Argentine architect Karina Kreth took a major detour on her path to her current profession. “When I was at university studying architecture,” she reveals, “I started working as an art director for films”—a job she’d keep for 15 years. That career trajectory informs her multidisciplinary practice, Estudio Karina Kreth, founded in 2009, to this day. “Now, when I work with clients,” she continues, “I talk to them about creating a script and a choreography for their house and the way they want to live.”
Kreth’s cinematic approach shines through her latest project, a residence in San Isidro, on the outskirts of Buenos Aires. The restrained yet highly detailed design emphasizes negative space, with sculptural elements and focused moments of color that offer a stage set for life to unfold.
