光束从窗口投射在白色无暇的背景上，不只是彩色涂料，纹理、家具以及居住者日常的动作一同组成了这个位于巴塞罗那伊克桑普区的小公寓。舒适的空间不仅满足了居住的基本需求，也突显出两位年轻的业主精致有趣的收藏。 有着黑色头发的工业设计师和他身为教师的白人妻子，以公寓为展馆，展示了他们与家具、艺术和文学有关的藏品。然而他们最宝贵的“收藏”并非那副挂在墙上的原作，或是那件在单调空间里十分醒目的当代工业设计的经典之作：他们“宇宙”之中那颗最真实的“星星” 无疑不是别人，正是他们刚满四岁的儿子Joaquim，他正计划着用他那些并不昂贵、但更有趣多彩的东西去占领公寓的每一个房间。

It wasn’t only paint, but textures, furniture, and the constant movement of those who inhabit this flat in Barcelona’s Eixample what has been placed over a deep and spotless white background that opens itself onto the streams of light entering through the windows. A cosy void, functionally resolved to house and give prominence to a small but interesting collection of pieces of furniture, art and literature curated by its young owners: an dark haired industrial designer and his fair skinned language teacher wife. However, the most valuable they have “acquired”, over the years and between the two, are not the original prints hanging on the walls or the contemporary classics of industrial design that dot the monochromatic amplitude of these newly integrated spaces: The authentic and unquestionable “star” of their universe will have to be no other but Joaquim, their son, who in just about 4 years has managed to colonize every room of the house with a whole lot of “stuff” that is doubtlessly less expensive but certainly a lot more colourful, resistant and fun.

现在是时候设计一个“经得起玩具考验”的家，尽管为设计师同行进行设计可能有一些微妙。对活泼而充满趣味的氛围的限定，让我们开始质疑建造环境所起的作用：设计如何保持在背景上的同时成为突显的图像？这间简洁实用的公寓就可以回答这个问题：是的，根据观者想应用的场合和目的，一个明亮、整洁又舒适的背景可以通过随机的鲜艳色块而成为焦点，构架或仅仅是背景。

The time to design toy-proof homes had arrived, and though designing for fellow designers can certainly be tricky, this time it entailed also a sense of playfulness and lots of fun, allowing us to question the leading role of the built surrounding within the domestic realm, while posing the opportunity to raise questions that, as those of the children, might result uncomfortable: Can the “oh-so-sacred architecture” be a mere backdrop behind the “true starring design objects”? How can the background become the figure while remaining at the “back”? The answers to the above are so clear, practical and simple as this house: Yes!, a bright, neat and comfortable backdrop, that through the random admission of powerful splashes of colour, becomes the object, the frame or the background depending on the occasion, the aim and the focus the viewer chooses to use.
