Open House Buenos Aires is part of the Open House Worldwide network. In Argentina, the event has been organized since 2013 by CoHabitar Urbano, a non-profit association established to foster a creative connection between the city and its people, promoting the values of Argentine architecture and history. For its eighth edition, the international architecture festival of Buenos Aires has adopted a renewed format to adapt to the ongoing pandemic and bring architecture to its citizens even in this atypical 2020.
