Description
Back in the day, Buenos Aires had a lot of money and no much rules for construction. It was a place where young architects from different nations came to experiment and leave their mark. As a result of that, it became a great place to learn about architecture.
Learn with me how to identify different styles like classicism, art nouveau, art déco, modern architecture, etc.; spot ornaments, understand conceptions of space, and materials; while walking through the city centre, entering to some of Buenos Aires architectonic masterpieces, using the Subte, and going through politics and history as well.
