Viviendas de interés social mediante la utilización de contenedores marítimos en zonas vulnerables de la sierra centro del Ecuador

Abstract

The present research proposes a way to create a housing solution for families that are striving to secure a house of their own. This research was carried out through a study and analysis of interior design techniques that will enable the reutilization of shipping containers as habitable spaces. It is through these techniques that it will be possible to map out and create comfortable environments, which are at the same time cozy and will promote the physical and emotional development of the families that reside in them. This project aims to alleviate the housing deficit in Ecuador with an affordable solution that will allow families with a certain income level to have access to different public and private institutional housing loans. The proposal is implemented in two stories. The different areas that make up the houses are distributed in 20 (6.05 m) and 40 (12.05 m) feet shipping containers, which were modified through a modular system. This will allow different modules to be combined through compositional techniques so that they will adapt to the terrain or space where they will be placed.
