Capilla para el Tio
The project is a shrine to Tio, and will serve as a place the miners can
leave gifts for the devil so he does not harm the men working in the
mountain.
Location: Potosi, Bolivia
The project was extremely demanding and dangerous.
No work could be
done while the miners were inside of the mountain, for extra people
would have impeded the narrow passageways. That left the only possible
time to build the shrine during the evening – when the temperature
dropped severely, never mind the location being at an altitude on 4200
meters.

Universidad Andina Simón Bolivar / G/CdR Arquitectos
- The concept of a campus is not a paradigm with no historic root in the city of Sucre, being traditionally a university city, it always has prized to offer itself willingly, either in its public spaces or in its monumental buildings and urban collections, to the presence and activity of students of the entire country, a fact that grants Sucre much of its singularity:This is what’s called genuis loci.
