This 10,000 m<sup>2<\/sup> renovation project, nestled beside a historic site, has clinched first place in a prestigious competition. Tasked with revitalizing a building adjacent to a landmark, our team embraced the challenge with enthusiasm. The mandate was clear: infuse the renovation with an Art Deco aesthetic, a style known for its rich history and timeless elegance. Our design weaves this aesthetic throughout, harmonizing with the original architecture while introducing a modern function. The building&#8217;s new program includes office spaces, co-working areas, and retail offerings, catering to a diverse array of needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"677\" src=\"https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Finished-building-1024x677.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-191\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Finished-building-1024x677.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Finished-building-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Finished-building-768x508.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Finished-building-1536x1016.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Finished-building-2048x1354.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Finished-building-1870x1237.jpg 1870w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Finished-building-400x265.jpg 400w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Finished-building-800x529.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Architectural Innovation<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p> Originally a 10-story structure characterized by an asymmetric grid and varying heights, the building presented a unique canvas. Our approach mirrored the program&#8217;s diversity in the facade&#8217;s redesign, breathing new life into the structure. With two floors dedicated to retail, a floor for co-working spaces, and several levels for traditional office use, the building&#8217;s exterior now reflects its internal dynamism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"746\" src=\"https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/existing-building-1024x746.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-190\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/existing-building-1024x746.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/existing-building-300x218.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/existing-building-768x559.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/existing-building-1536x1119.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/existing-building-2048x1491.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/existing-building-1870x1362.jpg 1870w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/existing-building-400x291.jpg 400w, https:\/\/hidalgoeduardo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/existing-building-800x583.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-gray-color\">before rennovation<\/mark><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Interior Elegance<\/strong> <\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Inside, our vision was to craft spaces that resonate with the building\u2019s Art Deco shell.
