Faculty of Sciences - Pontifical Xavierian University / taller de arquitectura de bogotá

Valeria Silva — Thu, 01 Jan 2026 03:00:00 +0000

The design of the new Faculty of Sciences at the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana faced unique challenges, such as achieving a harmonious balance with the historic Pablo VI building, activating the urban edge of Carrera Séptima, and coherently articulating the campus. The comprehensive project was structured around three fundamental components: A) A linear platform that establishes a human-scale front along Carrera Séptima, B) A tall tower with a broad and fluid base, defining a new iconic entrance to the campus, and C) An extensive landscape intervention and collective spaces that serve as a connector between different areas of the campus.

Andreas Luco — Wed, 17 Dec 2025 10:00:00 +0000

The classroom building Block D at the Universidad Industrial de Santander is located in the municipality of El Socorro, in the department of Santander. It is part of the master plan for the Bicentennial Campus, situated east of the urban core. The master plan establishes a central circulation axis that articulates a series of inclined volumes arranged perpendicularly to the terrain, adapting to the site's topography.

Sapiencia Tower / taller de arquitectura de bogotá

Valeria Silva — Mon, 15 Dec 2025 07:00:00 +0000

This project emerged from the 2008–2028 Infrastructure Master Plan to serve the Continuing Education and Graduate Studies division. Consequently, its creation responds to the need for a secondary location in the north of the city for extension students, situated in an area of Bogota experiencing significant corporate and residential growth. The property where the project is located faces a major, wide-section primary artery (100 meters) with a heavy, constant flow of vehicles. Therefore, the building was designed to address two main premises: to capitalize on a volume that is perceived differently depending on the direction and speed of approach, and to humanize the challenging urban condition by implementing an entrance balcony-garden on the second floor, turning entry into the building into an enjoyable experience.

Gimnasio Los Nogales / Taller de Arquitectura de Bogotá

Pilar Caballero — Fri, 12 Dec 2025 10:00:00 +0000

The Los Nogales School gymnasium project involves retrofitting, updating, and expanding the existing multipurpose building to bring it up to current technical and sports standards. Since it is located on a school campus developed over three decades, special value is placed on preserving the scale and the nature of the materials as a fundamental design element.

Valentina Díaz — Wed, 10 Dec 2025 03:00:00 +0000

Located at the main entrance to the central campus of the Industrial University of Santander, the Humanities Building stands as a key element in the institution's master plan. Its design is based on a structure of stacked lines in architectural concrete, which not only defines an emblematic welcoming image but also provides spaces for academic expansion.

Compensar – Comprehensive Wellness Center for the Elderly / taller de arquitectura de bogotá

Andreas Luco — Tue, 09 Dec 2025 10:00:00 +0000

The project connects directly to the park network of the Simón Bolívar Metropolitan Park, creating an ecological bridge for local flora and fauna and serving as a support axis for the ecosystem that exists between the eastern hills and the El Salitre wetland. The first floor is a biome where ecological connectivity is restored through an ecosystem composed of savanna forest and wetland, promoting the life of local fauna and a diverse range of plant species of various sizes.

Los Nogales Preschool / taller de arquitectura de bogotá

Valentina Díaz — Fri, 05 Dec 2025 14:30:00 +0000

The preschool is a two-level building that originates from a configuration of three autonomous bars organized in a triangular shape, allowing for three connections to the campus: one for entry, another leading to the library, and the third toward the Park of Wonder or preschool park. The architecture is created with organic shapes that aim to avoid straight edges in favor of curves, giving fluidity to the space.

Central University / taller de arquitectura de bogotá + Taller Architects

Pilar Caballero — Thu, 15 Dec 2022 16:00:00 +0000

The proposed building is the first stage of a series of recommended interventions within the master plan proposal developed earlier for the University. The project was based on an urban premise that intended to improve the interaction of the university's campus with the immediate surroundings. As a result, a public square that defines the main connectivity axis was envisioned, to articulate not only the proposed building, but also the rest of the campus inscribed within the urban block, and the city.

Macarena 626 Office Building / taller de arquitectura de bogotá

Andreas Luco — Mon, 08 Feb 2021 16:00:00 +0000

Macarena 626 is located among buildings of significant architectonic value in a privileged area of the city. The building was conceived through the understanding of the morphology and materials of its surroundings. The instinctive circular first sketch of the project, was then modified along the design process, to become a polygonal floor plan, made up of four main planes.

Building 8111 / taller de arquitectura de bogotá

Daniel Tapia — Tue, 02 Jul 2019 17:00:00 +0000

In the particular case of 8111, we were motivated by the idea of testing the fusion of structure and architecture, where the diagrid type structural system, allowed the structure to be the expression of the building. The efficiency of the diagrid interpreted as a mesh is closely linked to its application at the perimeter of the building, in such a way that becomes the façade and visible image of the architecture. A singular and unique image was achieved, as it distances itself from the traditional solution of porticoes.

Arts Center / taller de arquitectura de bogotá

Daniel Tapia — Fri, 12 Oct 2018 19:00:00 +0000

The building has an interesting dual relationship, the first floor is used for music and dance, while the second floor accommodates plastic arts. The two levels (and therefore the programmatic areas) are linked by a generous open-air (covered) grand staircase-hall-gallery which articulates and simultaneously acts as a meeting, performance and exhibition space.

San José Preschool / taller de arquitectura de bogotá

Rayen Sagredo — Tue, 04 Sep 2018 09:00:00 +0000

The project was formulated as a series of isolated volumes, a village of knowledge that takes the organic character of the natural context of the place and the “small scale” of its users, (children between the ages of 4 to 6).

Rochester School / Daniel Bonilla Arquitectos

Daniel Tapia — Tue, 16 May 2017 13:00:00 +0000

With approximately 16000m² of buildings and 21000m² of exteriors and landscape design, the Rochester School’s Master Plan aimed for a strategy which reflected its own concept of academic community. Thus, as a premise, the HUBS (grouping system) appeared, looking for an educational model that integrate teachers and students disregarding grades and therefore fading out the traditional hierarchy of school formation.

用棱形建筑围成的哥伦比亚小学 / Daniel Bonilla Arquitectos

Daniel Sánchez — Mon, 01 Feb 2016 14:00:00 +0000

该项目是一个综合的，宽阔的，自治的Anglo 哥伦比亚小学校。是一个纯粹功能的教育建筑，建筑体是由一些相同的体块(教室就是一个基本模块)叠加起来的，这样减少了整体尺寸的大小，并能设计出广泛而多样性的空间，建筑在体块和空隙之间交替变换，也为附近的景观创造出一些特别的价值。

University of Los Andes Public Space and Integrated Care Center / Daniel Bonilla Arquitectos

Igor Fracalossi — Wed, 03 Dec 2014 01:00:00 +0000

More than a building project is a construction operation of urbanism; and although it initially started as the development of an integrated care building for the University, it soon became a project of public space, urban design and integration with the La Candelaria neighboorhood. This was made possible by a joint operation of "public" space and three buildings (Integrated Care Center - CAI, entryway to the eastern sector and coffee area), where the main objective was to seep the public space in between buildings, weaving a new project.
