In the context of a school, says architect Daniel Bonilla, principal designer at the Colombian firm Taller de Arquitectura de Bogotá, “architecture is the third teacher.” The first, of course, is the actual instructor, and the second is the curriculum. But the buildings in which they study, Bonilla says, “teach them how to communicate, how to relate to others, how to respect a space.” At the Colegio los Nogales, a private K–12 school at the northern periphery of Colombia’s sprawling capital, Bonilla’s firm has been collaborating on the school’s built environment for more than two decades, most recently in a dramatic renovation of the school gymnasium into what the institution now calls its Sports and Culture Center.
