Description: Taller Comerci is an academic workshop lead by Prof. architect Francesco Comerci, comprising academics, professionals and students from the Faculty of Architecture and Design (FADU) that produced between 2015 and 2016 diverse research projects related to the Modern architecture developed in the city of Montevideo, in particular in the residential neighborhood of Pocitos, a urban and national reference. Pocitos is a pleasant residential neighborhood on the shore of the River Plate to the east of Montevideo that concentrates the largest number of modern high-rise residential seafront buildings. The book "Modern Pocitos" aims to analyze and reflect on the project conditions of the high-rise residential buildings built in the Pocitos area between 1950 and 1960, recognizing the interrelationships between their formal, urban, technical and programmatic dimensions. It is intended to build a record of these modern architectures, using as a methodology visual, project analysis (drawings, diagrams, images, models and digital models) in a catalogue of architectural projects and in a comparative study of selected cases.
