Nestled in the southern extreme of Pinamar County, Kairos House rests on a new small urbanized area consisting of four blocks surrounded by a forest and connected to the city only by a boulevard. Large-sized lots and a restrictive building code secure a balance between human presence and the local flora and fauna.

Tucan House is set on a corner lot in the city of Cariló, a seaside town situated 400 km from Buenos Aires. Due to the vegetation present in the area -large lamberts and elliotis pines - and the distance to the beach and downtown, the place resembles an urbanized forest.
