架构师提供的文本描述。厄瓜多尔放弃传统建筑技术和使用工业化的低性能材料在短短几十年内就取代了厄瓜多尔几百年来积累和发展的建筑知识。完全适应当地气候、建设性、经济和社会现实的模式已被许多情况下无法居住并具有很高生态足迹的模型所取代。

Text description provided by the architects. The abandonment of traditional construction techniques in Ecuador and the use of industrialized low-performance materials have replaced in just a few decades the building knowledge accumulated and evolved over centuries in Ecuador. Models perfectly adapted to the climatic, constructive, economic and social reality of the locations have been replaced by models that are uninhabitable in many cases and have a very high ecological footprint.

该项目的目的是通过使用当地来源的天然材料和大幅度减少能源需求，建造一个生态足迹最小的原型房屋；通过在整个外围护层使用自然隔热材料和制定适应赤道纬度的战略，通过温室效应捕获太阳能，从而实现能源效率。

This project aims to build a prototype house with minimal ecological footprint through the use of locally sourced natural materials and the drastic reduction in energy demand; energy efficiency is achieved by using natural thermal insulation throughout the external envelope and by developing strategies adapted to equatorial latitudes for solar energy capture through greenhouse effect.

虽然建筑系统重量轻，但可以通过封装浮石来为房屋提供足够的隔热和热惯性，尽管基多昼夜气候变化很大，但浮石储存了温室效应所捕获的能量，并稳定了室内温度。

Although built with a lightweight construction system it is possible to provide the house with sufficient thermal insulation and thermal inertia by encapsulating pumice stone, which stores the energy captured through greenhouse effect and stabilizes the inside temperature in spite of the high day/night climatic variability in Quito.

该建筑已设计拆除，以便能够在厄瓜多尔不同气候区域进行运输、监测或展示，修改其设备和配置，以便在任何气候条件下获得最大的能源效率，并为今后在多个地点进行研究提供有用的数据。在其使用寿命之后，可重复使用其部件或回收利用。

The building has been designed to be dismantled, so that it can be transported, monitored or exhibited in different climatic regions of Ecuador, modifying its equipment and configuration in order to obtain maximum energy efficiency in any climate and providing useful data for future research in multiple locations. After its useful life reusing of its parts or recycling will be possible.

该地基由圆形混凝土基础和钢柱组成，结构采用桉树木材，强度高、成本低、生长快，形成了水平横梁和斜横梁加固的框架，允许使用小的切割尺寸和最大限度地使用木材。木梁覆盖在顶部和下面的15毫米胶合板，形成了一种梁板。

The foundation is made of cyclopean concrete footings and steel columns.The structure has been made of eucalyptus wood, because of its high strength, low cost and fast growth, forming frames reinforced by horizontal and diagonal crossbeams to allow the use of small cutting dimensions and the maximumuse of the timber. The wood beams are covered on top and underneath by 15mm plywood panels, forming a kind of beam board.

框架和板是填充浮石，这是由胶合板围封后，管道安装。通风外墙采用厄瓜多尔劳雷尔木建造，植被屋顶由双层沥青防水双层土工织物之间的绝缘排水浮石层组成。一层黑土和腐殖质覆盖着屋顶材料。

The frames and slabs are filled with pumice stone which is enclosed by plywood sheets after pipework has been installed. The ventilated exterior wall is built of Ecuador Laurel wood and the vegetation roof covering comprises a layer of insulating and draining pumice stone between two layers of geotextile on double asphalt waterproofing. A layer of black soil and humus covers the roofing materials.

该项目包括安装低成本、开放源码的监测系统，这些系统在任何时候(20-21°C)的舒适参数范围内都有稳定的温度，而外部温度从12℃到20℃不等，周围的建筑物处于过热状态或需要常规供暖系统。

The project includes the installation of low cost, open-source monitoring systems, which have registered steady temperatures within comfort parameters at all times (20-21°C) while outside temperatures range from 12 to 20º C and surrounding buildings suffer from overheating or require conventional heating systems.
