Daniel Bonilla looks at architecture with an eye for urban design.
By Beth Broome
Though he knew no one in the field or even that a formal discipline existed, Daniel Bonilla made the decision to become an architect when he was nine years old. “I loved modern architecture and had a keen interest in what was new,” says Bonilla who, as a young boy, turned to pictures of buildings in books and magazines for his drawing models. “I’m still very keen on understanding what the world is today. I’m still more interested in what is new.” Because he traveled very little as a child, his inspiration came from his hometown of Bogotá, Colombia, where in high school he drew buildings on-site as a way of observing and understanding the city. “I started to develop a concern that is important to my work today: how buildings change and affect society,” he says.
