La dinámica de la vivienda social vs. la dinámica de la composición familiar y sus efectos urbano-arquitectónicos en la ciudad de Loja. Estudio de Caso: La Pradera

Abstract

In the city of Loja in the 80s, several housing programs are built, located outside the perimeter of the urban area. One of this is La Pradera, which did not have mobile points and adequate basic services.

For design guidelines it was necessary to consider first of all an overview of social housing and family composition. Second, the theoretical evolutionary analysis of 80 homes in La Pradera, analyzing its functional, technological, formal aspect, family composition and socio-economic aspect. Contemplating as well, changes and growth in housing produced; which provided guidelines to be considered for the design and its progression over time.

Third, establish a set of strategies such as: flexibility; allowing evolutionary growth, and modulation; allowing saving materials in its construction, and that these conditions are maintained. This is a support -seed, manifesting the support as the structure and the seed as separable mobile units.This proposal is intended to be a starting point to improve housing.
