Matta Sur Community Health Center / Luis Vidal + Arquitectos

The city that takes good care of its cultural heritage is the city that listens to its past without neglecting its future. This delicate balance between memory and contemporaneity is what a perdurable architecture, committed to contributing to society, provides. Those are the cornerstones for the Matta Sur Complex. And this is Luis Vidal + architects approach to what responsible design means: A contribution to the social dialogue with an environmental commitment. The result is an unprecedented building refurbishment that gives back to the city of Santiago de Chile one of its most iconic constructions. Past, present, and future merge in a building that combines modernity with tradition, technology with sustainability, innovation with respect for the city’s heritage.
