as intermediate space between the first and the outside. A space full of light and nature where the ground can be hard, sloped or even unstable, where you can climb, change height, wander and even take ownership of a corner.

The house inside another house allows, by combining two very different materials such us polycarbonate and timber, to recreate two almost opposite environments. One is the shelter, opaque, warm, and isolated. The second, luminous, bright and transparent is where vegetation finds its place and voids are openned to enjoy the view of the sunset in the city. The tree, main character of this space, highlights the importance and beauty of the nature in combination with the architecture. This, together with the possibility of changing spaces, having crossed views and manipulate the space through elements that pop up, multiplies the house's possibilities and the feeling of being in a bigger place. It is a sequence and superposition of spaces with their own material qualities, versatile enough to accommodate a multitude of creative activities where the user decides, the architecture does not impose.

The volume’s silhouette is not casual. It deliberately recalls the house that a child would draw to evoke the home and gives the user the felling of “being at home” for a few days despite being placed in the lobby of a theater. Furthermore, this simple and iconic shape bring us to childhood. The idea of the dollhouse introduces a playful aspect that invites to have fun, to climb and reach the net and to discover yourself in the tree house.

這個建築案旨在接待一位與杜克公爵文化中心（Conde Duque）相關的藝術家，為他提供工作場所及臨時住所。其最終位置位於劇院大廳一樓僅18平方公尺的明亮角落。這塊四周被大廳包圍的空間有兩扇可俯瞰利里亞宮（Liria Palace）和馬德里天際線的窗，是必須納入設計中的珍貴資產。但是在搬到最終地點之前，建築必須在主庭院中央建造，以便讓民眾在馬德里設計節期間參觀。

設計內容是一棟極簡的木屋，可在此睡覺、吃飯、工作或休息。在一間較大、較輕的房屋中有一間小房屋，大屋在小屋和戶外之間形成一個光線充足、充滿自然元素的中介空間。地面可以是堅硬的、傾斜的甚至是不穩定的，讓人在其中能夠恣意攀爬、改變高度、四處遊走，甚至佔據一個角落。

屋中屋的設計透過結合兩種差異極大的材料（例如聚碳酸酯和木材），創造出兩個幾乎相反的環境。一個是溫暖而孤立的不透明庇護所；一個是明亮透明的發光空間，這裡為植物保留了位置，為欣賞城市日落美景開闢了空間。樹木是這個空間的主角，凸顯出建築結合自然的重要和美麗。搭配空間變動的可能性、交叉的視野以及臨時元素操縱空間的設計，擴大了房屋變化的可能性，和置身於更大空間的錯覺。這是以自身材料銜接與疊加而成的空間，擁有十足的機動性，可容納眾多創意活動，且都是由用戶決定，而非建築本身強加的。

房屋外型並非隨意設計，而是特意讓人回想起孩童所畫的房屋，且即便位於劇院大廳，仍能讓住戶有「身在家中」“being at home”的感覺。此外，其簡單而經典的形狀帶我們回到了童年。玩具屋的概念賦予它好玩有趣的特質，讓人特別想要在樹屋中玩耍、攀爬、觸摸護網，從而發掘自我。
