Eco Friendly House Renovation Makes Recycled House: trash turned treasure

In a eco friendly renovation that transformed tired 1950s to cutting-edge 21st century, this recycled house in upscale Buenos Aires is for the fashion-conscious and the eco-conscious alike. Quite literally trash turned treasure by Argentinean architects Studio A77, this reused and recycled home contains all the usual suspects: a spacious loft, bedrooms and a central courtyard, topped by a green rooftop patio and pool; and some unusual ones as well: 50 meters of repurposed highway guard rails, and 300 meters of reclaimed scrap metal, wood and windows. It’s pretty impressive, and aesthetically it doesn’t disappoint either. The quirky collection of eclectic pieces combines beautifully for a modern frame of metal and wood, with vast windows that naturally illuminate the space and passively cool it as well. Studio A77
