Resumen
Developing a project of home buildings has been always complicated, it requires a complete conscience about the place which is going to be placed, the materials in the zone, and mainly, it involves thinking in the relationship that we could generate between the occupants of the building with their neighbors and with the city, understanding that the fundamental axis about the design it’s the human being, and the biggest concern lies in trying to generate spaces that could be able to improve the quality of life of the citizens.
Projecting home buildings is a valid solution in cities which due to their quick increase they need to be compacted, that’s the reason why our study is focused in cities of the Ecuadorian coast with a population higher than 150.000 habitants, with especial attention in Manta, because in this city exists a lot of private local and international investors for the development of home projects.
Redrawing four projects of home buildings (local and foreign) helps us to identify successful and mistaken design approaches, standards that in one way or another let us understand and use architectonic resources when we are going to design a building.
Based in all this studies, we developed two architectural drafts that, located in different contexts around Manta, can resolve home buildings through the application of similar design standards.
