This competition has regarded the extension (and urban connections) of the existent Santa Fé Hospital in Bogotá.

The guidelines required the construction of an autonomous and isolated building.
Our strategy was to imagine this building as a bridge between the pre-existent parts of the building, with the power to re-arrange the hospital functioning system. The comprehension of the metropolitan scale was fundamental while trying to answer the competition requests with an integral architectonical gesture.

Our project included a space for rearing butterflies, an essential tool in helping the patients in their healing process.
