智利天窗馬廄 / Matias Zegers Architects
Elongated skylight illuminates stables in Chile by Matias Zegers Architects
這座位於智利首都聖地亞哥附近的馬廄有著屋頂天窗，這樣，陽光就可以穿過屋頂照射到支撐其彎曲天花板的桁架上。
該項目位於安第斯山脈山麓，這座馬廄由聖地亞哥建築師Matias Zegers操刀設計，佔地三公頃。
A skylight that runs along the ridge of this stables near the Chilean capital of Santiago allows daylight to flood onto laminated-timber trusses that support its curved ceiling.
Santiago-based architect Matias Zegers designed the stables for an equestrian centre occupying a three-hectare compound in the foothills of the Andes mountains.
Zegers是Matias Zegers建築事務所的創始人，他從小就喜歡騎馬，因此立志要設計一座條件優越的馬廄，為馬的健康提供保障。
這座馬廄有著簡單的山牆形式，其中可容納14匹馬，它靠近訓練場地，周圍是一片土生土長的荊棘樹林。
Zegers, who founded Matias Zegers Architects, has been riding horses since early childhood and wanted to create a stables that provides the best possible conditions for the horses' wellbeing.
The simple, gabled structure can accommodate 14 showjumping horses and is positioned close to a training arena on a patch of ground surrounded by native quillayes trees.
細長的天窗好似屋頂燈，在建築的兩端延伸，它為室內工作的飼養人員提供了足夠的自然光，極大減少了人工照明的使用。
位於馬廄盡頭的大門比較狹窄，那裡安置著隔間，確保馬匹保持平靜。而屋頂的天窗為建築內部的淋浴房和馬鞍房帶來充足的自然光線。
The building's key feature is the slender roof light, which runs from one end to the other and provides enough natural light for the grooms to work indoors throughout the year with minimal artificial light.
The opening is narrowest at its ends where the stalls are situated to ensure a calm and restful ambiance for the horses. It widens towards the centre to provide adequate illumination to the showers and saddle rooms positioned in this portion of the building.
天窗兩邊是彎曲的木質天花板，光線瀰漫在其中，天窗使用了雙層淺灰色玻璃，形成更加均勻的光線質量。
建築師希望這座建築不受外界干擾。簡單的山牆形式結構讓人聯想起當地的農業建築，例如附近的訓練場和設備倉庫。
The timber-lined ceilings on either side of the skylight are curved to allow the light to diffuse gently over their surfaces. A double layer of opal glass was used for the skylight to create a more even quality of light.
The stables is designed to fit unobtrusively into its setting. Its simple gabled form recalls vernacular agricultural buildings, such as neighbouring structures including a covered training ring and an equipment barn.
Zegers解釋說：“從遠處看，建築的形狀和材質與周圍環境相融合，好像從自然中生長出來一般，似乎能夠從視野和記憶中消失。”
外表面覆蓋著深色的木材，幫助馬廄與周圍的自然環境融為一體。深色的正面覆蓋著金屬屋頂磚，這些瓷磚則有著柔和、彎曲和傾斜的表面。
"When seen from a distance, both [the building's] shape and texture makes it disappear not only to the eye but also to the memory," Zegers explains, "fading away along with the hundred similar stables we might have seen."
Exterior surfaces clad in dark-stained wood help the stables blend in with its natural surroundings. The dark facades are complemented by metallic roof tiles that cover the gently bowed and angled surface.
Zegers補充說：“金屬瓷磚的外層是一種紡織品，能夠輕易地形成幾何形態，當陽光灑在屋頂上，緞青色的表面就會顯示不同的色調。”
"The outer layer of metallic tiles settles as a textile, negotiating with this geometry with no trouble," Zegers added. "Daylight reflects off this skin, displaying different hues on its satin-bronze colour."
兩端和立面中心的開口直通向建築內部，這種過渡強調了黑色正立面和暖色木材內部之間的對比。
這座建築由疊層木材建造。其結構和牆壁在智利Los ángeles的一個工廠預製，然後在現場組裝起來，僅僅花費45天。
Openings at both of the gabled ends and at the centre of one elevation lead straight into the building. This transition is accentuated by the contrast between the dark facades and warm wood interior.
The building was constructed using laminated timber. The structure and walls were prefabricated in a factory in the Chilean city of Los ángeles and assembled on site in just 45 days.
其他類型項目還有位於阿根廷的畜舍，建築有著混凝土樓梯和草皮屋頂，另外還有一座位於墨西哥的火山岩建築。
