Patricio Pouchulu Architect / Students Hall / Buenos Aires / 1985

This early project is placed as a final boundary in the east limit of the city, where the urban grid reaches the park. The building just touches the grass, giving the impression of lightness and delicacy; two ramps connect the entrances with the sidewalks. The scheme has three bodies: Auditorium (cinema/theatre/rehearsal room) Student residences and a flat Exhibition Space linking them. The Student Residences have a large inner space and a refectory/bar in the ground floor. The Exhibition area is a passage in between the main bodies, where people from the city can reach the student's works and the students can meet visitors from the city. The structure and surfaces, made of concrete, are partially exposed and mostly covered with rectangular isolated stainless-steel panels. EN ES
