SUKKHA by OON ARCHITECTURE

Sukkha House designed by OON ARCHITECTURE was built in a gated community located in the northern region of Buenos Aires.
The volume of the building consists of two pieces that depict the formal simplicity of the design. There is the intention of discovering the house’s own voice, based on the use of bright volumes that rest one on top of the other. Pure forms with the possibility of being slid without meeting anything but total emptiness, creating habitable spaces. Photography by Alejandro Peral.

House 9D by Mi Design Studio and Jennifer Sinclair

A second chance for the renowned “ice house” This house designed by Mi Design Studio with interior designer curated by Jennifer Sinclair is a perfect example of how architecture not only creates a home, but also shape communities for the better. The project is a major renovation to an existing dilapidated single-storey brick house. For years, the original house that sat on this block was renowned in the suburb for the trouble it caused. The days when the previous occupier wasn’t spending their nights in jail, they would regularly play arsonist to either cars outside or neighbour’s backyards. To fund their recreational habits, the house was tenaciously stripped to its bare frames, not even a single underground pipework remained… Photography by Cam Murchison, May Photography, Villa Styling.

This way, we managed to create a large free area for the garden and swimming pool, taking advantage of the sunniest orientation. Photography by Eduardo Macarios.
