THESIS- CULTURAL CITADEL FOR IBAGUÉ TOLIMA

The proposal is taken under a systemic city model where a vision of a diverse, fun and walkable city is created.

For the thesis, I developed an urban renewal model for the downtown area, where I proposed a cultural citadel under a parametric model of pixilation, seeking to create a new urban landscape where culture and nature prevail. 

The project seeks to know in depth the true machinery that led Ibagué in 1909 to found the first musical conservatory in Colombia. And it finds its answer in culture and tourism. The proposal arises from the current need to remove the bus terminal from the city center, where a lot of more than 30,000 sqm will remain unused. In this, a cultural center is proposed where pilot plans for bicycles are implemented, parks in each block, a new transportation system, commerce at different levels, and street musical plazas every two blocks. the proposal arises within the mixture of cultural heritage and a new complex and inclusive urban structure.

After the downtown masterplan I proposed the creation of the cultural citadel Amina Melendro. in which the program goes from a music school and auditoriums to hotels , housing and commerce.

A rational volumetry was created with the city’s main axes, which afterwards was worked with Grasshopper and with an OcTree algorithm and through populating the geometry of the original volume, it was possible to create a new diverse, resilient and aesthetic diverse scenario that will give the city a new face for 2050
