Camarones – Professional Studios in Buenos Aires, Argentina by Frazzi ArchitectsNovember 24th, 2019 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Frazzi Architects This small block of Professional Studios is located on a tiny corner lot in La Paternal neighborhood. The urban situation for insertion is somewhat particular, as La Paternal is the typical sort of popular neighborhood, with a low scale, certainly neglected, bohemian, a soccer fan (the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium of Argentinos Junior soccer team, which is called “the World hotbed” by its supporters, and where Diego Armando Maradona started his football career, is just two blocks far from this building), with an interesting accessibility to different areas in the city and, since very few years ago, steadily growing and being renovated… The morphology with which the corner was conformed emerges from the structural resolution, in the manner of juxtaposed and stacked concrete plaques by gross table generating full and empty spaces, with a kind of sculptural treatment, granting identity to the building, integrating it and “making a city”…  Image Courtesy © ARQ.

FEDERICO KULEKDJIAN The stacking intends to revalue the common spaces, conforming a transition space which dissolves the limits with the urban space, an empty space in the access as an internal “lung” that links itself both with the city and the public – private areas of the building, generating a visual continuity and light and natural ventilation at the entrances and halls, in the manner of a spatial situation prior to each private functional cell. This vertical access “patio – lung”, with a strong plastic character, is also complemented by the presence of vegetation, a pyramidal poplar of vertical genesis that will intend to cover the whole height of the building, in conjunction with an artistic mural that reminds and reinterprets the primitive morphological idea of the building design.

The single room functional “cells” units, with the presence of wide windows that give a great luminosity and ventilation, are characterized by taking advantage of the space, hiding the services (kitchens and bathrooms) with a system of simil wood plaques, thus achieving flexibility and aesthetics in its use.

FEDERICO KULEKDJIAN These boxes – typologies are thought as being small spaces for professional activities, according to the present demand, the heterogeneity of different professions, the time and the economy of resources… The volumetric and constructive coherence of the works with a limited program, together with the use of noble materials, different spatial situations, and complemented with the proposed vegetation, close an experimental intervention which is meant to make Architecture and City…  Image Courtesy © ARQ.
