(D) (healthcare) La Lagunilla

City-centric architecture: Meeting needs, enriching the fabric of life.

From the perspective of a resident accustomed to the bustling commerce, it would be unexpected to encounter a place that offers an alternative to the hectic world of the historic Lagunilla neighborhood. They would enter this newly discovered environment with curiosity and a desire to explore. Inside, time would seem to pass more slowly; sunlight would filter differently; and the ambient sounds would lend a heightened sense of reality to the experience. Each resident would come to know and perceive the place in their own unique way, according to their personal taste.

This in-depth site investigation, culminating in an architectural project, is presented in the form of a meticulously researched booklet. It captures the essence of this distinctive space and offers a design proposal aimed at enhancing the lives of its inhabitants.

The research was made in collaboration with Luis Fernando Díaz

I was responsible for the editorial design and layout of the booklet. The project was individually designed.
