O CONTEXTO<\/h1>\n\r\n\r\n INSTABILIDADE ECON\u00d4MICA NA ARGENTINA<\/span>\r\n\r\n

A severe economic depression struck Argentina in the second half of 1998. The ensuing slide eventually led to Argentina\u2019s massive 2001 financial collapse. Moreover, it became the largest debt default in world history. A business designed to offer temporary apartments in Buenos Aires Argentina to vacation and business travelers would seem decades away. But by 2003, much to the surprise of its citizens, the economy started to recover. On the heels of a rise in commodity prices, the country began its ascent from the ashes. The main product was soybeans. Argentina is the world\u2019s third-largest producer. The GDP grew at 9% a year for five straight years.<\/p>\n

There was cheap labor and improving economic conditions. This gave property owners a long-awaited chance to sell. All of this made for a construction boom. For that reason, builders became active. They started replacing many of the prestigious buildings, dating from Argentina\u2019s glorious past, with modern ones. Sadly (depending on your perspective), new construction replaced French and Italian architecture from the 19th century. Revamped zoning codes allowed all of this to happen. Indeed, new permissions lead to taller buildings. Certainly, more sellable meters meant more profit. It was not until 2009 that the city put in place preservation laws. This had the effect of protecting buildings built before 1942.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Built in 1911, we found our building in 2006. It is firmly rooted in Argentina\u2019s history. Formerly, it was the home of the Peralta Ramos, one of our most famous aristocratic families. It was a shell of its former self when we bought it. This neglected mansion became an ideal project for someone with a love for antiquity. It required a respect for the past. And it demanded a desire to preserve a cultural landmark. An absolute naivet\u00e9 in real estate development coupled perfectly with these feelings. As a result, an over-3-year journey led to the completion of 17 serviced apartments in Buenos Aires for temporary rental. All of them within a 100-year-old mansion.<\/p>\n

In 2006, the building was the home of just three people. The front entrance was a driveway. The ground floor was a garage and utility room. While livable, throughout the decades, original spaces in the building were badly damaged. We set about to re-imagine the areas within the building\u2019s structure. We were na\u00efve in thinking that renovation could be easier than new construction. Truly, we believed that changing layouts would be simpler than creating new ones. Sadly, the opposite is true. A new building has many things in its favor. Each craftsman is going to the exact same spot to install their plug, drain, or faucet. Renewal makes one captive to past whims. Each beam must be respected, each column must be accounted for, and each floor will eventually be prayed upon.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

2006 – RESTORATION<\/h1>\n

Since its inception in 1911, the fa\u00e7ade of the building was untouched. We refused to renovate the face of the building with an adhesive cement-like material. Instead, we hired specialists who had been assigned to the Teatro Col\u00f3n\u2018s renovation. They worked non-stop to preserve the building\u2019s street-facing surface. Restoration and preservation mean extensive cleaning and repair of fissures and cracks. This process involves painstaking labor but it is vital to maintain the aura of antiquity. Every window frame needed a major update. Using the original structures, we replaced all of the single paned glass with air-tight double-paned panels. Then, we built them back into the original frames. Lastly, on the first three floors, we made interior window frames that created internal \u2018built-in\u2019 shelving units and a third level of sound lining.<\/p>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/a>\t\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

TODAY – TEMPORARY APARTMENTS IN BUENOS AIRES ARGENTINA<\/h2>\n

Under careful inspection of the two fa\u00e7ade photos, one will notice changes to the building\u2019s face. We cut matching side doors at street level for more light. Also, we opened the 2 round ornamental spaces. Moreover, on the second floor, we cut out small doors leading to the French balconies. Also, we added the two cornices under the central balcony on the third floor that had fallen. Many other ornate pieces left incomplete were repaired, as well.<\/p>\n

Mantivemos todas as grades originais soldadas \u00e0 m\u00e3o, mas as remodelamos meticulosamente.<\/p>\n

Mantendo a antiguidade do exterior, o interior foi totalmente reimaginado e modernizado. As unidades s\u00e3o divididas entre cada planta aberta. A remo\u00e7\u00e3o do teto dianteiro \u00e9 quase impercept\u00edvel. O mesmo pode ser dito para a adi\u00e7\u00e3o de tr\u00eas andares.<\/p>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/a>\t\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

NOSSOS ESFOR\u00c7OS<\/h1>\n\r\n\r\n RESPEITANDO O PASSADO COM UM OLHAR NO FUTURO<\/span>\r\n\r\n

We unearthed over 3 feet of ground floor to create more head space in the lobby. Furthermore, we removed the second floor\u2019s inner courtyard. As a result, more natural light now enters the ground floor. Our patio fountain replaced the small garage space.<\/p>\n

The original elevator was a quaint piece. However, it was tiny and not suitable to today\u2019s needs. Surrounding the old elevator was the original wood staircase. But this one only rose to the 2nd floor. It was well beyond expiry date. Therefore, we had to remove the old elevator shaft and the staircase. We also had to remove the concrete staircase at the rear of the building. We replaced them with two new elevator shafts and their machinery. Also, we built a brand new and more expansive staircase. Steel and concrete make up the new structure.<\/p>\n

Located on the rear body of the building\u2019s roof was the original pool. However, it would be considered more of a pond than a pool by today\u2019s standards. After much effort, we transformed this terrace into a sun deck. Moreover, we covered the area with rare Lapacho hardwood. We also doubled the footprint of the pool. To this end, we did not exert too much weight on the structure below. This feature allows for shallow water space. Therefore, the addition is safe for children and pleasant for adults to lounge.<\/p>\n

MUDAN\u00c7A ESTRUTURAL<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The front of the building did not originally extend past the fourth floor. To expand the living space, we removed the front part of the building\u2019s original roof. For this purpose, we lowered the ceiling by 5 feet to comply with city height concerns. This resulted in private outdoor space for each of our serviced apartments in Buenos Aires above the 4th floor. From there, we built three more stories. These are set back and behind the early fa\u00e7ade. Hidden when looking up from street level are the three added floors. We needed to stabilize the building\u2019s structure for this addition. Therefore, we dug down 30 feet and constructed supporting pillars.<\/p>\n

Brick arches make up the vaulting in most of the ceilings. People believed at the time, that this type of finish was industrial and unsightly. Therefore, they had covered the brick and lowered the ceiling. To our delight, we found these beautiful structures while removing the roof. Hence, we decided to expose them again. Our idea was to maintain the building\u2019s identity while amplifying the spaces.<\/p>\n

Os novos apartamentos em Buenos Aires foram finalmente delimitados. Pisos, pilares e vigas existentes ditavam o layout das unidades. Al\u00e9m disso, substitu\u00edmos e atualizamos todo o sistema de encanamento e eletricidade para os padr\u00f5es atuais. Tamb\u00e9m usamos detalhes meticulosos para instalar paredes, pisos, banheiros, cozinhas e infraestrutura de lazer.<\/p>\n

Years later, we added Recoleta\u2019s first rooftop organic vegetable garden.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Durante anos, arquitetos, planejadores urbanos, encanadores, eletricistas e oper\u00e1rios tentaram nos tirar qualquer sanidade remanescente. No entanto, a alegria que veio com a decora\u00e7\u00e3o dos espa\u00e7os interiores foi imensa. Os dias de bater cabe\u00e7a contra a parede esperando que um trabalhador da constru\u00e7\u00e3o civil aparecesse finalmente terminaram. Est\u00e1vamos prontos para mobiliar os apartamentos e passamos a ficar imersos na arte da decora\u00e7\u00e3o.<\/p>\n

Due to Argentina\u2019s recent economic past, antique pieces brought from Europe around Argentina\u2019s heyday were plentiful. They were also gleefully sold. We visited many local auction houses, antique stores and galleries. We scoured the inventory for pieces that would work together. Furthermore, we worked extensively with local artisans refurbishing or re-imaging pieces. Also, we created new ones from scratch. This labor of love resulted in our somewhat eclectic style. It mixes a Louis XV bedside table with a massive hand cut chandelier. It pairs reclaimed work benches with modern art pieces.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
