Cabin 192 Transformation by Daniel Canda & Asociados

FeaturedModern two-story home with glass walls, brick exterior, and tall chimney surrounded by trees.

Cabin 192, a house in Los Cardales, Argentina, was transformed by Daniel Canda & Asociados in 2023. The project involved retaining the existing brick volume and replacing its gable roof with a flat, metal-supported one to add new bedrooms. Internally, walls were removed to create an open layout and a central concrete structure. Stone and glass were used to differentiate the volumes, prioritising a fluid, simple interior in contact with nature.
