◆ El Proyecto◆ The Project

Este proyecto presenta una cúpula irregular cuidadosamente diseñada para integrarse de manera natural con su entorno, fomentando una conexión armónica con el sitio y su vegetación. Mediante el uso de materiales locales y reciclados, junto con innovadores sistemas de tratamiento de aguas residuales desarrollados en colaboración con organismos naturales, el diseño minimiza el consumo de recursos, reduce costos y resalta la relación simbiótica entre el ser humano y el medio ambiente.

This project features an irregular dome carefully designed to blend naturally with its surroundings, fostering a harmonious connection with the site and its vegetation. By using local and recycled materials, along with innovative wastewater treatment systems developed in collaboration with natural organisms, the design minimizes resource consumption, reduces costs, and highlights the symbiotic relationship between humans and the environment.

La estructura utiliza tierra compactada, madera local y fibras naturales. El diseño de la cubierta imita la geometría de los nidos de aves del páramo local, generando una forma que funciona tanto como refugio humano como hábitat para otras especies.

A shell-like structure — built primarily from earth, locally sourced wood, and glass — became the architectural response. Through close collaboration with biologists, the internal temperature and humidity were carefully regulated to meet the animals' needs. As a result, the living conditions and well-being of these creatures were significantly improved.
