Six Houses and a Garden

Two buildings with clashing geometries gain architectural unity in an urban residential conversion
다양한 기하 형태 속 통일감을 살린 포르투갈 다가구 주택

Fala Atelier | 빠라 아뜰리에

Two buildings with a similar appearance, but with different geometries, define this project: one very long and another very short, arranged round a central garden. Fala atelier converted the two buildings into six domestic residences – four of which are identical – around the common garden, hidden inside a city block. The fragmented reality is given a sense of architectural unity.

포르투갈 제2의 도시라 불리는 포르투는 자기 나라만의 소박한 도시 풍경을 가졌다. 아기자기한 도시 블럭 안에 정원을 둘러싼 두 채의 집이 있다. 둘은 겉보기엔 비슷하나, 하나는 길고 하나는 짧으며 기하학적 형태가 다르다. 건축가는 두 건물을 여섯 가구가 사는 주택으로 개조했다. 긴 건물에 들어선 네 가구는 구조가 똑같다.

Project: Six Houses and a Garden / Location: Porto, Portugal / Architect: Fala Atelier / Project team: Filipe Magalhães, Ana Luisa Soares, Ahmed Belkhodja, Rute Peixoto, Lera Samovich, Paulo Sousa / Landscape architect: Pomo / surface area: 190m2 / Contractor: Civiflanco Lda / Completion: 2019 / Photograph: Ricardo Loureiro

The composition of each inner space combines orthogonal, diagonal and curved lines. The slightly distorted perimeter of the rooms sets the frames; the main spaces come from a subtraction of conflicting surfaces that comprise secondary programs. The thin metal poles bring in vertical tension while the round openings connect uneven programs. Acting within a very small volume, this combination of ambivalent geometries achieves unconventionally-shaped living rooms.
The materiality of the awkward interiors follows their complexity. Walls are deliberately left white, the horizontal slabs are abrupt concrete, the floors are made of polished blue marble and the tilted ceiling is painted in pink. Wooden doors, with exaggerated handles and hints of pink marble continue this game of surface experimentation.

외관의 특징은 세로 선이다. 가느다란 금속 기둥, 초록색 줄무늬 문, 지붕 위로 솟은 검은색 상자 모양의 천창은 서로 겹쳐지며 리듬을 형성한다. 입면은 통일되어 밖에서 봤을 때 각 집이 어떻게 나뉘는지 모르게 한다.
지붕은 두 겹으로, 금속판 밑에 분홍색 물결 모양 판자를 덧대 얇은 면을 강조했다.

내부는 약간 찌그러진 사각형 틀 안에 직각, 대각선, 곡선이 뒤섞인 모습이다. 기하 조합이 만들어낸 공간은 보조 기능을 하고, 이를 제외한 나머지는 주요 실로 이용함으로써, 좁은 면적 속 관습에서 벗어난 거실이 탄생했다.
1층부터 천장까지 이어진 기둥은 수직적 긴장감을 조성하고, 원형 창은 일관성 없는 형태를 하나로 연결한다.

On the outside, the houses are defined by a continuous colonnade framing a collective garden, whereby it becomes impossible to determine where each house begins or ends. The façade is an overlap of several rows, rhythmically arranged: thin metal columns, striped blue doors and black, boxy skylights. The roof is comprised of two layers: a pink wavy plane is attached below the metal sheets, emphasizing the thinness of the surface. Around the building is the idyllic urban scenario of Porto, forming a backdrop to this honest and radical architectural exercise.

실내에 다양한 형태가 돋보이는 만큼, 재료도 요소마다 다르게 썼다. 벽은 일부러 흰색으로 남겨둔 채 1층 천장은 눈에 띄는 콘크리트로, 비스듬한 2층 천장은 분홍색으로 마감했고, 바닥엔 광택 낸 파란색 대리석을, 계단엔 분홍색 대리석을 깔고, 문은 목재를 사용했다.
