    Bank Headquarters Expansion / Heritage Integration
    First Prize — Private Competition -  Under construction
    Córdoba, Argentina

    Located within the buffer area of the Jesuit Block of Córdoba, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the project proposes the consolidation and enhancement of a block of high heritage value.

    The New Bancor Business Centre is conceived as a careful articulation between historical architecture and contemporary intervention. Rather than competing with the existing urban fabric, the proposal seeks to complete the block as a single integrated ensemble, recognising the value of each architectural layer.

    The project works through continuity, proportion and material presence, allowing the new building to participate in the life of the heritage context while maintaining a clear contemporary identity. The corner becomes a point of encounter between memory, institution and city.
