Ariel Jacubovich Oficina de Arquitectura: Modes of Making in Buenos Aires

architecture-design · 2026-05-08

Founded in 2004 in Buenos Aires, Ariel Jacubovich Oficina de Arquitectura develops housing and public space projects through a practice that articulates materiality, organizational systems, and territorial contexts. The studio organizes its production into distinct 'Modes of Making.' 'Arquitectura Asamblearia' works with social and political organizations, incorporating collective processes into spatial construction. 'De Entrecasa' focuses on transforming individual homes from a domestic scale. In collective housing, the 'Figuras Lúdicas' series—Puzzle Homes, Tetris Homes, Block, and Cubik—proposes alternatives to the typological repetition typical of the real estate market. 'Dispositivos Temporales' explores ephemeral architectures linked to art fairs and exhibitions. Ariel Jacubovich has also taught at the university level.
