The site is 2.000sq. meters, facing the Northeast, looking
at the Canal Arias river., in the suburbs of Buenos Aires. It has 450 sq meters
and it is designed for a couple without kids, with, in the ground floor, a program of very big reception areas, that
opens and closes by very big wooden sliding doors that hides into the walls.
In the first floor are the Master Bedroom and another small
bedroom for guests.
The house is designed based on two stone walls ( made of
Laja Neuquen ) that interact all over the house. The color of the stone is the
origin of all the color pallet of the house.
Water surrounds the house, and that is the origin of the
name of it (Agua in English means Water). A very large swimming pool crosses
the site, and you can see linear ponds
of water all around the house.
The landscape all the time gets to the building across it’s
big crystal facades. The light transforms the house along the day.
