Spanish Regions · Contemporary Interpretation: A Pane of Glass in Thick Walls

A contemporary regional building. The proportions of the volume, roof pitch, and wall thickness completely follow local tradition: thick walls of rough stone, a low-pitched barrel tile roof, and small, deep window openings. However, one of the walls is entirely cut open and fitted with a large, frameless glass pane, with a frame so thin it's almost invisible, revealing a completely contemporary interior. The boundary between old and new is a clean straight line, without any transitional decoration. The surroundings are an untamed natural landscape.
Avoid: using antique details to make old and new indistinguishable, ignoring traditional volumetric proportions and only borrowing materials, adding decoration to the new part, making the surroundings a manicured garden.

一棟當代的地域建築。量體的比例、屋頂坡度與牆體厚度完全沿用當地傳統:粗石砌的厚牆、低緩的筒瓦屋頂、小而深的窗洞;但其中一面牆被整片挖開,嵌進一大片無框玻璃,框細到幾乎看不見,裡面是完全當代的室內。新舊的分界是一道乾淨的直線,沒有任何過渡的裝飾。周圍是未整理的原生地景。避免:用仿古細節讓新舊難以分辨、忽略傳統的量體比例只借用材料、在新的部分加入裝飾、把周圍做成整理過的庭園。
