The collaborative project with the University of Valle’s Department of Biology aims to design the Architectural Project for the Biological and Research Station on the Meléndez campus. This institution centers on research, instruction, and expanded studies, enriching knowledge of ecosystems and life-sustaining resources. Its goal is to inspire conservation, environmental research, and biosphere connections among researchers, professionals, students, and nature enthusiasts. Emphasizing unconventional education, the Biological Station highlights the preservation and appreciation of natural and cultural contexts. Through engaging, sustainable activities, it boosts public awareness. The project incorporates these principles, facilitating research, education, recreation, and interactivity. It offers an effective approach to cultivating knowledge and ethical resource usage while safeguarding local flora, fauna, and cultural heritage. The architectural program includes administrative and technical spaces, a collections museum, sample-processing labs, education zones, an observatory, outdoor auditoriums, recreation areas, endemic species nurseries, reinterpretation trails, and technical facilities. Ultimately, the project envisions a harmonious blend of research, recreation, and sustainability, enhancing local conditions and minimizing environmental impact.
