Spanish architect Jesús Perales created rooms that overlap in this house in Catalonia, to help the resident family spend more time together.
Located near the Baix Penedès vineyards, Casa Almudena is the home of property developers Almudena Álvarez Sánchez and Jorge Ybarra Corpas, and their two children.
西班牙建築師JesúsPerales在加泰羅尼亞的這所房子中創造了重疊的房間，以幫助居民家庭度過更多的時間。
Casa Almudena位於BaixPenedès葡萄園附近，是房地產開發商AlmudenaÁlvarezSánchez和Jorge Ybarra Corpas及其兩個孩子的家。
Perales designed the single-storey property with almost no corridors.
Rooms are simply organised in sequence, surrounding a diamond-shaped courtyard at the centre.
Perales設計了幾乎沒有走廊的單層物業。
房間簡單地按順序組織，圍繞著中心的菱形庭院。
The idea was that residents should always be aware of where each other are in the house, without necessarily being in the same room.
“They have many hobbies, such as music, arts and crafts and cooking,” said Perales. “They always look forward to spending time together as a family.”
想法是居民應該始終知道彼此在房子裡的位置，而不必一定在同一個房間裡。
佩拉雷斯說：“他們有很多愛好，例如音樂，工藝美術和烹飪。” “他們總是希望與家人在一起度過時光。”
“The objective of the property was clear: for all the members of this small family be able to share as much time together as possible, irrespective of where they are in the house,” he continued.
“At the same time, we wanted to maintain a certain degree of privacy with regards to the street and to their neighbours, and open the house up to a beautiful vineyard.”
他繼續說：“財產的目的很明確：這個小家庭的所有成員都可以盡可能多地共享時間，而不管他們在房子裡的位置。”
“與此同時，我們希望在街道及其鄰居方面保持一定程度的隱私，並向美麗的葡萄園開放房屋。”
The house was built from simple materials that are left exposed throughout.
Concrete slabs forms the floors and roof, while walls are made from red brick both inside and out.
房子是用簡單的材料建造的，這些材料始終裸露在外。
混凝土板形成地板和屋頂，而牆壁由內而外由紅磚製成。
Rooms vary in shape and proportion. The largest and tallest space is the family living room, which is oriented south so that it is the brightest room in the house.
房間的形狀和比例各不相同。 最大和最高的空間是家庭客廳，它朝南，因此它是房屋中最明亮的房間。
The roof slopes up to create a high ceiling in this room, although wooden beams span overhead in one area, indicating the location of a possible future mezzanine.
儘管木樑在一個區域上方架空，但屋頂傾斜向上以在該房間中形成高高的天花板，表明了將來可能夾層的位置。
This room overlaps with the kitchen and dining room, a large space that is folded in two halves so that it wraps tightly around the courtyard.
Both sides feature floor-to-ceiling glazing, so are visually connected at all times.
這個房間與廚房和飯廳重疊，這是一個大空間，被分成兩半，從而緊密地包裹在庭院中。
兩側均採用落地玻璃，因此始終保持視覺連接。
“It wouldn’t matter if you were preparing dinner while the children were doing their homework,” said Perales.
“You always have the feeling that the rest of the family are with you.”
佩拉雷斯說：“孩子們在做功課的時候準備晚飯沒關係。”
“您總是覺得家人與家人在一起。”
The only part of the house that functions like a corridor is the space that connects the three bedrooms. This area features a large in-built desk facing a window to the courtyard, so it doubles as a sizeable study.
Many of the rooms feature large windows or glass doors, so residents can enjoy views of the vineyard landscape wherever they are in the house.
房子唯一起到走廊作用的部分是連接三間臥室的空間。 該區域設有面向庭院窗戶的大型內置書桌，因此可作為書房翻倍。
許多房間設有大窗戶或玻璃門，因此無論房屋在何處，居民都可以欣賞到葡萄園景觀。
The house is sparsely furnished with modest but functional pieces. For instance, the television stand in the living room is made from painted bricks, while the dining table is made from reclaimed wood.
Heating is installed beneath the polished concrete floor, to ensure that every space feels cosy.
房屋稀疏，擺放著適度但實用的家具。 例如，客廳的電視櫃是用彩繪磚製成的，而餐桌是用再生木材製成的。
加熱裝置安裝在拋光的水泥地板下，以確保每個空間都舒適。
Other recently completed houses in Spain include a solid stone house in Cáceres and a rammed-earth house, also in Catalonia.
西班牙最近完成的其他房屋包括卡塞雷斯的堅固石屋和加泰羅尼亞的夯土房屋。
