LOS PILETONES DAYCARE, ARGENTINA


This project was part of Basic Initiative's Argentina Program, a multi-year project that engaged students from Portland State University, University of Texas Austin, and MIT in a development program for an informal settlement – Los Piletones – in the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The aim of the project was to design and partially build a children’s day care center which would allow mothers in the community to pursue work and an education, and manage their lives.
