MSGSSV

What MSGSSV does

MSGSSV (Estudio Manteola, Sánchez Gómez, Santos, Solsona, Salaberry, Vinson Arquitectos) is a privately held Argentine architecture firm headquartered at Paraguay 610, 3rd Floor, Buenos Aires, with origins dating to 1956 and formal partnership establishment in 1966. The firm delivers a multi-disciplinary practice spanning four core service lines — architecture, interior design, urban planning, and product design — supplemented by three add-on modules covering facilities management consulting, construction management, and promotion/marketing materials. Service delivery follows the full project lifecycle from preliminary studies and schematic design through construction documentation, engineering coordination, bidding, contractor selection, construction supervision, and project management.

The firm serves corporate, institutional, residential, hospitality, and government clients through project-based professional services engagements. Disclosed marquee clients include Coca-Cola (corporate headquarters), Banco Ciudad de Buenos Aires (headquarters and branch remodeling), Goethe Schule, the Ministerios de Paraguay (government offices), Forum Alcorta (mixed-use tower), Alvear Art Hotel, PROCREAR (federal large-scale housing program), and Ecoparque Interactivo (urban/ecological park). Go-to-market combines direct enterprise commissions with a competition-driven acquisition channel — the firm has won or placed in national and international architecture competitions since 1957 — augmented by exhibition-driven reputation building at venues including MoMA, the Venice Biennale, and the Paris Biennale.

The partnership is composed of founding-era partners Flora Manteola, Justo Solsona, Javier Sánchez Gómez, and Josefina Santos (recently retired), plus later additions Damián Vinson, Diego Solsona (2015), and Alberto Peluso (2016). All senior partners are University of Buenos Aires architecture graduates, several holding Lifetime Achievement Awards from the Sociedad Central de Arquitectos and Professor Emeritus positions at UBA. Revenue is generated entirely through project-based professional services fees with no disclosed pricing model, subscription component, or external investment; the firm operates as an independent partnership without institutional or venture capital backing.
