Its inspiration in traditional dwellings leads to a morphological result that is adaptable to the Colombian regions that refer to, making its deployment less unfamiliar even in a local plaza, where it naturally distinguishes and dignifies the conditions that inspired it.

The relationship of the exterior to the interior is unhurried, which provides a welcoming transition toward the moving content, exhibited in spatiality and walkthrough that invites reflection. The formwork of the facade facilitates ventilation and likewise provides visual permeability that captures the curiosity of passerby, making them part as an observer.
