Can Manuel d’en Corda坐落在一块面积19060平方米的、充满了乡村特色的土地上,这片土地坐落在弗门特拉岛西边儿的Venda des Cap de Barbaria区域中。住宅场址上最重要的已有条件是一片小的松树和杜松林,这片树林坐落在场址和旧Can Manuel de'n Corda住宅西侧的区域中,树林被保存了下来,并通过这个项目被增强了,这反映了弗门特拉岛在十八世纪晚期和十九世纪中期所修建的本土建筑中使用的方案类型。
Can Manuel d’en Corda is located on a plot of 19,060 m2 of rustic nature in the area of the Venda des Cap de Barbaria, in the west of the island of Formentera.The most significant pre-existing conditions, which have been maintained and enhanced through the project, are a small forest of pines and junipers located in the west area of the estate and the old house Can Manuel de'n Corda, which reflects the scheme type of the domestic vernacular architecture developed in Formentera between the late eighteenth and mid nineteenth century.
The volume of the main body with simple pitched roof gable and southeast orientation, and its roots in the landscape through the tradicional dry stone walls, highlight the link between this type of building with the farms next to which they were located.The extensive briefing for the project has been arranged so that while exhaust the urban parameters allowed by the current planning, it distorts as little as possible the existing house and, simultaneously, has its volume so that it has less presence possible from the immediate fragile environment.
