Gonzalo Viramonte

Drawing inspiration from the landscapes and small towns encountered during his travels by bicycle across Argentina and Chile, Gonzalo's lens captured the essence of human-scale interactions and architectural details. His fascination with the intricate nuances of urban life eventually led him to explore the streets of Cordoba, his birth city, where he documented its buildings, customs, and unexpected corners with unwavering dedication. Driven by a vision of "specific architecture for common people," Gonzalo embarked on a mission to uncover the beauty in the most ordinary of spaces, challenging the notion that architecture is reserved solely for the elite. His work found recognition in the world of publishing, with several magazine covers showcasing Cordoba's architectural marvels on a national and global stage.

Gravity Held in Stone – Suspended Stone Houses by Paul Dragicevic

Gravity Held in Stone – Suspended Stone Houses by Paul Dragicevic

Suspended Stone Houses by Paul Dragicevic reinterprets local stone construction through two elevated dwellings that appear to hover over the mountainous terrain of Yacanto, Córdoba. Through reinforced concrete, on-site stone, deep galleries, and panoramic openings, the project creates a powerful dialogue between weight, lightness, landscape, and contemporary rural living.

Suspended Stone Houses is a residential complex composed of two single-family homes and a shared swimming pool, completed in 2025 in Yacanto, Córdoba, Argentina. Designed by Paul Dragicevic, the 380 m² project responds directly to a steep mountainous site overlooking the Altas Cumbres, the valley, and the Sierras Chicas. Its defining architectural gesture lies in the use of cantilevered reinforced-concrete slabs and locally sourced stone cladding, creating the impression of heavy volumes floating above the hillside. Rather than occupying the landscape aggressively, the houses reduce their contact with the ground, preserving vegetation and intensifying the relationship between interior life and the surrounding horizon. The result is an architecture of paradox: robust yet delicate, rooted in vernacular memory yet transformed through contemporary structural precision.
