Item description from seller

219 pages : illustrations ; 28 cm. Introduction: In January 1969 the United Nations, working with the Banco de la Vivienda of Peru, asked us and twelve other architects from various countries to submit competition designs for a community of 1500 houses. The houses are to be built at a gross density of 37 houses per hectare on a site of 40 hectares, 8 kilometers north of Lima. The site is bounded by two major arterial highways, and crossed by a third; these highways are fixed by the Lima transportation plan. The financial arrangements require that each house be contractor built, on its own land, at a cost ranging from 78,000 to 164,000 soles ($1800 $3800), and that they be sold to low income white collar workers (empleados) earning between 2,800 and 5,800 soles ($65 $135) per month. We were asked to present our designs in a way that would help the evolution of Peruvian community and house design in the future. We have therefore chosen to present our work in two parts: In part one we present our designs. This includes a site plan, drawings and construction details for individual houses,and a choice process which allows the final site and house plans to be formed, in detail, by the idiosyncratic needs of the individual families who buy the houses. In part two we present sixty-seven general design principles which we call patterns. These patterns describe, in an abstract sense, the lessons which a Peruvian architect might learn from our designs, and could re-use, over and over again, in his own designs. We have combined these sixty-seven patterns in one particular way, to form the designs presented in part one. However, in the hands of different Peruvian architects, or in the hands of different individuals designing and building their own houses, these patterns can generate an almost infinitely rich variety. In this sense, these patterns may begin to define a new indigenous architecture for Peru.
