We consider each project on its own terms and develop tailored responses. Learn about our vision and mission.
This project was commissioned by the Chamber of Commerce of Bogotá, along with the University of Los Andes. CAZA worked alongside these two groups to design a multifaceted mixed-use building that would centralize all elements of the music industry along one of the most important avenues in Bogotá. The structure would house offices, recording studios, variously sized event spaces, and the largest outdoor amphitheater in the city, together with a new commercial center, a restored wetland park, and a structured parking facility.

Our approach is strategically driven and informed. Click here to learn about our process.
The architecture and landscape work together to cultivate interchange and connectivity between visitors. The space itself functions as an incubator for creativity by encouraging mixing and crossovers between musicians, users, and editors. The design incorporates energy-efficient systems, modular planning, and principles of metabolic architecture supported by parametric design to create a dynamic, adaptive space attuned to the evolving needs of Bogotá’s creative economy.
