Amankay住宅位于墨西哥，由 Di Frenna Arquitectos（迪·弗雷纳建筑事务所）设计，其空间叙事以一种渐进的方式展开。通往住宅的动线从一段穿行于茂密植被间的石阶开始，营造出缓慢、沉静的到达节奏。入口右侧，一株高大繁茂的树木形成视觉焦点；另一侧，竖直体量如同回应般伫立，二者在静默中保持平衡。建筑虽形态明确，却借助光影与绿意，呈现出更为柔和的姿态。

The Amankay residence is located in Mexico and was designed by Di Frenna Arquitectos. Its spatial narrative unfolds in a progressive manner. The route leading to the residence begins with a stone staircase that winds through the thick vegetation, creating a slow and serene rhythm of arrival. On the right side of the entrance, a tall and lush tree forms the visual focus. On the other side, the vertical volume stands as if responding, and the two maintain balance in silence. Although the building has a clear form, it presents a more gentle posture through the use of light and shadow and greenery.

从外观上看，住宅呈现出横向延展的体量序列。一条裸露混凝土带贯穿整座立面，并与屋面板共同框定上层空间，犹如置于两片水平平面之间。混凝土带并非单纯的结构构件，其内部嵌入深植槽，沿立面延伸，与建筑几何线条呼应的植被仿佛回应着建筑“归还”所占据的土地。这一设计手法稳健而不失灵动。

From the outside, the residence presents a sequence of volumes that extend horizontally. A exposed concrete strip runs through the entire facade and, together with the roof panel, delineates the upper space, as if placed between two horizontal planes. The concrete strip is not merely a structural component. Deep planting grooves are embedded inside and extend along the facade. The vegetation that echoes the geometric lines of the building seems to respond to the buildings return of the land it occupies. This design approach is steady yet dynamic.

室内的第一处停顿来自楼梯——钢与木材构成的结构悬浮于空间之中，带有雕塑般的存在感。楼梯下方散铺的卵石延续了室外的语境；双层通高的落地窗框景如画，使枝叶的影像在反射中渗入室内。日光在一日之间流转，投射出不规则的阴影，显露出墙面的肌理，并将叶片的绿色投映在粗粝的灰色表面上。

The first pause in the interior comes from the staircase - a structure made of steel and wood suspended in the space, with a sculptural presence. The pebbles scattered beneath the staircase continue the outdoor context. The double-height floor-to-ceiling window frames offer a picturesque view, allowing the images of branches and leaves to seep into the interior through reflection. Sunlight flows through the day, casting irregular shadows, revealing the texture of the wall and casting the green of the leaves onto the rough grey surface.

整体材质语言强调克制与统一：清水混凝土、石材与钢材构筑了结构与氛围，木材则在门、天花与家具中引入温润气息，而不破坏中性单色的基调。这种处理让变化之物——植物、光影与空气流动——在空间中占据主角。

The overall material language emphasizes restraint and unity: exposed concrete, stone and steel construct the structure and atmosphere, while wood introduces a warm touch into the doors, ceilings and furniture without disrupting the neutral monochromatic tone. This treatment allows the changing elements - plants, light and shadow, and air flow - to take center stage in the space.

建筑后方的庭院成为社交空间的核心。厨房与露台可完全向外敞开，仅数级台阶便使露台获得更亲密的尺度感而不显封闭。植被环绕取代了实体围墙，形成“可见而不被见”的天然屏障。

The courtyard at the back of the building becomes the core of the social space. The kitchen and the terrace can be fully opened outward. Just a few steps can give the terrace a more intimate sense of scale without making it seem closed. Vegetation has replaced the physical walls, forming a natural barrier that is visible but not visible.

上层为私密的卧室区域，绿色依然无处不在——每一扇窗与露台都引入周围的自然景象。房间直通庭院或阳台，使居住者与环境的联系得以延续。自然总能找到进入的路径，而建筑对此并不抗拒。

Amankay住宅以明确的体量感回应场地条件，在坚实的姿态中展开，与环境进行直接而清晰的对话。

The upper floor is a private bedroom area, and greenery is still everywhere - every window and terrace brings in the surrounding natural scenery. The room leads directly to the courtyard or balcony, allowing the connection between the resident and the environment to continue. Nature always finds a way in, and architecture does not resist this. The Amankay residence responds to the site conditions with a clear sense of volume, unfolding in a solid posture and engaging in a direct and clear dialogue with the environment.
