Habitacional Matizes: flexibilidade, diversidade e produção seriada

Abstract

The demand for housing in Brazil is a subject that deserves very urgent attention. Since the creation of the “Programa Minha Casa Minha Vida” in the 2000s, the urban dynamics have been intense due to the motivation on the production of market and social housing. It is essential to rethink the actual production, so that in long terms it doesn’t compromise the quality of the cities and dwellings. In this work, it is proposed an analysis and answer to this demand in the shape of a housing block in the neighborhood of Pirambu, in the city of Fortaleza, Ceará. It is an example, since the approach given is global and could be used in many other contexts. The democratization of the project with the users and techniques of pre-fabrication and serial production were embedded to the work as sources for an accurate, environmental and economically sustainable answer to the program of necessities.
