设计特色：

项目 – 位于智利庞基普利的PYR住宅，是一座建筑杰作，通过创新设计和诗意想象，巧妙应对险峻地形。由著名建筑师卡苏·泽格斯（Cazú Zegers）设计，这座非凡住宅将地形限制转化为最引人注目的设计特色，在崎岖的自然环境中创造出一个富有雕塑感的建筑干预。

房屋的概念源于黄铁矿——"家的石头"——这一灵感既是隐喻，也是结构象征。一个以黄铁矿立方晶体结构为蓝本的几何楼梯，垂直连接了地产的不同高度，从悬崖顶到湖边，成为阐释项目空间复杂性的建筑脊梁。

泽格斯巧妙应对了场地的太阳方位和40英尺悬崖，通过一个精巧的三层体量，看似从岩石地形中有机生长。使用金属、木材和选择性混凝土这一精细的材料调色板构建的轻质建筑体量，在建筑形态与景观之间创造了动态相互作用。

结构智慧与诗意表达在这个项目中交汇，每一层都根据其特定的地形条件做出独特响应。其结果是一种超越传统建筑边界的住宅设计，将地理挑战转化为空间创新和感官体验的机遇。

PYR住宅是泽格斯建筑理念的见证——大胆重新想象建筑环境如何不仅仅占据，更要真正栖居于具有挑战性的景观中。

团队 – 1990年成立的卡苏·泽格斯建筑工作室已成为当代建筑实践中变革性力量，以其对与景观和文化背景深入对话的建筑的卓越承诺而著称。由瓦尔帕莱索天主教大学（PUCV）培养的建筑师卡苏·泽格斯领导的工作室，已发展出一种独特的建筑语言，将建筑形态与智利和拉丁美洲领土无缝融合。

工作室的设计理念超越传统建筑方法，专注于"低技术"方法，优先考虑对领土最小干预和对自然环境的深刻尊重。泽格斯的作品以其地理诗学方法为特征，探索从对地方、本地材料（尤其是木材）和原住民文化智慧的细致理解中产生的建筑解决方案。

在国际上备受肯定，泽格斯获得了包括凡尔赛大奖和国家地理独特旅舍世界奖在内的殊荣。她的实践曾入选ELLE Decor建筑A-List，并被福布斯杂志誉为突破性建筑事务所。

目前由泽格斯领导，工作室继续推动建筑边界，强调可持续设计、族裔建筑学，以及尊重生态和文化生态系统的整体地域介入方法。

Feature：

Project - Perched dramatically on the edge of a precipitous landscape in Panguipulli, Chile, the PYR House emerges as a architectural marvel that seamlessly negotiates challenging terrain through innovative design and poetic imagination. Conceived by renowned architect Cazú Zegers, this extraordinary residence transforms topographical constraints into its most compelling design feature, creating a sculptural intervention that dialogues intimately with its rugged natural context.

The house's conceptual genesis lies in pyrite—the "stone of home"—which becomes both metaphorical inspiration and structural metaphor. A central geometric staircase, engineered with the cubic crystalline structure of pyrite, vertically connects the property's disparate elevations, from cliff top to lakeside, becoming the architectural spine that articulates the project's spatial complexity.

Zegers masterfully addresses the site's challenging solar orientation and forty-foot cliff through a sophisticated three-story volume that appears to emerge organically from the rocky terrain. The lightweight architectural volumes, constructed using a nuanced material palette of metal, wood, and selective concrete, create a dynamic interplay between built form and landscape.

Structural ingenuity meets poetic expression in this project, where each floor responds uniquely to its specific land condition. The result is a residential design that transcends conventional architectural boundaries, transforming geographical challenges into opportunities for spatial innovation and sensory experience.

The PYR House stands as a testament to Zegers' architectural philosophy—a bold reimagining of how built environments can not just occupy, but truly inhabit challenging landscapes.

Design Team - Founded in 1990, Cazú Zegers Architecture Studio has emerged as a transformative force in contemporary architectural practice, distinguished by its profound commitment to creating architecture that intimately dialogues with landscape and cultural context. Led by Cazú Zegers, an architect trained at the Pontifical Catholic University of Valparaíso (PUCV), the studio has developed a unique architectural language that seamlessly integrates built form with the Chilean and Latin American territories.

The studio's design philosophy transcends conventional architectural approaches, focusing on a "Low Tech" methodology that prioritizes minimal territorial intervention and a deep respect for natural environments. Zegers' work is characterized by its geopoetic approach, exploring architectural solutions that emerge from a nuanced understanding of place, local materials—particularly wood—and indigenous cultural wisdom.

Internationally recognized, Zegers has received prestigious accolades including the Grand Prix of Versailles and the National Geographic Unique Lodge of the World Award. Her practice has been featured in ELLE Decor's Architecture A-List and recognized by Forbes Magazine as a boundary-breaking architectural firm.

Currently led by Zegers, the studio continues to push architectural boundaries, emphasizing sustainable design, ethnoarchitecture, and a holistic approach to territorial intervention that respects ecological and cultural ecosystems.
