Abstract

Abstract: Bad architectural practice on heritage landmarks within historic centers of the country, and especially the city of Loja, highlights the lack of a more comprehensive study detail that allows proposals to be made that consider as the main fact the meaning history that housing represents, to generate an intervention that combine elements beyond generating false histories, so that they are solved more everyday aspects with contemporary strategies that are reflected through of the differentiation of construction periods, this through shapes and materials that allow us to differentiate the original from the added. For this reason, this research work is aimed at generating a critique through a proposal that grants obvious distinction to heritage, but that solves those contemporary needs of the area in which the housing on which the intervention (belonging to the Palacio-Riofrio family), located on 10 de Agosto streets and November 18, in the city of Loja, Ecuador.
