Summary:This paper problematizes living the city from the design dimension, using as theoretical approach the notion of ‘minor’ as in Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari. For the authors, ‘minor’ is related to minoritary notions as a form of resistance to larger logics – macropolicy and metanarratives that constitute disciplinary fields – functioning as a micropolitical power to produce some sort of disruption to the Major Logic. In this paper, this conceptual notion is shifted to the field of Architecture to think the design in its dimension of know-how to produce the city. The text is built in between a know-how from the disciplinary field of Architecture that produces a Major Inhabiting fully coordinated with the socioeconomic and legal systems of land rights, and, other non-institutional, informal, often irregular, know-how that creates outside the precepts of the academy, a minor living. The intention here is to produce a critical look at the design processes of living. That is, by focusing on the design act as efficiency of solving space problems, we propose to introduce some noise in this know-how.
