| Popis: | Many authors point out that around the 1950s, the increase in the population of Lima caused the overflow of its urban footprint. At the same time, those decades coincide with the arrival and the rise of modern architecture in Peru. The demographic explosion had as an architectural response several models of collective housing widely studied: Neighborhood Units, Groupings and Residentials. But these are all ensambles outside of the traditional compact blocks and deep plots that characterize many of thecolonial traces in Latin America. Inside this urban fabric however, the multifamily building between party walls allowed for the vertical densification of the city. This essay focuses on commenting on the relationship between a selected group of local multifamily buildings and the modern canonical prototypes from which they adapt certain typological features. Thus, we intend to demonstrate that, despite the limitations of lotification and the design difficulties implicit in infill type buildings 1, modern influences help enrich these cases, producing complex and varied solutions. |
