Medellin Riverfront Design
URBAN CURRENT[S]
A conceptual framework for the development of the city of Medellin
A river, by definition, refers to movement. Only if we interpret the Medellin River area as a single geographic entity composed of natural elements (fauna and flora) and artificial (history, culture, mobility) do we understand that the opportunity presented by this call goes beyond the area defined for the contest.
La Calera Chapel, Bogotá
Design: Daniel Bonilla Arquitectos

La Calera Chapel, Bogotá, Colombia – added 9 Jan 2013
This chapel building has a basic geometry that tries to alter the territory as little as possible. It uses the natural features of the environment, the wind and the light, to create an essential harmony. The chapel is designed to open to the outside to allow worshipers to gather in mass, this architectural design appeases both small private groups and large public functions.
Los Nogales School Buildings, Bogotá
Design: Daniel Bonilla Arquitectos

Los Nogales School Buildings – added 2 Jan 2013
Los Nogales School’s Chapel, is conceived based on human life’s dualities. A pure and elemental prism represents the pureness, the essential and the harmony. The various volumes and cracks that this prism suffers represent the spiritual sense in human lives, therefore harmony’s alterations.

Bogotá Chamber Commerce – added 28 Dec 2012
The building design celebrates the collective value of the program to the city, opening the ground floor space to the public, with a diagonal pass through the building. The tilted first floor plan generates an interesting dynamic to that of the traditional platform space.

Bogotá International Convention Center
The Cerros Orientales and Monserrate are defining features of landscape in Colombia and Bogotá’s cityscape. As structuring elements of the city, they exist as the beautiful background against which unfold the lives of the inhabitants of Bogotá. Cradled between the mountains and the river, this stunning landscape gives the city its unique identity.
