Diseño de una vivienda multifamiliar flexible en el barrio Alarcón de Bucaramanga Santander

Abstract

The goal of this project is the development of flexible multi-family housing that guarantees flexibility in housing estimates, in response to the changing needs of different families in Bucaramanga. The lack of importance given to these generational changes and their respective needs is recognized, which makes it necessary to design a home that can adapt to them. To carry out this project, a deep knowledge of flexible housing and the different concepts related to it is needed, as well as the identification of the different types of families to understand their specific needs. A population analysis of Bucaramanga was carried out, categorizing the population density, and stratifying the entire metropolitan area, in addition to finding the different types of families present in the city. Once the users to whom the project will be intended were found, the urban situation of Bucaramanga was explored and an analysis of the structure and road system was carried out, showing the Positive, Negative, Opportunity and Threat aspects relevant to the user. Finally, six building projects were analyzed, half of them multi-family homes and the other half flexible homes, deepening the technology through a comparison matrix that shows common characteristics of urban components, forms, functions, and engineering. Based on each part, decisions were made, and design parameters were analyzed. This project stands for a significant contribution to the field of architecture and construction, to improve the quality of life of families in Bucaramanga and adapted to the changing needs of society.
