Description of the experience: El Mirador El Duende, located in the Lisbrán estate in La Florida, Risaralda, is the result of a construction laboratory carried out in 2023 as part of an intersemester architecture program. This project focuses on the practical application of architectural concepts in a specific environment, allowing participants to integrate theory and practice in a real context. The choice of Lisbrán and La Florida as the setting responds to the natural and cultural richness of the region, providing an ideal space for experimentation and learning in architecture. This approach promotes holistic training, committed to sustainable development and the preservation of natural and ecological heritage. The Catholic University of Pereira and the Water and Sewerage Company of Pereira, "Aguas y Aguas de Pereira", have established an agreement called "Let's Live the Basin". This program aims to promote environmental education and the preservation of natural resources in the Otún River Basin. Both entities combine their efforts, and technical, human, logistical, and financial resources to carry out joint environmental education strategies. They seek to promote governance in this area, involving diverse population groups related to local development. This project contributes to strengthening environmental governance and facilitates awareness-raising activities and the study of the ecosystem habitat, as well as protection processes in the upper and middle basin of the Otún River in Risaralda.

La Elita is a single-family housing project located in a rural area near the city of Pereira on the road that connects with Armenia, at an altitude of 1411 meters above sea level.
