Agua House is an incredible modern property designed by Barrionuevo Sierchuk Arquitectas for a couple without kids, situated in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The home is nestled on a 21,530 square foot (2,000 square meters) site facing the Northeast, looking at the Canal Arias river, in the suburbs of Buenos Aires. It is comprised of 4,840 square feet (450 square meters) of living space, with the ground floor featuring a spacious reception area, that opens and closes by way of very large wooden sliding doors that hides into the walls.

The second floor is comprised of the Master Bedroom and another small bedroom for guests.

Water surrounds the house, which is how the home got its name…… Agua in English means Water. A very large swimming pool crosses the site, and you can see linear ponds of water all around the house.

The house is designed based on two stone walls (made of Laja Neuquen) that interact all over the house. The colour of the stone is the origin of all the color pallet of the house.
