Entry Description

The Universidad Externado de Colombia as a part of its campus expansion ask us for the interior design and construction of three specific areas, an information student center (CISE-Centro de Información y Soluciones al Estudiante), a café & library and a new cafeteria as central points of the new experience that they want to encourage between academic community, visitors and physical environments.
The premises for this project were “tranquility and attractively youthful” and once you are inside, you can see all of this. It is an open doors project designed to foster curiosity and creativity.
