Centro Metropolitano de Diseño, Design innovation center in Barracas, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The Centro Metropolitano de Diseño is a design center in Barracas, Buenos Aires, organized across multiple floors with distinct functional areas. It provides space for exhibitions, hands-on workshops, and retail sales of design products.

The complex combines the former Mercado de Pescado, a fish market from 1831, with the neighbouring building known as "El Pescadito", built in the first third of the 20th century. Both were remodelled by architect Paulo Gastón Flores, winner of the 2002 national competition, and reopened in 2001; the city legislature declared the ensemble Área de Protección Histórica Nº 7 in 2007.

The complex includes a site museum and a neighborhood interpretation center, and its name comes from the former Mercado de Pescado and the adjoining "El Pescadito" building. A children's play library and open temporary exhibitions make it a public space, not only a design facility.

The CMD occupies two recycled buildings, the former Mercado de Pescado and El Pescadito, in Barracas. The complex offers 3,000 m² of exhibition space, a 250-seat auditorium, a specialized library, a site museum, a FabLab, and a children's playroom. Temporary exhibitions are open to the public.

The center contains a technological laboratory where entrepreneurs and designers transform concepts into physical products using modern manufacturing equipment. This facility is available to both startups and established creative professionals.
