Patricio Pouchulu Architect / British Council / Buenos Aires / 1999

This project for an interior refurbishment of the British Council branch in the Argentinean Capital was asked with the intention of exploring a new architectural image, integrating institutional forms and colours. It consists of a new horizontal "window" along the existing courtain-wall, sort of "moving" skin that regulates the natural light and organises the interior. It brings the idea of a future environment, simple but sophisticated. The project shows an innovative concept for re-using a standard office space made in the seventies. A series of visual information systems was developed as well, wrapping the pillars with coloured acrilic panels. EN ES
