Selva Alegre的设计是从周围环境——厄瓜多尔的安第斯山脉中汲取灵感。这座木屋远离城市，坐落在开阔的自然景色中，是理想的休闲空间选择。设计理念是建造一座在概念和视觉上与周围自然风光融为一体的住宅。建筑位于场地的一端，靠近小溪的边缘，这使得整个项目构成一个连续的视觉享受。

Selva Alegre was created to takeinspiration from the surrounding environment, the Andes Mountains in Ecuador.This wooden house is located away from the city, in an open landscape ideal fora retreat space. The idea was to make a house that would be unifiedconceptually and visually with the surrounding natural scenery. The dwellingsits at one end of the lot, near the edge of a creek, allowing uninterruptedvisuals throughout the project.

设计策略是将一楼尽可能作为开放空间，并明晰功能划分，以便向典型的“庄园式风格”靠拢，但同时具有现代元素。团队希望重塑此地具有数百年历史的周末度假别墅，这种类型的建筑在历史上一直主导着从哥伦比亚到秘鲁的山区景观。设计在形式和材料方面回到庄园的根源，以当代的建造技术重新运用木材，石头和粘土，使建筑轻盈而通风。从概念上讲，设计为建筑赋予了连续的波浪形屋顶，轻轻地保护着下方的空间。

The strategy was to leave the ground flooras open as possible and the programmatic divisions clear, so that the designresembles that of a typical “hacienda house” but with a modern twist. We wantedto reinvent the user experience of these centuries old weekend escapes, atypology that has historically dominated the mountainous landscapes fromColombia to Peru. Our concept was to return to the roots of the hacienda interms of form and material. Bring back the use of wood, stone and clay but witha contemporary mindset, one that felt light and airy. This strategy resultedconceptually in a continuous wavy blanket which gently protects the programbelow it.

室内空间中，位于中央的空隙将住宅的公共和私人空间进行了清晰的划分，保留了传统庄园房屋的布局。天窗照亮了室内外泳池与中央空间，同时也通过交叉通风和烟囱效应的生物气候策略在房屋内创造了舒适的温度环境。

At the interior, a central void creates aclear division between the social and private spaces of the house, preservingthe typology of the traditional hacienda house. Overhead light brightens theindoor-outdoor pool and main circulation inside this intermediate space throughskylights that also create thermal comfort inside the house through bioclimaticstrategies of cross ventilation and chimney effect.

卧室，客厅，餐厅和厨房等主要空间通过预制层压梁向周围的景观开放，曲率使它们构成了奇妙的视觉效果，在环境和房屋之间创造了共生关系。起伏的山脉是波浪形房梁的灵感来源。

The main spaces such as bedrooms, livingroom, dining room and kitchen are opened towards the surrounding landscapethrough prefabricated laminated beams whose curvature frames the visuals,creating a symbiosis between the context and the house. The movement of themountains served as an inspiration in the beam’s volumetric conception.

可持续的层压木结构系统全部在欧洲预制完成，以便在厄瓜多尔进行后续组装。层压木材是建筑的首选材料，既因为它的柔韧性，也因为它为设计增添了自然的感觉。计算机化的参数化模型确保了模块化和特定的梁和屋顶的整体可施工性，因此房屋的建造高效而经济。同样，模块化部件推动了快速和高质量的施工进度。自动化机器用于精确地切割和制造每一块木头，创造出一个在组装时完美贴合的拼图。层压和弯曲的梁以相同的半径重复，从而创造出屋顶的不同褶皱效果。结构的三角形式使装配过程变得高效，也便于运输。房屋的涂层使用了当地材料，例如石头，瓷砖，并请当地工匠手工制作了铜色涂层的钢窗。

A sustainable laminated wood constructionsystem is used for the structure which was completely pre-manufactured inEurope, for subsequent assembly in Ecuador. Laminated wood was our material ofchoice, both for its flexible properties as well as for the natural feelingthat it adds to our design. The computerized parametric model allowed therepetition of specific beams and a total constructability of the roof so thatit would be efficient and affordable.Likewise, the repetition of pieces alloweda fast and high construction quality. Automated machines were used toaccurately cut and fabricate each piece of wood, creating a puzzle that fittedperfectly when assembled. The laminated and curved beams are repeated with thesame radius, which allow the different folds of the roof. The triangulation ofthe structure creates an efficient assembly and also ease of transportation.For the coating of the house local materials were used such as stone, tile andthe use of local craftsmen for the profiling of the windows made ofcopper-colored coated steel, which were handmade.

住宅最终呈现出是石材和玻璃的微妙平衡，由充满活力而舒适的木结构所覆盖，真正与其环境相辅相成。室内设计遵循最初的概念，具有美丽的现代纹理和材料，平衡并激活了建筑空间。从先进制造业的使用到木材产品的现代化处理，再到结合本地和国际的建造经验，在当地工业中可以获得许多知识和信息。 这是厄瓜多尔首次将这种类型的建筑实现如此细致的水平。将数字技术与当地的手工劳动技术相结合，不仅创造出一种独特的建筑形式，并且为提高该国的建筑的潜能做出了贡献。

The final result is a delicate balance ofstone and glass that is blanketed by an energetic yet comforting wood structurethat is truly complementary to its setting. The interiors follow the initialconcept with beautiful modern textures and material artifacts that balance andactivate the architectural space. From the use of advanced manufacturing to themodern use of timber products to combining local and international experiences,there was much knowledge and information to gain in the local industry. This is the first time that a construction ofthis type has been achieved to such a detailed level in Ecuador. Integratingdigital technology with local manual labor techniques has not only led us toproduce a unique type of architecture but also to contribute to the improvementof construction possibilities in the country.
