EL RETIRO is a project of extension and attachment from an independent body to a multifamily housing, that serves and transforms preexistence into a productive habitat. The proposal is issued as an opportunity to understand and build specific, viable and productive solutions that attend the progressive growth of housings, and to take advantage of the residual spaces generated by Ecuador´s policies.


HOUSING SCENARIO: Architecture as a response to the continuous need for the reinvention of a habitat.


Housing is an activity, a built process. It's a dynamic object, that contains and combines a plurality of uses, individuals and activities that generate transformations that the housing must assimilate, therefore, evolution and adaptation of the housing through time is an indissoluble process of everyday life that benefits change and transformation to renovate its validity.


Its functional transmutation and therefore, the transformation of the urban landscapes acquire sense from a contextual reading, where neighborhoods progressively grow, replying and adapting to the immediate needs of habitants or communities.

EL RETIRO es un proyecto de extensión y anexo de un cuerpo independiente a una vivienda multifamiliar, que sirve y convierte la preexistencia en un hábitat productivo. La propuesta se presenta como una oportunidad para entender y construir soluciones específicas, viables y productivas que atiende al crecimiento progresivo de las viviendas y al aprovechamiento de los espacios residuales por norma en Ecuador.


ESCENARIO DE LA VIVIENDA: La arquitectura como respuesta a la necesidad de reinvención continua del hábitat.


La vivienda es una actividad, un proceso que se construye. Es un objeto dinámico, que contiene y combina una pluralidad de usos, personas y actividades que generan transformaciones que la vivienda debe asimilar, por ello, la evolución y adaptación de la vivienda en el tiempo es un proceso indisoluble de la vida cotidiana que favorece el cambio y la transformación para renovar su vigencia.


La mutación funcional de la vivienda y por consecuencia, la transformación del paisaje urbano adquieren sentido desde una lectura contextual, en donde los -barrios-crecen progresivamente, respondiendo y ajustándose a las necesidades inmediatas de sus usuarios y comunidades.
