Edificio CHACOFI, Modernist office building in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Edificio CHACOFI is a 26-story office building located in central Buenos Aires. Its facade displays strong geometric patterns with continuous vertical lines and extensive glass surfaces that allow natural light throughout the floors.
This structure was built in the late 20th century during a transformative period for the city's commercial architecture. The era brought international design approaches into Buenos Aires office buildings, shifting away from earlier styles.
This structure shaped how office workers in the city experience their daily environment, with its open floor plans and abundant natural light through large windows. The design approach became a model for other commercial buildings in Buenos Aires.
The building operates with six elevators to move between the office levels. The main entrance is conveniently located at street level in the central business district, making it accessible from the surrounding streets.
The architect behind this design, Mario Roberto Álvarez, was a major figure in shaping modern South American architecture. His work extended far beyond this single structure, influencing how the entire city approached commercial building design.
