Location: Betania Period: 2017 - 1
The main action that wants to be designed in the batch, is about moving the important caracteristics of the context, to make it look like a recopilation of the views that you can have walking arround the town. The importance of a Cultural House in a town like Betania, specially in a Town from Antioquia (Colombia), is the people that will use it. To design this project the arquitect had to understood in first place the desire of the town people, asking about what they needed? or what is more important for them to be taught in a cultural house. That kind of questions gave clues for the design of the project specially the main use there. Being a project that takes part of an existing batch, the project seeks to attract the largest number of people, who are invited to use this space that becomes an open space for all public in the town, integrating with the municipal swimming pool, which is one of the main spaces for entertainment in Betania. This place will become not only an important place for turism but also for the pople from the near rural areas.

Location: Betania Period: 2017 - 1
The first time that the Visit to Betania was made, It was easy to realise tat the town can be readed as a secuency of plans that show different looks with every turn you take. This is the premise of design, build a project that can be readed as the town, with different scenaries ans places with every turn or stair that you take. This is the reason why the project is designed by layers each of them has a differect function and represent different characteristics of Betania. When you walk arround Betania, You can see nature and Green everywhere. This is what the projct wants to take the most from the context of the town. All the classrooms have a look to a green area that has space to enjoy ans stay there for a while. The House of culture is focused on the cultural practices of the town like dance, tradicional music and paint.

The Cultural House is a place where the different uses get diveded by each building. All the project has Five buildings that have uses like library, auditorium, dance, music, art, etc. The five buildings have a big interaction with the empty part of the lot, that is used as a free space for sculptures and outdoor auditorium. The main idea for the design of this project is the fragmentation of the volum to create different kind of building that has a particulary use that is the clue for the location in the lot and the relation with the empty speace. The way the project is located in the context (La Playa, Medellin), give to the design an important clue that integrate the interactions and the activities that have place near to the Downtown of the city.
