English description provided by the architects.
The rural pircas, so characteristic of the mountain landscape of Córdoba, have the function of enclosing or limiting a piece of land.
In this case, they delimit a space of use, some ensuite rooms as an expansion of a hotel.
The place in question corresponds to the former summer stay of former Argentine president J.A. Roca transformed into a hotel.
Located north of the city of Córdoba and composed of a group of 19th century buildings, a fantastic park with leafy trees - designed by Carlos Thays - and a majestic artificial lake.
The new "suites" incorporate historical and landscape references to codify them in a project according to their time and place.
The project, 7 wide parallel stone walls spaced 5 meters apart that support a wooden roof inclined to a water generating rooms inside.
These walls and ceilings adapt to the natural preexistence of trees and topography until their precise location is found in the place.
Each room is composed of a front entrance gallery, a bedroom, a light and ventilation patio, and a wet core - bathroom, bathroom and shower.
The patio, in addition to cross ventilation and lighting, functions as a separator between the living space and the bathroom, and the dividing walls allow storage and facilities to be housed inside.
The use of stone and wood, and the use of galleries and patios refer to the rural constructions of the area.
