Using a model of population synthesis well tuned to reproduce the disc and halo populations of the Galaxy, we show how to set constrains on the bulge population parameters using magnitude and colour distribution in 4 directions near the bulge. This first analysis result in a bulge with a disc-like LF but a density law much steeper in the center.
