Abstract

Abstract: This research includes the study of the rural habitat of the Cera neighborhood, focused on the productive activity of the inhabitants of the neighborhood and therefore the study of the typologies of ancestral architecture, which is currently disappearing, as new industrialized construction systems are introduced to the place.An architectural analysis of the rural ancestral home of Cera will be developed, under 3 criteria: the place, the program and the construction, in order to understand the link between the home and the context, and have a clear understanding of the way of living in the city. community, allowing in this way to define strategies based on the results obtained.Finally, a housing prototype is proposed, which will be proposed under the same ancestral construction criteria, since they are materials that help to conserve the environment and that adapt to the geographical and environmental conditions of the Cera neighborhood, always trying to rescue the identity of community culture.
