Text description provided by the architects. At the corner of Mercedes and Asuncion streets, in the neighborhood of Villa Devoto we sought to construct a building that stood out from the structure of the neighborhood, with its materiality and its proposal, and that it would signal the location of the offices of MMCV Studio, strong architecture developers in the area. Personally, we took into consideration the typology of housing with setbacks -very present in the neighborhood- and we sought to redefine it, leaving wider sidewalks and seeking functional elements such as stones that sporadically mark the boundary of the site. The generous space of the sidewalks cuts the continuity at a pedestrian level and offers an unevenness that invites to better appreciate the building; organized in three pure volumes that give shape and character to the corner, while displayed as a sculptural object.
