Sustainable industrial development project to land in Argentina

The architectural project designed by Octavio Acerbo, which is originally filmmaker In addition to being a multi-faceted entrepreneur, this has already been done in Uruguay, Laguna de José Ignacio and in the neighborhood of Santa Mónica. Container houses (container structures) offer a versatile design, in the words of Octavio Acerbo: "They give the builder the opportunity to develop his creativity because one can play with endless possibilities in terms of design and usable materials, while having a positive impact on the environment."

Not only because of the unlimited variability of resources, this type of construction has become a success, but also because of its simplicity and cost, which varies depending on the investment of its owner. The idea was born in 2011, while he was returning from Madrid with the Atlas Container book under his arm and wanted to undertake a construction project, in addition to always having had the ### 39; influence of his father, an important architect from Buenos Aires, and his mother, journalist with a taste that reflects impeccable in the decoration. With Polish, Italian and Uruguayan nationality in his family tree, he chose Uruguay to start his project because he spent all his life there and because the natural landscape that he proposed seemed ideal for this eco-sustainable business.

Currently he has already built three houses and the fourth, its more ambitious design: a house of twelve containers in total, number chosen by the twelve apostles, with an area of ​​360 m2 (equal to the surface of the Earth), gazebo with jacuzzi, pool also made with a container green roof, solar panels, pool also made with a container and overlooking the lagoon of José Ignacio.

Interest in these homes has reached Miami, but Currently, the new challenge for sustainable industrial development is in the party Cañuelas, Buenos Aires. On an estate that crosses a stream, the idea is to build an eco-sustainable neighborhood, which would be a novelty for Argentina and the South American countries. This planning aims to promote a healthy lifestyle but does not neglect certain luxuries, even if everything will be made from industrial materials such as the clubhouse, built by an aircraft hangar with Spa. But what will have the most impact will certainly be homes built with rural silos, designed with the goal that their occupants interact with the architecture as much as with the natural landscape. Green roofs, which are very important in the rainwater harvesting system, will not fail, as will solar panels.
