WALLMAKERS：Chuzhi是一个有助于了解在通常被认为“不适合”建设的地方如何进行建造的项目。在风景如画的Shoolagiri地区有一个名为Sanctity Ferme的围合式社区，由于场地上陡峭的岩石地形、巨大的树木和茂密的植被在社区外围形成了许多难以利用的边界空间，一定程度上减少了可建造的面积，使得人们不愿意在此建造房屋。

WALLMAKERS：Chuzhi is a project that helps to understand what can be built in odd sites that are generally deemed ‘unsuitable’ for construction. Situated in a gated community called Sanctity Ferme in a picturesque location called Shoolagiri, the owner was in a fix as there were unwanted obscure plots at the periphery of the community characterized by steep rocky topography , huge trees and thick vegetation making people reluctant to make homes there as the buildable area seemed less.

如今，人们痴迷于从家中获得美丽的风景，而不关心其住所最终如何在原始的美丽风景中成为了不自然的障碍。因而设计团队提出“伪装建筑”的概念，即希望建筑结构保持隐匿性，并与现有的地形完美融合，似乎正合适。

In current times when people are obsessed with achieving beautiful scenic views from their homes and least concerned with how their houses end up looking like unnatural eyesores in virgin beautiful landscapes, our concept of Camouflage architecture, where we want the buildings to stay hidden and merge seamlessly with the existing topography seems apt.

“Chuzhi”一词在马拉雅拉姆语中为“旋涡”之意，设计团队利用4000个废弃的塑料瓶以及预制碎石和渣土浇筑的复合横梁，围绕现场的三棵大罗望子树构建了一个形似旋涡的屋顶结构。该设计想要建造一个像从岩床中长出的地下住宅，其结构围绕树木形成多个旋涡形状，为下方的居民创造了一个安全的私人空间，同时也为上方的大树周围留出空间，确保茂密的植被和生态系统继续不受干扰地生长。

Chuzhi as the meaning suggests in Malayalam, ”whirlpool” are swirls of precast poured debris earth composite bottle beams, fashioned from 4000 discarded plastic bottles designed around the three large Tamarind trees on site. The idea was to make a subterranean home that would originate from the rock bed, forming multiple whirls around the tree and adjoining to create a secure private space below for the residents and a space around the trees above that ensures that the thick vegetation and ecosystem continues to thrive undisturbed.

建筑的漩涡结构从墙壁开始，一路盘旋而上形成屋顶。嵌入玻璃的屋顶分布在三棵树之间，给人一种住在树冠之下的体验。虽然这座住宅没有传统意义上的立面和边界，但却通过空间的开合恰当地将公共区域与私人区域区分开来，屋顶也兼作环绕树木的座位区。其设计旨在让住宅上方的树木和周围环境的自然生态系统得以保留，同时确保居住的舒适度。

The swirls of Chuzhi start as walls and spirals all the way up to form the roof. Perched in between the three trees, the house has been designed with a glass roof to give you the feeling of living underneath the canopy of trees. Although the house has no elevation, it properly defines the public space from the private space with the roof doubling up as a seating area around the tree. The idea was to allow the natural ecosystem of trees and the surroundings to be retained as it is above the house, without compromising on the comfort of the inhabitants.

这座两居室的住宅设计采用开放式的布局和简约的内部装饰，其地板由回收木材拼凑而成。但令人惊奇的是，这座建筑成功将自身隐藏在景观之中，如同在炎热天气里蜷缩在岩石下的一条巨蛇。

Chuzhi is a two-bedroom residence designed with an open layout and minimalistic interiors and has floors that have been made of reclaimed wood that has been pieced together. But the surprising fact is that the building manages to tuck itself away into the landscape like a snake curling up under a rock on a hot day.

“ 设计巧妙地将建筑结构融入自然环境之中，在不破坏生态环境的同时使被认为‘不合适’的空间重获活力。”
