down to the smallest details. Aesthetics are the driving force of my life, and I strive to find the meaning of beauty in every project I design.
It is my great passion.
My masterpiece:
My personal masterpieces are definitely and always will be.
They're going to be my children.
In my professional life, my masterpiece to date was the Rincón del Socorro project, a residence located in what
Today it is the Iberá Nature Reserve, which we co-designed with Douglas Tompkins. It was a project nourished by the traditions of Corrientes.
Their respect and love for the land and craftsmanship were our motivation and inspiration for the design of the place. We sought to integrate
and connect with their culture, and it was a beautiful experience. From this perspective
I believe that a masterpiece has less to do with magnitude or complexity, and more to do with representing the essence and beauty that the place gives us through its history, its culture, and the people who inhabit it.

It doesn't necessarily stem from aesthetics, but from a search. I try to see what the place offers me, what surrounds it, and what the people involved in the project bring. I could say that I always look for warmth, for the space to feel alive, full of elements that generate peace.

We believe that everyone has an artistic side in different ways. How would you define your most artistic side?

What makes you unique?
I truly believe that we are all unique by definition. Our own experiences and perceptions create a 'unique formula' that

What's the most organic thing you do in your life?
I love living surrounded by nature; it inspires me, I keep it in mind in every project, and I bring it inside, into the place where I live and breathe. I believe that organic living is present in this sense.
in my entire life.
