Madera, ritmo estructural y una cubierta que protege y define el espacio. La propuesta de Ana Rascovsky para Ochoalcubo José Ignacio explora una forma de habitar abierta, cálida y profundamente vinculada al entorno natural.

HISTORY
In 2025, Buenos Aires had fifty-seven informal settlements—without land titles or access to basic services. Two parallel models of urban life coexisted: the formal city, governed by politics and speculation, and an informal one, self-managed, fragmented, and opportunistic.
Over time, political tolerance for informality grew. A lack of state control, the potential for self-construction, and the ability to build without land ownership enabled this model to spread rapidly.
Fueled by environmental chaos and human resourcefulness, the Informal City overtook the old one. What remains of the historical city survives within so-called “amenity wards”: isolated enclaves surrounded by double walls where people live confined by social fear.
In a classical liberal gesture, the city ended up imitating the slum.

informal Flood
Chicago Architectural Biennale, 2025.
@flor_ness@kommerswender@chicagoarchitecturebiennial
This project imagines Buenos Aires in 2075, transformed by climate collapse and the decay of formal planning. As rising heat, flooding, and sea levels render the ground floor uninhabitable, a new city takes shape above: elevated, light, and improvised. With minimal state oversight, residents reclaim the urban fabric. They build modular homes in the air, negotiating shared airspace through informal agreements between neighbors. Suspended platforms and community hubs sustain daily life, while co-modules—rented by the hour and easily reconfigurable—serve those excluded from the old formal city. In this imagined future, informality is not a sign of marginalization, but a form of urban intelligence: adaptive, collaborative, and resilient. It offers a creative model of how cities could resist—and evolve—in the face of environmental and political uncertainty.

Informal Flood/ Inundacion Informal: Bienal de arquitectura de Chicago, 2025. @flor_ness@kommerswender@chicagoarchitecturebiennial
Este proyecto imagina a Buenos Aires en el año 2075, transformada por el colapso climático y el decaimiento de la planificación formal. A medida que el aumento del calor, las inundaciones y el nivel del mar vuelven inhabitable la planta baja, una nueva ciudad se forma en lo alto: elevada, liviana e improvisada. Con una supervisión estatal mínima, los habitantes recuperan el tejido urbano. Construyen viviendas modulares en el aire, negociando el espacio aéreo compartido mediante acuerdos informales entre vecinos. Plataformas suspendidas y núcleos comunitarios sostienen la vida cotidiana, mientras que los co-módulos-alquilados por hora y fácilmente reconfigurables-sirven a quienes quedaron excluidos de la antigua ciudad formal. En este futuro imaginado, la informalidad no es un signo de marginalidad, sino una forma de inteligencia urbana: adaptativa, colaborativa y resiliente. Ofrece un modelo creativo de cómo las ciudades podrían resistir- y evolucionar-frente a la incertidumbre ambiental y política.
