Abstract

Around the architect Eduardo Sacriste (1905-1999), a noted scholar of vault architecture and construction, a prolific generation of architects emerged in Argentina in the middle decades of the twentieth century. Many of them designed buildings covered with tile vaults, or, in some cases, with different variations on this system. Most of the experiences they carried out are collected in Viviendas con bóvedas, a detailed study directed by Sacriste in the late 70s. The interest of these buildings lies both in the use of classic tile vaulting and the evolution of this system to new variants, some of great interest. Most of these variants, which were designed at the time for a particular area, have transcended, however, its local condition: the legacy of Sacriste's generation is clear, at present, not only in some recent attempts to recuperate tile construction, but in numerous international projects of lightweight vault construction.
