Vivienda rural sostenible para el mejoramiento del habitat del campesinado en San Juan de Sumapaz: propuesta de vivienda campesina vernácula

Abstract

The main proposal is a sustainable housing alternative, to provide a decent home, giving better habitability for the peasant population, through the technique of wattle and daub construction in the rural area of the village of San Juan de Sumapaz. Field work was carried out to understand the day-to-day dynamics, the needs of the inhabitants and their culture. The material proposed was wattle and daub as an economical, sustainable material that forms the enclosure and structure of the house. Different passive comfort strategies were included in the design, which seeks to promote the production of the sector, the cultural roots of the region and generate community, thus helping the inhabitants of the edge of the capital not to abandon their land, seeking the conservation of the peasants in their rural areas as mechanisms of environmental protection and that the roots of the land prevail as a cultural value in this locality.
