House in Messiness, Portugal

葡萄牙 梅西尼什住宅

Vitor Vilhena Architects

Algarve, in the South of Portugal does not only live by the sea. Proof of this is the village of São Bartolomeu de Messines, municipality of Silves - located in the interior of the Algarve, far from the mass tourism that occupies the whole coast, and privileged by the mountains that surround the whole region. It is in this remote village that the project is located. Surrounded by valleys, mountains and two reservoirs, the dam of Funcho and the dam of Arade.

 

居住在葡萄牙南方(South of Portugal)的阿加夫(Algarve)地形並非僅攏靠一覽的海岸線。位於阿加夫內陸的聖巴托洛梅烏迪梅西尼什村(São Bartolomeu de Messines)便是最佳的佐證,遠離佔據整個海岸線的觀光地區,座落在山林環繞的丘地。此建築案座落於偏遠的梅西尼什村落裡,周遭環繞著山谷、山丘、兩座水庫和豐秀(Funcho)與阿拉吉(Arade)兩個大壩。

The "House of Messines", is based on an existing building, already in ruins, but with a fantastic orientation East-West, and with a rhythm of openings for light source already very inviting. The fact that there was a built structure was the only reason Vitor Vilhena Architects were able to emerge such a work in this picturesque place. Due to the diverse bureaucratic restrictions of implantation, it was mandatory to "overlay" the project to the existing ruin, extending its body in the longitudinal axis towards South. Privileging the views and natural light, the rhythm of windows were recreated in the East facade, opening completely and leaving a hovering corner when the volume folds to north.

 

這棟「梅西尼什住宅」(House of Messines)是根據舊有住宅改建而成。荒涼的舊宅已成了廢墟,但坐向在絕佳的東西向,恰好在滿面和煦的採光之中,譜出朝氣十足的氛圍。因原本的建築架構,使維克多.維列納建築事務所(Vitor Vilhena Architects)得以在這風景如畫的地區,重新建構出這一棟非凡的住宅。由於在地繁複的建築法規限制,使房屋的架構需完全「覆蓋」(Overlay)在原有的廢棄建築物上,再將縱向軸的建築體朝南延伸。為了不辜負如此美景與自然光源的優勢,維克多.維列納建築事務所重新設計了東側窗口位置,使這一側立面完全開放,並將北端轉角處懸吊的建築體保持封閉。

The interior of the house is a large space that prioritizes fluidity and communication in the social area‭ (‬living room‭, ‬dining room and kitchen‭), ‬but closes and limits its access in the private area where the bedrooms are located as well as the service entrance‭. ‬As a form of respect for the surroundings and not to obstruct more than necessary‭, ‬Vitor Vilhena Architects chose to locate the pool on the rooftop‭, ‬in a volume which doesn't touch the ground‭, ‬and is completely suspended in the air‭. ‬This decision guarantees a total access to the rooftop as a second social area of the house‭, ‬privileging the magnificent 360º‭ ‬views‭, ‬even being inside the pool‭.‬

 

室內寬敞的公共空間,設計著重於社交時的區域動線(客廳、餐廳及廚房),但同樣位於入口旁的私人區域仍保持該有的隱私,使客人們不易隨意進入。為表達對於周圍環境間的尊重,盡可能減少繁冗的設計,選擇將游泳池置於不會接觸地面的建築屋頂,完全懸吊在半空中。這樣的設計讓游泳池成為可自由進出的第二個社交區域,即使悠游地在游泳池中,也能享盡360度環繞的水光山色。
