For more than a decade, I have worked as an interior designer, helping people create homes that reflect who they are and how they want to live.
Throughout those years, I discovered something unexpected.
The success of a home rarely begins with furniture, finishes, or decoration. It begins much earlier — with choosing the right place.
A beautiful home can be transformed, improved, and personalized. But the relationship between a person and a neighborhood, a building, a street, or a particular sense of place is far more difficult to create.
Living Recoleta was born from that realization.
After years living between Buenos Aires and Lima, buying, renting, renovating, moving, and helping others do the same, I became increasingly interested in the process that happens before design: finding the right home.
Not simply a property, but a place that supports the life someone wishes to build.
Recoleta has become the focus of this project not only because I live here, but because I believe it offers one of the most rewarding ways of experiencing Buenos Aires.
Its architecture, walkability, cultural life and enduring character create a unique sense of place that continues to attract people from around the world.
My approach is simple.
I believe that fewer visits lead to better decisions.
That understanding people is more important than showing properties.
And that finding the right home begins with a conversation.
I look forward to helping you discover Recoleta and, perhaps, find your place within it.
