Housing Studies Amenabar 191 was designed by Amado Cattaneo Goldenhorn Architecture located in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The project starts with the plot and its surrounding contextual situation. The building is the pinnacle of them. The land is bounded by the railroad, street and lot boundary Amenabar. The trace of the path generates a diagonal cut on the back giving irregular geometrical shape.

The urban fabric that comes from Palermo and Colegiales end there. The building is the intersection of all these geometries, is the intermediary between the frame building construction, the track and its surrounding streets. The building becomes the protagonist that gives the corner, is presented as a finish and is composed of two titrations. A block takes the Maximum building height of 9 meters above the official line creating a gap between the side building. The same, contains the services, the core of elevator and stairs.
