Central Acuña is born from a dual ambition: to reconcile the formal expression of the neighboring buildings while creating an interior public space that serves as a calm urban retreat. More than just filling an empty lot, this project transforms the void into a dynamic meeting point where architecture mediates between built form and open space, between the city’s energy and the need for respite, between continuity and transformation.
The design strategy is based on a modular grid, generating a fluid and adaptable volumetry. Through subtle variations within this structure, the building accommodates diverse functions without losing coherence: one module can be a bedroom, another a living room, another a balcony, and on the ground floor, this same logic expands to house public programs. This system of repetition and modulation not only gives the building a strong visual identity but also allows it to integrate harmoniously with its neighbors, creating a seamless transition between different architectural styles and scales.
