Sena House by Remyarchitects Faces Privileged River Views

A double-height living room acts as Sena House’s central nucleus, with levels sporting mixed use and clad in travertine at this residence in Nordelta, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Remyarchitects designed the 2024 home to sit on a corner lot with views of the surrounding landscape.

Sena House is arranged into three levels with differing uses, layouts and morphology to maximize views of the river.

The entire home is finished with a veneer of travertine, a material choice that the studio claims “reflects a commitment to durability and elegance”.

The cladding “provides a unique texture and establishes a visual and spatial continuity between the exterior and interior”.

“The residence is organized into three levels, clearly differentiated by their morphology, creating a dynamic interaction between indoor and outdoor spaces while maximizing views of the water,” said Remyarchitects.

The ground level contains the public-facing spaces of the home, anchored by the double-height living room that serves as the organizational core of the home.

This space was “strategically positioned on the corner of the plot, takes advantage of both facades and river views”.

From this central room, the rest of the social spaces of the home flow “in two directions: towards the kitchen and the daily dining room on one side, and towards the main dining room and barbecue area on the other”.

The primary suite is located on the upper floor, which is spread over the second and third floors. The suite faces east “to capture the morning light and offering panoramic views of the river”.

Other sleeping areas on the floor include the children’s bedrooms, which face north to south and move to another large deck at the front of the home.

The makeup of the rooms in the upper floor plan “provides different perspectives of the landscape, ensuring privacy and comfort for each family member”.

Above, a guest bedroom was included along with a multipurpose space connected via an expansive terrace.

In this way, the home creates a “cohesive experience that highlights the connection between the home and its surroundings”.

One of the Remyarchitects founders, José Remy, is an expert on travertine and has designed furniture collections to highlight the material.
