共生建筑设计：规划并设计了环绕石泉山的相关提升设施及景点之后，回到入口处，想给石泉山石泉村景区设计一个综合服务中心。石泉村是一个传统村落，在连南县城标志性的石泉山（又称“猫公山”）之后，自然的状态，与城区相距0公里。我们非常珍惜这种自然的状态。

Farmerson Architects: Upon finishing the plan and design work for improvement facilities and tourist attractions of Shiquan Mountain, we intend to design an integrated service center for the Shiquan Village Scenic Area of Shiquan Mountain at the entrance. Situated behind the iconic Shiquan Mountain (also known as “Maogong Mountain”) in Liannan County and 0km from the downtown, Shiquan Village is a traditional village that keeps its natural state. This natural state is what we value highly.

我们把建设场地选在入口广场左侧，紧邻停车场，靠着石泉山环形步道的一边，另一边是几户线性排开的民宅。场地中有几棵树围绕空出一块较为完整的地方，我们把建筑定在了这里。

The construction site is envisaged to stand on the left of the entrance plaza and adjoin the car park, approaching the Shiquan Mountain circle walk and facing linearly spaced homes. Within the site is a relatively intact place surrounded by a few trees. We decide to place the building right here.

▽融入山及村落中的建筑 Architecture integrated into mountains and villages

▽游客中心位于山下广场边 The tourist center is located beside the square at the foot of the mountain

▽包围着一棵树又被树包围的建筑The building surrounded by a tree and surrounded by trees

▽在广场一侧的游客中心 The tourist center on the side of the square

▽伸向广场的建筑入口 The entrance extending to the square

刚开始，设计师是想把这个建筑“消失”掉。因此，房子是一个玻璃盒界面加上屋顶的状态。可能有的储藏和设备空间，用房中房的办法，在玻璃盒里面靠边设置了一个砖盒子，整个建筑是较细的钢柱支撑起来的，干净而纯粹。

Guided by the original intention of making the building “invisible”, the building is supposed to adopt a covered glass box interface and the storage and equipment space is designed by the box in box method as a sidelined brick box in the glass box. The entire building supported by thin steel columns thus gives a clean and pure sense.

▽游客中心面向自然及广场通透 The tourist center is transparent to the nature and the square

后来，察觉周边的民居和附近的山体，景观都还很好，希望把平屋顶利用起来，让人能登高望远、休闲观景。

Finding that the surrounding homes and nearby mountain have good views afterwards, we expect to offer a place for people to look far and relax on the flat roof.

楼梯的元素开始出现。

设计师不希望楼梯跑的锯齿形形状在这个横平竖直的建筑外形里出现，就给楼梯跑包了一个方盒子。发现旁边有棵现状树，就把上下两跑楼梯及其盒子分开，避开树木，放置在两侧，连起之间的休息平台，把树木半包围在里面。这样，人往上爬楼梯的时候，是随着步级围树而上的，从树根部到树冠，立体地转一圈，犹如藏民转经一样，在这里人们是在“转树”：人在运动过程中似乎与树产生了某种微妙的关系。而一棵树形成的小院子，对于室内室外的空间渗透与光影体验等丰富性，都产生了意想不到的生动。

The element of stair comes into our head.

The designer encapsulates the stair in a square box so that the jagged stair is not seen in this horizontal and vertical building. When we later notice an existing tree next to the stair, we separate the upper and lower stairs and their boxes, place them on either side of the tree, and connect the resting platform, thus the tree is semi-enclosed. In this way, climbing stairs is like moving around tree from the root to the crown. It is same with the Tibetans’ turning scripture; we are “turning tree” here: one seems to have a subtle relationship with the tree while moving. The small courtyard formed by a tree has generated an unexpectedly vivid effect on enriching the interior and exterior space penetration and light & shadow experience.

▽两跑楼梯形成的盒子围树而建 The box formed by two stairs is built around the tree

▽楼梯围合而形成的小院子 A small courtyard surrounded by stairs

▽一棵树的天空 The sky of a tree

这棵树与这个小房子从此达成了共生。

The tree and the small house have since formed a symbiotic relationship.

▽混凝土及玻璃砖结合建造的楼梯 Staircase constructed by combination of concrete and glass brick

从经济、适用和坚固等角度出发，设计师希望在乡村里的建设是简单的、直接的。因此，建筑材料的钢、玻璃与清水砖墙，在当下都是顺势而为。楼梯使用的是清水混凝土建造，中间夹杂了一些线性的玻璃砖。最终的建成，清水混凝土呈现了极度的不精确和粗糙特点，倒也反映了乡村建设的当下状态。

For the purpose of cost effectiveness, applicability and robustness, the designer wants to make the rural construction simple and straightforward. Steel, glass and plain brick wall are thus the best choice at the moment. The stair is constructed by fair-faced concrete and some linear glass bricks. Upon completion, the extremely imprecise and rough fair-faced concrete properly mirrors the current state of rural construction.

▽粗糙清水混凝土与显得精致的玻璃砖 Rough fair-faced concrete and delicate glass bricks

而设计师更为关注的，是如何“诗意地栖居”。

基于这些粗糙的建造实际上基本完成了设计设想中对树、对景、对人活动的关怀与敬意，因此，设计师也就与那些建造中的粗糙产生了谅解。

Nevertheless, the designer is more concerned with “poetic dwelling”.

In effect, the roughness-based construction shows the care and respect for the trees, the landscape and the human activities envisaged in the design, thus the designer and the roughness in construction have come to accommodation.

构思这个小建筑的时候，正值新冠疫情爆发后的2020年4月。设计师房木生从广东现场回到北京，莫名被自隔离的社区管理部门强迫去酒店隔离。房木生根据现场照片在Ipad上绘制草图，同时在隔离酒店内做了一系列“抗役名画Cosplay挑战”的行为艺术，引发了朋友圈的围观。这是一个在疫情中构思建造的小建筑，它的通透、开放、简洁，以及对自然树木的热爱共生状态，与疫情中我们的被隔离、封闭、复杂和人与人之间紧张的接触关系形成了强烈对比。三年的“抗役斗争”终于结束了，谨以这个小建筑的发表，致敬逝去的三年时间，迎接美好的未来。

The building was conceived in April 2020, just after the outbreak of COVID-19. When returning Beijing from the construction site in Guangdong, the designer Fang Musheng was inexplicably forced into hotel quarantine by the community management department, where he sketched on Ipad based on the site photos and did a series of performance art concerning “anti-pandemic painting cosplay challenges” which attracted a crowd of onlookers on WeChat. This building is conceived in the midst of the pandemic. Its transparency, openness, simplicity, as well as love and symbiosis for natural trees contrast sharply with the isolation, confinement, complexity and interpersonal tension during the pandemic. The three-year “anti-pandemic war” is finally at an end. With the publication of this building, we pay tribute to the three years that have passed and greet the bright future.
