義大利皮埃蒙特　野地之室

1986年，義大利爆發甲醇葡萄酒事件，重創釀酒產業，部分土地自此逐漸回歸自然狀態。「野地之室」靜靜佇立於這片樹林間，被樹叢些微遮蔽，亦處處折射微光。抽象而低調的構件，在此不被視為獨立建築，而是自然地滲入地景之中，成為環境的一部分。

In 1986, the discovery of illegally added methanol in over 300 Italian wine brands shattered trust in the industry, leading many vineyards to be abandoned and left to regenerate naturally. Within this recovering landscape, The Missing Room proposes a renewed relationship between humans and nature. Free of walls and ceiling, it exists beyond the conventional house, positioning nature as the primary inhabitant and humans as temporary guests. Activated by water and fire, the project reimagines primal rituals—resting, cooking, bathing, and gathering— as shared, open-air experiences beneath tree canopies and sky, inviting a slower pace and a redefinition of domestic life.

本案跳脫傳統「房間」的定義，量體以森林為墻、以大地為界，在此人與自然共生，並非居於其中，亦不佔有，而是以訪客的姿態停留體驗，並隨即離開。場域中央是一座約七公尺高的垂直多功能煙囪，火源一側為烤爐提供熱能，另一側加熱浴池，配置自然對流加熱系統，可供三至四人使用； 單人使用時，可透過隔板縮小容量，以節省用水。當浴池關閉後，其表面可轉換為溫暖平台，上方可依需求架設帆布遮棚作為遮蔭，同時作為睡眠場域。量體尺度回應周圍高聳樹木，升騰煙霧亦成為引導方向的訊號。隱藏於構件的門片整合了兩座烤爐與排煙系統，操作時可將檯面轉化為大型煎盤， 並與用水系統共構空間的運作核心。在此，「火」與「水」成為啟動場域的關鍵元素。水流自入口引入，沿主水道分配至各個使用節點，依需求注滿浴池、使用水槽，或供牲畜飲水，重新詮釋休息、飲食、清潔與交流等最原始的生活行為。這些活動在此不被刻意區分，而是在大自然裡交織展開。

As visitors move through the landscape, The Missing Room reveals itself through fleeting glimpses of small secondary structures embedded in the forest, preparing the approach to the central encounter. At its core rises a seven-meter-tall monolithic chimney. Fire fuels the ovens on one side and heats water for bathing on the other, while also warming the space. Reaching the height of the surrounding trees, the chimney becomes a beacon above the canopy, its smoke guiding visitors through the landscape. Concealed doors integrate two ovens into the chimney's extraction system, allowing the worktop to transform into a large frying surface. Together with the water elements, these features form the heart of the room. Water, like fire, activates the structure. Released at the entrance, it flows through a main channel that distributes water to basins throughout the space. Users direct the flow by adding or removing plugs—to fill the bath, use the sink, or supply the cattle trough. The bath beside the channel accommodates three to four people and is heated through natural convection; for solo use, a partition reduces its volume to conserve water. When closed, the bath becomes a heated surface for resting or sleeping. A removable sail canopy provides shade and rain protection, casting dappled shadows by day and reflecting recessed lighting at night to transform the structure into a glowing lantern.

白天，樹影在帆布上流動；夜晚，內嵌燈光成為標示場域的存在。為減少對土地的干擾，整體結構採模組化設計，以不鏽鋼打造並使用螺旋樁基礎，具備耐候性與可回收特性，確保在必要時可完整移除而不留下痕跡。沐浴與烹飪所產生的廢水經過濾後，回歸及滋養大地，滿足長時間使用與自然共存的需求，邀請旅人重新思考「居住」意義。

To protect the land, the modular structure rests on a non-invasive screw-pile foundation, ensuring no permanent traces are left if removal becomes necessary. Wastewater from bathing and cooking is filtered and dispersed into the field, creating irrigated and wet areas that support biodiversity. Constructed from stainless steel, the refuge is durable, recyclable, and resistant to weathering.
