Abstract

In Santiago de Chile as in other parts of the world, the housing complexes of the modern movement encompassed large patches of land. In these, a different logic to the traditional compact block of the Latin American city was configured, with important interior public spaces, circulations and commercial plates that were dissociated from the street and vehicular traffic. These urban projects represent a way of densifying the city from which lessons for the future can be drawn. The research seeks to learn from the possibilities of these built forms and reveal the preferences of users for these public spaces, in circumstances where the densification of the city has become an imperative.

 

Keywords: modern movement housing complexes, collective spaces, urban project, ambiance.
