*자연과 조화를 이룬 와이너리-[ FREDERICO VALSASSINA ] HERDADE DO FREIXO WINERY

야생 올리브나무와 오크 나무 무리로 둘러싸인 와이너리는 풍경의 연속성상에서 모든 확장과 융합된다. 기존 지형 형태는 프로젝트 설계시 매우 결정적인 요소가 되었고 어떠한 이유로라도 현장의 균형을 깨뜨리지 않으려고 했다. 기능적인 교차점, 내부 / 외부와 자연 / 인공의 관계는 즉각적인 비주얼의 접촉을 이끌지 않는다.

Herdade do Freixo Winery, with about 300ha, and 26ha of vineyard, presents itself as a typical Alentejo landscape, undulating, diversified and with interesting points of view of the surroundings.

Punctuated by clusters of wild olive trees and holm oak, it still concentrates in one of its elevations a mount, identified by the typically rural constructions that define it.

The morphology of the existing ground was so decisive for the conception of the project, making it imperative to keep it unchanged although subject to an intervention with this volume of construction. Any intervention would never jeopardize the balance found on site.

The winery appears in the continuity of the landscape, merging with all that extension.

The functional intersection, the relation between interior / exterior and natural / artificial report the existence of an inner presupposition, with which we have no immediate visual contact. It appears as an artificial accident whose anonymity is being lost as it travels allowing different circuits that cross the heart of the intervention, the central courtyard, unifying element of all circulations.

It was placed on a fluid and sequential transition of spaces that are intended to physically and visually communicate. These are followed by providing diversified overlapping views, similarly to what happens in the herdade topography, which indicate that there is more beyond what is directly within reach. The purified language of architectural forms takes advantage of the scenic effect of the building, captivating the visitor and convincing him to go through all the spaces in order to perceive the whole and understand the functional hierarchy between them, distinguishing and individualizing each of the zones industrial and social components.

The option to bury the winery, projecting it in several floors to more than 40m of depth, allowed to take advantage of the gravitational force in the process of winemaking, respecting the wine masses and using the most advanced and innovative techniques of oenology, which helped to reach the best thermal conditions for wine conservation given the reduction of the thermal amplitude and the low temperature values.
