THE BUILDING
Teaching and living architecture from day one
The School of Architecture building was built in 1978 by architects Carlos Sobrini, Eugenio Aguinaga and Rafael Echaide. It was expressly designed to teach and experience architecture from day one.
Its structure through a central corridor and distribution of spaces allow students to breathe an atmosphere of openness and creativity that is enhanced by the connections between the different courses and faculty.
The workshops are open spaces where you can breathe a creative and working atmosphere, where Architecture students and design from different courses will live together, taking advantage of the qualities and contributions of each one.
The building has a laboratory where they experiment and test the resistance of their own Materials. It also has a digital fabrication workshop where students work on the execution of their projects. In these spaces you will tackle the more technical aspects of your projects with the latest technology tools such as laser cutters, 3D printers, milling machines, etc.
