BALSA CROSETTO PIAZZI is an architectural practice based in Córdoba, Argentina, and Boston, USA. Established in 2015, it is led by Juan Manuel Balsa, Rocío Crosetto Brizzio and Leandro Piazzi.

The studio’s inquiry centers on architecture’s material realm and its capacity to reshape reality through building. Each commission is treated as a platform that orchestrates the cycles of materials, people, ecologies, knowledge, and resources involved in construction. For Balsa Crosetto Piazzi, projects are opportunities to redesign and deconstruct entrenched conditions, fostering alternative construction methods and production logics.

Notable recognition includes the Architectural League of New York Prize 2025, Short‐listing for the Lisbon Triennale Debut Award 2025, and selection as Argentina’s representative at the Latin American Architecture Biennial (BAL 2025). The office has also won first prizes for the restoration of Banco Nación’s headquarters in Buenos Aires, Plaza Manuel Belgrano in Córdoba, and the IX BIAU Pavilion in Rosario. Its work has been exhibited at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2023 and 2025, the Ibero‐American Architecture Biennial, Chicago Architecture Biennial,  and Madrid’s Colegio de Arquitectos (COAM), among others.
 
Balsa Crosetto Piazzi has taught studios and seminars at institutions including MIT, Columbia GSAPP, RISD, Virginia Tech, RPI, Syracuse University, IUAV Venice, Universidad Andres Bello, Universidad Torcuato Di Tella, and Universidad Nacional Córdoba.
