BUILDING TYPOLOGY: RESTAURANT

LOCATION: BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA

 

BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA, IS RAPIDLY TRANSFORMING INTO A MAJOR TOURIST AREA, BUT THE AMOUNT OF GREEN SPACE IS INSUFFICIENT FOR THE COMMUNITY. WITH THAT IN MIND; THIS PROPOSAL WAS A RESTAURANT THAT CREATES AN ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY AREA THAT INSPIRES INDIVIDUALS TO APPRECIATE ALL  THE THINGS NATURE PROVIDES US WITH. THE USE OF LOCAL NATURAL MATERIALS, PLANT SPECIES FOR 100 PERCENT RAINWATER COLLECTION, AND NATURAL VENTILATION TECHNIQUES ARE ALL APART OF THIS DESIGN PROCESS AND A DRIVING FACTOR WITHIN THE DESIGN FORM ITSELF.
