为两个男孩建造的庭院住宅

这栋建筑的设计师和其家人既想居住在繁华的圣保罗、又想享受宁静的生活，因此选择了在圣保罗州较为宁静的Vinhedo市建造这座房屋。建筑在新冠疫情前不久完工，于是这栋房屋成为了一家人的小宇宙。

Deciding to divide their time between the capital São Paulo and a calmer city, architect and family chose to build in Vinhedo SP. Completed shortly before the pandemic, the house became a universe for parents and children.

而年幼的孩童更喜欢单层的房子——这样可以从卧室直接走到草地上去。于是设计师构造了四个相互连接的凉亭组成的庭院：包含烧烤区（正对建筑前的湖景）、客厅、卧室和室内游泳池。

With young children, the preference was for a single-story house -- that one could step on grass from the bedrooms. The solution is a courtyard house formed by four interconnected pavilions: barbecue area (enjoying the view of a lake in front of the house), living room, bedrooms, and an indoor pool.

庭院是毋庸置疑的房屋中心，是建筑的“精神内核”。雨天，每个房间都能看到雨水浇灌院子中那颗稀有的黄檀树。晴朗的日子则可以看到孩子们在花园里玩耍。

The courtyard, central to everyone, is the genius loci -- the "spirit of the place". From all rooms, rain can be seen watering the singular yellow ipe. On a sunny day, one can see the children playing in the garden.

In terms of materiality, it was intended an austere palette and with the aspiration that the construction can get better with the passage of time. The house is mostly made of concrete blocks (structural masonry), with a set of concrete beams and panelized slabs -- all exposed.

饰面采用相同的设计：地板是硬木或葡萄牙马赛克石。夹层的建造让起居室有了一个双高的天花板，上倒映着木屏风的阴影。

The finishes follow the same thinking: flooring is either hardwood or Portuguese mosaic stones. With the creation a mezzanine, a double height ceiling is established in the living room – which receives shading of a wooden screen on the face of the patio.

▽室内构造

小型游泳池是带顶的封闭式，由太阳能加热。这个设计主要作为日常使用，同时通过游泳消耗孩子们的能量的方式避免家庭矛盾，这里也同样可作为冥想处（像旅馆的温泉一样）。

The lap pool is covered and enclosed, heated by solar panels. The idea is an invitation to daily, ambivalent use - a strategy to burn children's energy, and a meditative place (like a ryokan's onsen).

造型艺术在该项目中同样发挥了重要作用，包含João Nitsche 特别设计的泳池中几何瓷砖，以及 Erica Mizutani 设计的壁炉上方的竖向装饰画。

Plastic art plays a prominent role in the project, with a geometric tile panel in the pool specially designed by João Nitsche, and a vertical canvas on the fireplace by Erica Mizutani.
