El modo de habitar como estrategia para densificar

Abstract

Currently, urban densification emerges as an outstanding solution to the challenges of overpopulation and climate change. This strategy optimizes the use of space, allowing a greater number of inhabitants to be accommodated in reduced areas,

resulting in a significant decrease . of the energy footprint, however, this practice,

although effective, sometimes leads to the construction of mass housing that does

not meet adequate quality of life standards. Faced with this problem, the need for a

meticulous approach arises that involve the analysis and comparison and analysis of

certain representative case studies, these practical and existing examples will provide a solid basis for the development of design strategies focused on densification,

such strategies must deeply consider the way of life of the inhabitants, ensuring that

densification is not only efficient in terms of space and energy, but also enriches the

quality

of life of the population. The objective is to contribute significantly to the configuration of the habitat, promoting an environment that supports the well-being and prosperity of its users, while remaining in harmony with the environment, thus, densification becomes a key instrument for the design of more resilient and adaptive cities, prepared to face the challenges of the future.
