Herreros Arquitectos in collaboration with Daniel Bermudez,
were recently awarded the design of the Centro Internacional de
Convencions de Bogota. Beating some of the world’s most prestigious
architects, Zaha Hadid, David Chipperfield, Rem Koolhaas, Diller &
Scofidio, Snøhetta, and Dominique Perrault, the winning design is
defined as an urban experience, in which its inhabitants and strangers
will come together to share their common interest in knowledge,
innovation and the strength of civil society. Aspiring to obtain the
Gold-status LEED certificate the new 70,000 sqm Centro Internacional de
Convencions de Bogota will be the maximum exponent of Colombia’s ability
to apply state-of-the-art technology as well as of the country’s
commitment to the environment
An exhibition devoted to Herreros Architectos’ recent work is currently on display at the ROM for Kunst og Arkitektur Gallery in Oslo.
