HERITAGE CENTRE OF MEDELLIN Directed by: Arch. Javier Castaneda; Arch. Mag. Javier Soto; Arch. Manuel A. Ortega F. Universidad Nacional de Colombia, 2020.
The project takes centralities and existing deterioration in the centre of Medellín. With this, it proposes generating new milestones that respond to the practical and densifying needs of the site. Real and contemporary initiatives that are currently carried out of a cultural nature are promoted. It consists of a building that reflects the dimension of the void that it adopts, the Parque Bolívar. With a special emphasis on heritage, the wealth of cultural spaces in the city is rescued and they are invited to be part of the project. • Revitalize the center with leisure and cultural programs, to generate greater belonging. • Connect with other spaces that share the same vocation. • The building has six premises: • High-rise building. • Flexible spaces (not modular). • Promenade in the vertical circulation. • Alternative structure, specific to each level. • Façade that responds to bioclimatic. • 24-hour life-giving programmes.
