Just a few blocks from Saavedra Park, northwest of Buenos Aires, lies Zapiola, an office project designed by Lucila and Federico Grizzo, lead architects at Grizzo Studio. Conceived as a complete project, the project addresses not only the organization of the spatial and functional logic, but also the design of all the interior furnishings.

Through a carefully designed, homogeneous color palette that blends respectfully with the existing building, the offices located at 4200 Zapiola Street give a new character to the company they house.

Within 240 m², the Grizzo Studio team proposes an integrated layout of the different work areas, avoiding visual barriers. In this way, the various meeting rooms, the dining room, and the various individual workstations, along with the break areas, adapt to the diverse needs that may arise.

The uniformity of the proposed furniture is complemented by the color of the vegetation that integrates the project. The landscaping, uniformity, and flexibility make Zapiola a pleasant workspace, notable for the spaciousness achieved through its various integrated spaces.

Project description by Grizzo Studio

For this 240m² office project, we sought to create the greatest possible spaciousness through an integrated space without visual barriers. From the design of all the furniture, we achieved a new identity for the company, with specific solutions for each sector according to its different needs, such as meeting rooms, a dining room, individual workstations, and break areas.

We designed everything from the armchairs and desks to the lighting fixtures, all within a palette that fits the existing building and allows the landscaping we proposed for the entire interior to stand out, bringing color and life to the entire space, especially as the workstations move away from the exterior walls and lose direct connection with the vegetation of the street and the internal courtyard.

Grizzo Arquitectos is an architecture practice founded in 2020 by architects and siblings Lucila and Federico Grizzo in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

This studio-workshop is developed as an analytical investigation in constant search to understand and respond through experiences to the needs of each assignment, proposing a new way of living, of relating to light, materiality, nature and spatiality, always trying to awaken emotions that go beyond mere functionality.

The studio has the premise of facing each project as an opportunity for exploration that feeds back to the workshop, that inspires and connects with the next, under a stimulating atmosphere, in an environment of free thought where an intuitive, practical and tactile journey reveals the design rules of each project, which appear in all its scales, even in the most meticulous details, thus achieving unique pieces that reach all the senses in each assignment.
