These are the offices of Animal Music, a music recording studio. Our main idea for this project was to depurate and clean the caotic space of the common areas. We created a new space that contains a very long high table were different activities could evolve. This was the main intervention done were visitors are welcome to sit or browse though the flor to ceiling bookcase while waiting for a meeting.
Foster + Partners has completed its first project in Latin America with the opening of the Faena Aleph Residences in Buenos Aires, Argentina – part of the reinvention of the former docks of Puerto Madero as a dynamic new urban quarter. Drawing on local architectural traditions, its apartments feature vaulted living spaces and deep, sheltered terraces that exploit the wonderful local climate and maximise views towards the city and Rio de la Plata.
This was our first project in Costa Esmeralda, a real estate development neighbor to Pinamar started in 2004. As a recent batching, at the moment there are very few constructions and the place is known for having different types of landscapes, with vegetation varying from pine forests, with similar characteristics to the forest of Mar Azul, to areas where that vegetation is scarce.
This project arises from a particular pose of making a building as a family and study. Parents, brothers and architects make a client. Not a building, are stacked five units high. Five homes by name.
In the current proposal for a Contemporary Museum of Art in Buenos Aires, the inception is based on synergetic plays of volumes and interlink-interlacing manifolds of tectonic forms and panels that create a dynamic fluxion of mass, surfaces and lines. The articulations involved relay on formal masses in an arrangement or in a cohesive group that perform more than the sum of its parts. The museum is multi-layered and composed of radiant volumes and pieces which converge in a poly-operational, structural, and sensuous array of tectonics. The effect of multi-generative forms grouped and working together as a performativewhole is a diverse set of fluid and crystallized components strategically placed for an outcome of a dynamic structure, which valiancy plays a role in the visual and experiential impact of the viewer.
This is a field in a small condominium of 16 lots located in an area of the Buenos Aires Province, traditionally of farms, that with the trace of the Western Highway has been gradually transforming into a permanent housing place. Located in front of the grounds of the National Institute of Agricultural Technology (INTA), this location has long-term guarantee to continue maintaining a privileged position in their quality of life and landscape value.
Taking control of the entry of the natural light was the starting point of the design.to the interiors of the building not only from vertical openings but also of inner balconies and skylights. It is for this reason that the public space and circulations of the house is organized around a large skylight, and then the spatial form of continuous pieces is unleashing outdoors.

This is a building in the neighborhood of Boedo, in a typical batch of 8.66m which has the special fund that s is adjacent to an urban courtyard with plenty of trees, where there is a football school and a small square. The view on this green match the best direction: north. This neighborhood of CABA, like many others, is changing its appearance as a result of the strong demand for multifamily housing produced in recent years. Without us even lose neighborhood characteristics, begins to suffer and enjoy the inevitable changes brought about any proposal for densification of a city.

Mar Azul is a seaside resort 400 km south of Buenos Aires, with an extensive beach of dunes and lush virgin forest of conifers. The land is part of the forest has the distinction of being very narrow and long and having a surface slope almost 5 meters before the baseline. From that point the dune has a sharp depression of low vegetation cover (acacia) but no pines. So looking from the lot to that area, conifers of the terrain is clear cut in this very special evening when the sun is going down and horizontally through the trees. This uniqueness makes this undoubtedly the most privileged view.
Mar Azul is a seaside resort on the coast of Buenos Aires, located 12 miles south of Villa Gesell, with an extensive beach of dunes and lush virgin forest of conifers. The owners, members of the study and connoisseurs for years in this place chose precisely the splendid scenery of the forest to build a small summer house.
