The Comprehensive Well-being Plan emerged in the middle of the Ad Portas Building as the conclusion to a qualitative anthropological study undertaken by Beatriz Turbay on the La Sabana campus. We prepared a master plan for the civic space and set about building a campus to suit students’ needs. To achieve this, we laid out a system of pergolas that accompanies the façades, plazas and walkways, and structures the footpath network of the community. The furnishings were meticulously designed to provide maximum comfort. This concept, which also balances landscape and infrastructure values, also includes the new classrooms, which function both as venues for teaching and open and spontaneous civic spaces. In the future, the planting of the campus will resemble that of a botanic garden.
