Although it is a long-standing publishing house that still exists, this research proposes a periodization that begins with its emergence in 1954 and covers its first ten years. Throughout this period, it dealt almost exclusively with the translation of foreign texts. The hypothesis is that the publishing house participated in the consolidation and institutionalization of modern architecture in Argentina since the mid-1950s, to the extent that it gave visibility and materiality to its discourse.

It also played an active role in the disciplinary shaping through its written and visual discourses as well as its own material construction. Este artículo aborda el estudio de la editorial porteña Infinito, la primera de habla hispana especializada en la edición de textos sobre temas de arquitectura, planeamiento urbano y diseño. Si bien se trata de una editorial de larga data que aún existe, esta investigación propone un recorte temporal que inicia con su surgimiento en 1954 y abarca sus primeros diez años, en los que se dedicó casi exclusivamente a la traducción de textos extranjeros. La hipótesis que se desarrolla es que la editorial participó en la consolidación e institucionalización de la arquitectura moderna en Argentina desde mediados de los años cincuenta, en la medida en que le otorgó visibilidad y materialidad a su discurso. En este sentido, la investigación entiende a Infinito como un producto cultural significativo que resulta ser más que una editorial emergente testigo de lo que sucede en los campos de la arquitectura y el diseño. Es también un protagonista activo en la configuración de dichos campos, tanto desde su discurso –escrito y visual– como desde su misma construcción material.
