Buenos Aires Architecture
Architecture projects in Buenos Aires and the Argentine coast, covering dense urban infill, courtyard housing, and sustainable residential design.
Buenos Aires is one of the largest cities in Latin America, and its architecture reflects a long history of European-influenced urban planning, dense residential blocks, and frequent renovation of existing buildings. Designers working here often contend with narrow lots, party walls, and strict facade rules that shape how interiors meet the street.
Member work on this topic examines mixed-use facades that combine clinical, residential, and studio programs in a single frontage, interior courtyards that bring planting into apartment buildings, and coastal houses built with sustainability in mind.
