In the 1950s, Colombian architects Álvaro Ortega and Francisco Pizano designed highly original dwellings by following advanced criteria in modularity and industrialization that were in line with the postulates of this period. Their approaches are reflected in a large number of constructions that were later-built throughout Latin America. Additionally, this article demonstrates how Pizano’s house was an inspiration for Le Corbusier and then later for Latin American domed dwellings in the 1950's, 60's, and 70's. It, therefore, demonstrates the influence of architecture from Bogota in terms of this structural typology (the prefabricated dome) as both an antecedent and consequence of this type of building.
