Casa Rio by bracamonteyerba Preserves Pre-Existing Pool on Irregular Plot in 2026 Residential Project

A 250 m² residential project named Casa Rio, designed by the architecture studio bracamonteyerba, is scheduled for completion in 2026. The project's principal architects are Javier Bracamonte and Gonzalo Yerba, with Maite Alvarenga forming part of the design team. Photography of the work is credited to Fernando Schapochnik. Curated by Valentina Díaz, the project appears in the residential architecture, houses, and residential interiors categories. According to the description submitted by the project team, the house occupies a site of irregular geometry. Following the demolition of a previous dwelling, a pre-existing swimming pool was the sole surviving trace retained on the plot, and it became the organizing footprint around which the new construction was conceived. The architects' decision to preserve the pool rather than clear the site establishes the existing element as the project's generative reference point. An original English-language version of the project description is available for readers.
