Clay 2928

"Along the XX century, some of the biggest household building projects in the city have proposed ruminations or experiments over different problems, some related to houses and ways of living, and others more to do with architecture's relation with nature, constructive systems, or climate. " - Dieguez Fridman arquitectos & asociados on how their project Clay 2928 tries to look beyond.

Words from the designer

"In a residential district of Buenos Aires, this housing project seeks to incorporate in its apartments -- different spaces, elements and details from single-family houses."

Detail of the facade.

"The eight units are organized in two levels, with the living room as a double-height space that connects them. Both -- the main bedroom and the living room; have wide terraces in front of them, one overlooking the other, closed by glass sunshades that reduce solar gain and transform the facade into an intermediate space between the interior and the exterior: an outdoor space protected from the wind, the rain and the views from the sidewalk."
