POZ North Public Space Master Plan Feasibility Bogota, DC Urban Development Institute of Bogota Professional work - Architect Contractor 2010
Tree Species - Landscape Identity [16]
The POZ North Master Plan was developed by the Urban Development Institute to plan Bogota’s expansion towards the north. The project seeks to avoid the trend of uncontrolled growth that has been a constant in the city, as this area represents the last piece of land left for expansion within the city limits. The feasibility study consisted in the pre-design and budget of the main and secondary roads of the area, as well as the public space of the project. The design was done following all the city’s current public space regulations. All the work was done in group, inside the projects office of the Urban Development Institute. My contribution was mostly concerned with the landscape design of the project. The project’s design sought to articulate the main ecological structure of the city, and to give each road an identity through tree species and landscape elements.
