The project is located in San Cristóbal, Bogotá, Colombia and its main focus is to provide children of an otherwise deprived of education institutions area, with an adequate environment to grow, learn and develop new skills from an early an age as that of kindergarten.

Although the site is on rugged topography, the building was designed to avoid excessive excavation which in turn supplies children with large spaces that allows them to move freely. Another important contribution is the bridge that works as an axis linking all parts of the building.

The design of each classroom is inspired by Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences and the common spaces include green areas and a vegetable patch. The sustainability aspect of the building ensures its orientation provides comfortable temperature, natural light and ventilation at all times.
