Casa Ensamble Chacarrá: architecture as an act of legitimation of selfpracticed habitat in Latin America

La arquitectura como un acto de legitimación del hábitat autoproducido en Latinoamérica

Abstract

For many years now, there has been an interest to understand the places and their different scales and ecosystems altogether with their generalities and particularities. The territories are the sum of contrast clusters: the superposition of layers of light, shadows, aromas, textures and sounds. In Ruta 4, we strongly believe that every place tells a story and that architecture should be a symbolic representation of it, i.e., a cultural, material, geographic, morphological, historical and political correspondence of the place and the
time, a testimony of the era in which the project is developed.
