Riassunto:This paper presents a group of projects developed by second year students at the Architectural Design Studio in our university and they represent an answer to the housing needs of low income families in Chile. The exercises carried out for three consecutive years in different places of our country's central region are based on a Preliminary Proposal which theoretical background was born in discussions held at the Instituto de la Vivienda (Housing Institute). The problem we are trying to face is the increasing difficulties encountered by the low income families in having access to an urban house with appropriate habitability conditions and with a greater social and physical integration. A complete version of the Preliminary Proposal was presented at the seminar "Vivienda social, Opciones para las familias más pobres" (Social housing options for low income famiies) in June 1999, which was published in Boletín N° 37 of the Housing Institute and in a paper describing the events at the seminar. Besides the work carried out by our students, this paper also includes an example of a Degree Project presented at the Universidad Mayor, which has similar characteristics and had our counselling.
