Lectures

Teaching is an active part of our practice. For many years, members of AtelierM have taught Architectural Design at FADU, University of Buenos Aires, establishing a continuous exchange between practice, research and academia.

This exchange extends beyond institutional settings through lectures, workshops and ongoing dialogue with architects and colleagues from different disciplines.

Collaborative

AtelierM is conceived as a workshop: a collaborative space where people, disciplines, stories and different ways of thinking come together.

We approach design as an editorial process. Rather than starting from a single predetermined solution, we open up multiple possibilities, testing different ideas, relationships and directions. Through a multidisciplinary and collective process, these possibilities are discussed, challenged, combined and gradually refined until the project finds its most meaningful form.

For us, collaboration is not simply about working together; it is a way of designing.

Sustainable

Sustainability is at the root of our work. We understand it as a way of designing rather than a goal in itself.

Our approach considers durability, resources, energy, landscape and the long-term impact of what we build. Inspired by the principles of circular economy, we seek to create architecture that consumes less, lasts longer and encourages more conscious ways of inhabiting.

Experimental

We understand architecture as a continuous process of exploration and evolution.

We know the rules and understand the parameters, yet we allow each project to develop without knowing exactly where the process will lead. Through experimentation with geometry, materials, technology and traditional crafts, we search for new possibilities while remaining grounded in the realities of construction.

Every project becomes part of that ongoing evolution.

Music meets Architecture

Both architecture and music influence our state on mind. They’re capable of producing unique emotions. That is no project without rhythm and structure, as there is no emotion without harmony or melody.

In the quest for emotion generators, there is a constant dance between music and architecture. Sometimes the answer comes one, and some from the other. We just have to explore and keep our senses wide open.

Music shows rhythm, silence, harmony, melody and fluidity. These notions are extremely valuable to architecture as tools for the design process.

Basically, by discussing these concepts we can see clearly how architecture and music both speak the very same language.

We create exciting designs based on the circular economy, through a creative workshop of constant search and experimentation, made up of a collaborative team.

Matias Mosquera

Matias Mosquera, Architect, musician, born in 1985 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, attended University of Buenos Aires.

From years 2011 to 2012, he was part of 3XN Design team in Denmark. After that, and through the year of 2020 he started BAM! Architecture along an associate partner, in which they achieved great acknowledgements on their work, including Architecture Biennials and other international organizations.

In the year of 2020, alongside a great team, he started AtelierM, where he furthered his work and exploration about architecture in different scales and regions, thus creating an avant-gard office.

Academically, he is currently teaching Architectural Design in the University of Buenos Aires, and has been doing so since 2018.

His work has been published in over 100 countries, and in several platforms, including Archdaily, Designboom, Dezeen, Clarin Arquitectura, Revista Trama, Living, Homify, Landscape Design, Casas Internacional, Arqa, 1:1, 30-60, Archilover, Architizer, Archello, Barzon, Detail, Design Milk, Catalogo Arquitectura.

La casa MeMo se encuentra implantada en un terreno en San Isidro, zona norte de la provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina, surge con la premisa de una clienta apasionada por el paisajismo con fuerte convicción sobre la sustentabilidad y el cuidado del medio ambiente de realizar un proyecto en un lote entre medianeras reduciendo al máximo la pérdida de espacios verdes por la construcción de su vivienda.

Frente a la propuesta nos propusimos con BAM! construir arquitectura y paisaje en forma simultánea. Los metros cuadrados de la huella del edificio vuelven en un jardín en tres dimensiones, vinculando a través del mismo todas las plantas de arquitectura.

El diseño morfológico nace frente la decisión de no desaprovechar metros cuadrados de suelo vegetal por un lado y de generar una entrada de luz mediante un patio al tratarse de un terreno entre medianeras. Frente a esta disposición se genera un juego topográfico, mediante un sistema de rampas verdes que conectan el nivel cero, con el primer piso y la cubierta, creando una continua terraza jardín.

MeMo es un proyecto donde el recorrido arquitectónico juega un rol decisivo, teniendo en cuenta al usuario habitual y ocasional, a los que se les brinda un espectáculo, no solo una imagen fija, sino una serie de imágenes que se solapan, y donde cada cuadro de la escena fue pensado.

Concebimos a la sustentabilidad del proyecto como un camino y no como una meta, tomando las normas LEED como base e incorporando la durabilidad y la economía, conceptos que para nosotros son fundamentales en nuestras obras de arquitectura, satisfaciendo de esta forma las necesidades de las generaciones presentes, sin comprometer las posibilidades de las futuras, de forma tal que se reduce de manera significativa el impacto sobre el medioambiente y sus habitantes.

En primer lugar, abordamos el camino de la sustentabilidad mediante la elección de un lote sostenible, donde la propietaria se puede desenvolver a pie o en bicicleta para la mayoría de sus actividades; como así también mediante la utilización de vegetación nativa en sus jardines y cubiertas, restaurando el paisaje natural y reduciendo el efluente pluvial.

Luego iniciamos el diseño con impronta bioambiental, cuidando en el proyecto desde la ubicación en el terreno, su orientación, la morfología del volumen construido respecto del recorrido del sol y su incidencia en los espacios, para aprovechar su energía, la ubicación estratégica de vegetación nativa hasta la elección de los materiales aislantes de la envolvente arquitectónica.

Una vez que determinamos la volumetría del edificio, empezamos con intervenciones más puntuales. Primero con el uso eficiente del agua por medio de tecnología eficaz en aguas residuales, como así también mediante la reducción del consumo de agua utilizando el agua de lluvia para el riego de las especies nativas, las cuales tienen un requerimiento mínimo de hidratación.
