Universidad Utamed

The original concept is to create a university campus with one building. The biggest difficulty we found was that it was a building from the beginning of the century, with an architecture clearly oriented to be a big office building, which does not match with the university concept.

We wanted to represent the university essence in all its areas, therefore, the architecture had to support this idea of the search for knowledge and truth, so the proposal is to ‘bare’ the building, leaving its soul in sight, removing all the artifacts and going directly to the concept, search for the truth... Once you have the essence of knowledge, you make that information your own, adapting to it, changing your mind... that's why we wanted to use the ‘curve’ to represent that vital university stage in which you have an ‘explosion’ of ideas, which may even be incompatible, but in that vital moment they make sense.
