架构师提供的文本描述。在萨格托扩建区为163个住宅和商店设计的项目。该地区的密度较低，建筑高度仅限于3层，除了通过帕伦西亚河上的一座人行天桥连接到历史城市中心的两个地点外。我们必须克服的主要问题是高密度，以及开发商所要求的大量住房，这不可避免地需要一个足够大的周长，以便让自然光线进入每一个房间。

Text description provided by the architects. A project for 163 dwellings and shops in the expansion area of Sagunto. The area has a low density and building heights are limited to 3 levels, except for two sites that make up the connection to the historical city center through a pedestrian bridge over Palencia river. The main problem we had to overcome was high density, and the large number of homes requested by the developer, which inevitably requires a perimeter large enough to allow natural light into every room.

由于提供商业区和设计一个有游泳池的大公共区域也很重要，我们决定建造三个街区，一个纵向阻挡北风和风向，两个部分高耸的塔楼有更多的关系空间。作为围护的主要材料，我们选择了两种颜色的外露砖，对应于不同的体积，较轻的在静态区域和较暗的在更动态的区域。

As it was also important to supply a commercial area and design a large public area with a pool, we decided to create three blocks, one longitudinal to block off the north and the prevailing winds, and two partially elevated towers to have more relationship space. As a main material for enclosures we chose exposed brick in two colors, corresponding to different volumes, the lighter one in static areas and the darker one in the more dynamic areas.

由于住房计划是多种多样的；两居室、三居室和四个卧室的公寓，再加上复式住宅，需要一系列正面的开口，我们决定把这种变化划分为小面积，加上梯田，在开口的范围上加上不同的颜色，从远处看，形成了一个补偿的谜题。整个建筑群作为入口建筑的现实允许了这一决定，这在另一个城市中是不可想象的。

As the housing program was quite varied; two, three and four bedroom apartments plus duplex homes, needing openings on a range of facades, we decided to group this variation in small areas, with terraces, where the variety of colors chosen is imposed on the range of the openings, creating a compensated puzzle in the view from afar. The reality of the whole complex as entrance building allowed this decision, unthinkable in another urban context.
