House in Mundão Shaped by Topography and Intimate Design

▏House in Mundão

The land where the house is located has a regular, longitudinal shape and is perpendicular to Campo da Bola Street, in the parish of Mundão, located northeast of Viseu. The solar orientation (from the street to the interior) is West – East. Regarding the topography, the plot has a steep slope, ascending from the entrance. This morphological condition of the land influenced the programmatic and volumetric shape of the building.

With a decidedly intimate design, the house is essentially oriented towards the east-facing garden, where all the living spaces are located. This arrangement establishes a perfect connection with the outdoor space, in harmony with the leisure area that includes a barbecue and a swimming pool.

▏The Main Material Used

Regarding materials, the house was built using a combination of elements that provide solidity, coziness, durability, and a timeless design. The main material used is reinforced concrete, offering austere plasticity and ensuring its stability over time. The natural wood slats used both outside and inside create a cozy environment and integration with the surrounding landscape.

The constantly changing natural light, which penetrates through the glazed openings, the patio, and the skylights, continuously transforms the spaces and creates a mutable and dynamic atmosphere throughout the day and across the different seasons of the year, promoting tranquility and family refuge.

▏House’s Layout

As for the house’s layout, the interior spatial distribution is separated by function and floors. The social/service area on the ground floor consists of the garage and laundry room, separated by an exterior patio facing the entrance hall, a service bathroom, an open space with kitchen, dining room, and living room, and also an office. On the first floor, the private area consists of a living/reading area, bedrooms, all with private bathrooms, and the master suite with a walk-in closet. All bedrooms have direct access to an east-facing balcony overlooking the pool.

城市表面之下仍在運作的地層空間

石油基礎設施如何改寫地景

有些地景看起來像自然,其實不是。 它們只是長期被管線、道路與能源流動「壓」過之後,暫時穩定下來的結果。     當石油滲透進城市之中,它並不是抽象的能源,而是透過管線、港口、道路與運輸系統等基礎設施,實際改寫了地景本身的構成方式。這些結構不僅連結資源的開採與輸送,也在更大的尺度上重新組織了城市與土地之間的關係,使地景不再是自然生成的結果,而是被能源系統持續重塑的產物。 你很難在第一眼辨認出來,但一旦知道油從哪裡來、往哪裡去,那些線就會浮現。 管線與道路並非單純作為運輸與連結的工具,而是在地表之上與之下形成一種持續延展的結構網絡,這些線性系統沿著資源的流動方向被鋪設,逐步滲入城市邊界與自然地貌之中,使原本被視為穩定的地景開始出現偏移與重組,基礎設施不再只是附屬於建築或城市的存在,而是在更深層的運作之中,同時影響著建築材料的生成與使用方式。而是反過來主導了空間的展開方式,使土地的使用、分割與連結都圍繞著能源輸送的需求被重新安排,並在無形之中建立起一套優先於設計意圖的運作邏輯     在這樣的鋪設之下,城市不再依循原有的地理條件自然生長,而是被基礎設施的節點與通道所牽引,產生出新的聚集與擴張模式,工業區、物流節點與能源轉運設施逐漸成為空間組織的核心,建築與都市發展開始回應這些系統的位置與尺度,形成一種由流動驅動的空間分布,地景因此不再是被觀看或被規劃的對象,而是在能源與資源持續流動之中被動生成的結果,其形態的變化往往先於設計被確立,並在長時間的運作中逐漸固化為新的空間現實 當這些看似分散的鋪設與改寫彼此連接之後,地景便不再能以單一元素或局部關係來理解,而是必須被視為一整套持續運作的系統,其中每一段管線、每一條道路與每一個節點都參與在資源流動的過程之中,並共同維持著整體結構的穩定與擴展,在這樣的條件下,建築與城市不再是獨立的設計成果,而是被嵌入這套系統之中的一部分,其存在與形式皆受到能源邏輯的約束與塑造,而這種由基礎設施所主導的地景轉變,也使我們不得不重新理解空間本身的生成方式     管線不是線 管線從來不只是運輸。它們決定什麼地方可以被穿越、什麼地方必須被避開。農地會被切開,山體會被鑿穿,城市邊緣會因此長出奇怪的空白帶。 Pipelines are not connectors but territorial decisions. 這些決定通常不在地面上討論,但它們留下的痕跡卻長期存在。
