HABITAT PROJECT SXXI HOUSING COOPERATIVE

June 2021

The housing cooperative project is located in the west of the city of Bogotá, in the upz Fontibón. In this project an analysis was made of what contemporary and future habitation means and implies. Based on this, we propose a restructuring of the Santander neighborhood, with the implementation of a mixed housing project, 100 street with 22th avenue, where one of the stations of the regiotram project will settle. Coming to propose a post-covid housing cooperative based on a circular, selfsufficient and sustainable economy; using design to help revitalize a neighborhood on the outskirts of the city and to provide its residents with a unique environment that encourages community generation.

Overall Picture Location

We are located in the western periphery of Bogotá, sector of Fontibón where we saw different opportunities since in the future the station of Regiotram of the west will be located, we also appreciate the tourism potential of the sector while being located near to the international airport. This analysis led us to identify certain problems in the quality of the habitation of the users of the sector among which we observed an overcrowding in the houses and a lack of connection to surrounding public spaces, therefore the inhabiting does not satisfy the basic needs of the users.
