Text description provided by the architects. The design of the Buenos Aires House is based on the overlapping of two volumes on a lot with two fronts. The upper volume, denser and marked by concrete slats, rests on the monochromatic ground floor, which combines paint and metal sheets in shades of gray.

Both volumes utilize sliding panels of the muxarabi type as a complement to the translucent dividers, which, in addition to ensuring privacy, promote movement and variations of light and shadow throughout the day. On the upper floor, a continuous balcony runs along the entire side, housing the movable panels and connecting the suites, playroom, and intimate living room to an outdoor living area with a view of the garden. On the ground floor, the panels serve a similar function, now articulating the social spaces.

The entrance hall features a gallery that embodies the family's love for the arts. To accommodate the program of each user, a modular sideboard of over 5 meters was designed. The modules vary in use and function, opening and storage systems, as well as in heights and depths, making the piece light and dynamic despite its size. One of them, made of stainless steel, functions as a tray for personal items and creates a visual breathing point in the furniture.

Art is also configured through signature lighting fixtures such as Oop's and Lucellino Doppio by Ingo Maurer, present in the hall and the restroom, and the Simbiosi pendants by Davide Groppi, located above the dining table. In the living area, we have the Taccia by Flos and the Memory by Jader Almeida.

From the hall, the space is guided by a curved wall that acts as a dividing element between the environments. This structure not only softens the visual transition to the rooms but also serves as a base for artworks and as support for the sideboard that serves the dining table. With a stainless steel structure and a hand-painted modular glass top, the sideboard molds and follows the same geometry of the curve, which, in the morning, creates a translucent effect when receiving sunlight.

The open floor plan of the house prioritizes fluidity between spaces. The kitchen opens completely to the dining room, and integrated into it, a continuous wall in oak veneer conceals the pantry and china cabinet. The central island of the kitchen, facing the garden, ensures functionality and visual connection with the exterior in front of all work areas.
