MB Arquitectura, La Plata, Argentina, Sole Principal

Firm of Architecture focused on Residential Projects in La Plata, Argentina. Experience in Construction Administration related to several construction technologies, materials and finishes.
Many of these projects were custom homes for first time homeowners; therefore construction expandability based in modular coordination was one of the most important design features. Every project was developed from design inception to construction management combining the experience on both areas as a tool to explore different architecture languages based in the modular coordination and standards of different technologies.
The design-concept since its inception is focused on the relationship with the clients and the way they express their future life in a new space.
Each case has shown a constant evolution of client-architect relationship integrating client's goal-aspiration as a family home and MB Arquitectura experience. The objective is to establish an affordable scope for the project-construction budget based on an alternative Design-Build delivery process in terms of spatial layouts, architectural shape and technology resources.
