FSY HoUSe
THe FSY HoUSe is located within a gated community on the
outskirts of Buenos Aires, on a plot overlooking a small lagoon and
a golf course. Designed for a couple that privileges the spaces of
relaxation and reunion for when their children and grandchildren
visit them.
At pedestrian level, the front facade seduces with a set of
concrete planes that fuses with the large panels of the gate and
main door clad in Neolith, and a passive parasol system of micro
perforated sheets that filters and gives privacy to the openings.
We get to the entrance door after walking on travertine steps that
contrast with the intense foliage of the plants that surround the
path. The exterior wall covered in travertine accompanies us to
the interior. In front of this, a wall covered from floor to ceiling
in lapacho wood hides the doors to the guest bathroom and spa.

double height. An exposed concrete wall, with a handmade cast,

through the glazed roof. This meeting point of the house visually
links all the rooms of the house. The reflection pool, coated in
dark porfido, marks the bottom of the travertine ladder that floats
on the water. Separated by a system of solid wooden jambs, the
reflecting pool becomes the pool of the spa.
The spa, realized in dark tones and exposed concrete walls,
creates an atmosphere of relaxation that invites to enjoy the
indoor pool. The spa communicates to the outside through a large
glazed pivot door, which allows access to the gallery that extends
from the side to the back of the house. Overlooking the garden,
a double living, and formal dining room takes shape. All set with
minimal furniture of the highest quality. The travertine marble
