CasaGrande is a Condo-Hotel: apartments rented within a hotel administration, for 10 years. Located at the entrance of Jose Ignacio, it is a building that will be iconic, for its implementation and for being the first building of this scale in this peninsula.

Vilela II / Estudio Planta

Second chance. This building is contiguous to a previous work of the studio: Vilela 1. Because of this location the first question arises: is it a continuation of the previous work? Or, what topics to continue? What do we want to improve? Since the place is the same, the urban situation is (almost) the same. But it is 12 years later.

Commodore Apartment Building / Planta

This building arises both from the proposal to live in the hybrid type "department with garden", and also as a condition of the old planning code of Buenos Aires. This code was governed by the FOT - land occupation factor: a factor by which the land area is multiplied to obtain the amount of selling meters in the land. The price of the land is fixed based on this number. But the FOT is not computed on the exterior uncovered surfaces, so if the mass built is organized in terraces, more selling meters are obtained, without having paid for them. The building is situated on a 45m long ground. Its north facade overlooks a wide and wooded boulevard. This length allowed the entire building to be terraced so as to generate large sunny balconies. Conceptually there are 7 stacked houses, each different from the others, with large exterior spaces and a lot of perimeter of contact with the outside.
