Alferez住宅的概念来源于森林小屋的想法，以及它在森林中间充当保护避难所的浪漫感觉。该项目回应了森林中孤立房屋的想法，同时也没有忽视对强烈安全感的需求；一个像金库一样的房子，由混凝土制成，保护和照顾它的居民。其结果是语言的混合，一方面是小木屋作为项目的浪漫部分，另一方面是堡垒作为项目的野蛮保护部分。底层几乎是盲目的，同时窗户被放置在非常高的位置，人们从外面无法到达，从内部可以看到天空和松树。

The origin of the concept of Alferez house comes from the idea of a cabin in the wood and its romantic felling of a protective shelter in the middle of the forest. The project responds to the idea of an isolated house in the forest, without ever losing sight on the need for a strong feeling of security ; a house like a vault, made of concrete that protects and cares for its inhabitants.The result is a mix of languages, on one hand the cabin as the romantic part of the project and the other hand the fortress as the brutalist protective part of the project .The ground floor is almost blind , meanwhile the windows are placed on a very high level where you can’t reach them from the outside, opening views toward the sky and the pine trees on the inside.

结构项目有一个非常紧凑的占地面积，以避免由于土地的地形而导致复杂和昂贵的地基，其想法是增加房子的高度，在房子的顶部创建第二个底层，即树木中间的悬浮屋顶露台。屋顶是上午的区域，而自然底层是下午的区域。房子就像一个不稳定的盒子掉在土地的自然坡度上，南角是悬臂式的，而北角则是下沉式的。该项目重新创造了一个悬挂在土地自然地形之上小屋的感觉。该结构表达了这一矛盾，在小木屋的轻盈感与混凝土的重量和房屋的堡垒个性之间产生了一种独特的对比。

The structural project has a very compact footprint, in order to avoid a complex and expensive foundation due to the topography of the land, with the idea to grow the height of the house to create a  second ground floor on top of the house, the suspended rooftop terrace in the middle of the trees. The rooftop is the morning area , meanwhile the natural ground floor is the afternoon area .The house seems like dropped as un unstable box on top of the natural slope of the land, cantilevered on its south corner, and sunken on the opposite north corner. The project recreates the feeling of a cabin suspended on top of the natural topography of its land. The structure expresses this contradiction , generating a singular contrast between the feeling of lightness of a cabin, balanced by the weight of the concrete and the fortress personality of the house.

按照其9X9米的紧凑占地面积的逻辑，该项目旨在垂直生长，而不是水平生长，以使人们能够触摸到高大的松树的树枝。房子的配置已经被开发成围绕双倍高度的半层，使房子在内部有大教堂的感觉和比例，光线从顶部进入各处通过那些非常高的窗户和天花板上的天窗。 然后，双重高度使光线扩散到整个内部空间，弥补了底层窗户的损失。

Following the logic of its compact footprint of 9 X 9 meters ,  the purpose of the project has been to grow vertically, instead of horizontally, to allow people to touch the branches of the tall pine trees.The configuration of the house has been developed in half levels organized around a double height, giving the house this cathedral feeling and proportion on the inside, with light entering everywhere from the top, through those very high windows and skylights in the ceiling.Then the double height diffuses the light through the entire inner space and compensate the loss of windows on the ground floor.
