WE IDENTIFY THE RIGHT PROBLEM

The quality of a project is defined by the decisions that make it inevitable. Our work is to identify the right problem before it becomes a mistake.

To do that, we analyze the context, existing conditions, and those that are not yet evident. We bring order to complexity. We turn uncertainty into clear decisions. Architecture, at every scale, from building to territory, appears as the precise consequence of that process.

When the right criterion orders everything, a decision stops being a preference: it becomes the only possible one.

Oliverio Najmias Architects is an architecture, urban design, and landscape architecture studio recognized among the leading practices in Buenos Aires and Argentina.

Founded in 2007, the studio works on residential, institutional, cultural, commercial, and urban projects, ranging from private homes to large-scale master plans, both in Argentina and internationally.
The practice is built on a simple conviction: a project is not invented—it is discovered. It becomes clear when it no longer depends on the designer’s will, but responds with precision to what the site demands and the brief requires.
The studio’s work has been published and exhibited across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. It has received Americas Property Awards, been recognized among Architizer’s Top 30 architecture firms, selected by the German publisher Braun for 1000 Architectures of the Americas, and included in Architectural Digest Mexico & Latin America’s AD100 2025, recognizing the region’s 100 most outstanding creative talents.

Every project follows a clear working framework designed to support complex decisions over time. The focus is on structuring the design process around explicit criteria and validating decisions at every stage, reducing risk and minimizing costly revisions.

The studio collaborates with families, developers, companies, municipalities, and public institutions on projects ranging from single-family homes to large-scale master plans, integrating specialized consultants as part of the design team.

At every scale, architecture is understood as more than an object: it is an edge, a sequence, a use, and a system. That is where the non-obvious becomes visible. That is where a project begins to deliver more than it first promised.
