Projects

Commercial Passages

The project is carried out in the city of Bogota, in the international center, based on the theme "urban renewal and mobility."

Territory as Palimpsest

The project is based on the need to create a regional development plan for the mid-Magdalena area (from La Dorada to Girardot), with the city of Honda Tolima as its epicenter.

La Pedrera: Community Reinsertion

This is a joint project between the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana and the Universidad Iberoamericana in Mexico City. The theme that was proposed to be developed was "challenges and opportunities of informal settlements," so the area of intervention that was determined was "San Isidro Patios," a sector belonging to the town of Chapinero located in the city of Bogota in the eastern hills, next to the road that connects with the municipality of La Calera.

San Carlos Palace: Heritage Adaptation

This project takes place in the city of Bogota (Colombia), in one of the blocks that make up the historic center, where the Palacio de San Carlos is located, in front of the Colon Theater. What is sought with this project is to understand the way in which the block is constituted, how it works, which are its urban relations and those within it, and to see each of the buildings that compose it in order to determine which are the elements that require some kind of transformation.

For this, an evaluation of all these factors is made, which is done from the moment or family to which it belongs (architectural style), understanding its characteristics. On the other hand, to understand if each of the elements behaves as an independent block or as part of the whole, thus generating a rupture or union of the block, all this is necessary to be able to determine the state of consolidation.

Memory Threshold

This is a project that is the continuation of the collaboration between the Universidad Iberoamericana and the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana Bogota. The theme that was proposed to be developed was "challenges and opportunities of informal settlements," as in the La Pedrera project; however, in this case, the project takes place in Mexico City. The study sector is San Mateo Tlatenango, one of the towns that, due to the growth of Mexico City, is now part of its metropolitan area.

Honda, Territory of Living Memory

This project is being carried out in the city of Honda, located in the department of Tolima in Colombia, and aims to generate new urban dynamics in the Arranca-plumas area (the city's old port), based on its urban heritage elements, for the revitalization of historical memory and urban development.
