Complejo universitario habitacional mox tunja

Abstract

A proposal is presented for the construction and implementation of a set of university residences for the city of Tunja, which is a need identified for a long time in the capital of the department of Boyacá, being considered as a university city, which year to year receives many students from various regions of the country. Within the proposal, an architectural and urban infrastructure is designed that applies symbolic concepts of the identity of the city, adding sustainability criteria. Likewise, the environmental recovery of a segment of the round of the Jordan River was sought, so that it is linked to the urban area, generating comfortable spaces for the student community that year comes to the city, promoting the performance of various activities and integrating them with academic life in the same sector. The project is in the north of the city because there is a greater concentration of student housing since a large part of the higher education institutions based in Tunja are located in this area. The above allows revitalizing the sector, establishing an urban renewal in the face of the so-called “dead spaces” (urban silences) that exist within it, and therefore avoiding a dissociation between public and private space, since they are currently unoccupied places which are used as parking lots, wasting the potential of the place, which is why the sector is conducive to developing the project, improving the urban and landscape image of the city. The project seeks for the student community to live a pleasant experience in the midst of public and architectural space, through the University Residences, which satisfies the needs they require in their stay in the city, projecting the sustainability of the project over time.
