The house manifests itself on the street as a long and austere brick façade, evoking the sensation of entering a courtyard. This architectural gesture creates the impression of being immersed in a larger space as if the house itself were contained within a more expansive courtyard—following a nested logic reminiscent of a matryoshka doll.

Quincho Bialet is a space created to host the ritual of barbecue. The project is located in the small town of Bialet Massé, in a site nestled between Lake San Roque and the Sierras Chicas. The main concept of the project is a cover, supported by two walls that house the sanitary services and storage spaces for the main area of the barbecue ritual. This central space is the main objective of the project: a hierarchical, central space, liberated and deprogrammed. It is essentially a kind of refuge for collective gathering, for cooking with fire, and for sharing with others. There is no equipment or enclosures, only grills conceived as hollows in the walls.
