Hualanco in Atacama, Chile by TETRO arquiteturaSunday, June 21st, 2020Article source: TETRO arquitetura Thinking the future after global pandemic lock down. The Hualanco Community Center is an investigation of how architecture can help to revive cultural activities, from the Peruvian highlands to the desert region of Chile’s Atacama. The ephemeral structure is modular, removable, itinerant and protected by a textile membrane.

Rural House #01 in Matanzas, Chile by CRISTOBAL VIAL ARQUITECTOSTuesday, May 26th, 2020Article source: CRISTOBAL VIAL ARQUITECTOS This work corresponds to a vacation home, the first construction within a condominium located a few minutes from the town of Matanzas, Navidad. Given the conditions in which it is located, the first thing was to look for the distant views of the Pacific Ocean and the immediate territory, such as the existing vegetation, the ravines and, of course, a good orientation that allows the work to maintain sunlight throughout the year and good ventilation.

Casa FN in Santiago, Chile by Lambiasi Westenenk arquitectosSunday, April 19th, 2020Article source: Lambiasi Westenenk arquitectos The FN House is located on an 860m2 site in Vitacura, Santiago, Chile. The project covers the renovation and expansion of this 1963 house, whose design belongs to the architects Bodenhöfer, Schencke and Konrad. The proposal seeks to respect and appraise the typical modern architecture of its time, enhancing the intention to compress / expand its main spaces. The angled spaces that characterize the house were respected and reinterpreted through the new architecture. The original area is 140m2 and the proposal extends it to 300m2, mainly through the growth of the service facilities and the incorporation a second level that generates new bedrooms and complementary enclosures.

La Huerta House in Santiago, Chile by ESTUDIO BASE ARQUITECTOSThursday, March 5th, 2020Article source: ESTUDIO BASE ARQUITECTOS La Huerta House is located in the eastern sector of the city of Santiago. It is characterized by being a corner site, this allows the house to have two facades that are exposed to the street. The commission was to remodel a one floor house, incorporate a second floor and design the outdoor spaces; As the land is located in a corner, we wanted to project a pure volume with a wooden covering that contrasts with the materiality of the first floor and from the outside it will simulate floating on the ground like a wooden box.

Piacenza Apartments in Chile by SML ARQUITECTOSWednesday, January 15th, 2020Article source: SML ARQUITECTOS The Piacenza Building arises from a commission to design a multi-residential building on a small site designated for medium rise development. Constructions from 7 to 10 storeys surround the site, however, given the site area, we were only allowed to develop five storeys and a sixth floor with larger setbacks on the sides. The challenge of the project resides in how to turn this apparent disadvantage into a mark of distinction. We proposed the design to be in explicit contrast to the surrounding buildings, typically tall, bulky, and having a typical residential apartment building character. Our proposal suggests a small scale, low density, and using materials such as exposed in situ concrete and expanded metal sheets on the outside. Thus, the building looks more appropriate for the site yet also unique, standing out among its surrounding. Regulatory constraints are clearly evident in its simple and pure geometry, and the upper level is planned as an overlaid black box to the lower concrete volume, while, towards the street, the terraces are designed as thin slabs cantilevered over the front yard.

Noa Noa Club in Santiago, Chile by BRAVO OFFICETuesday, November 12th, 2019Article source: BRAVO OFFICE Oficina Bravo and Design Systems International collaborated to bring new life to a venue that had historically been home to several clubs already. The ambition was to create a both sophisticated and low-tech aesthetic that, while maximizing the use of the space, was able to project a recognizable identity and attract the public nightly from Wednesday through Saturday. The project utilized principles that were applied consistently throughout the space to give it a unique and recognizable character: using exclusively amber color for lighting, a custom low-resolution LED screen system with a custom variable width typeface setup, and the uniform floor-to-ceiling application of color.

LC House in Santiago, Chile by Cristián Romero ValenteSunday, September 8th, 2019Article source: Cristián Romero Valente The LC house is located to the eastern side of Santiago, Chile. It is built on the upper part of a slope making it higher than street level. Maximizing the most of this condition, a street level entrance to an underground parking was built. The house entrance is accessible through a flight of stairs which start at the street and ascends until it reaches the main access. To make the entrance stand out, the area was pulled outward from the main volume, framing the sky and giving it natural light.  Image Courtesy © Pablo Casals Aguirre
