| Sumari: | This article shortly analysis the residential habitat security main perspectives in our country. It is said that the dominant focus it has been, with an exaggerated emphasis on, defensive spatial appropriation above the need to build healthy integrated communities. Next, the alternative theoretical framework, developed by Bill Hillier’s Space Syntax methodology and his colleagues (1984) more than thirty years ago in England, application. Then, after introducing some confi gurational analysis concepts; some conceptual and methodological aspects are proposed for this vision that could help on a more safe residential habitat design; the visual scope and legible to the weft ideas. Also, it examines this idea in a real case study, Quilicura Community, located in Santiago’s periphery. The results show that the Spatial Syntax tools proposed allow the architect and urban planner to evaluate in advance the different alternatives of habitat design that can be essential to improve security perception in the residential space. |
