Description
Résumé:The material composition of buildings expresses the socio-technical decisions and arrangements that human communities make by enabling space in cities. These are decisions that directly affect the forms, persistence and vulnerabilities of urban complexes. Using the building data of the Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas (INE), this paper analyzed the distribution of materialities in the surfaces and buildings built in the Región Metropolitana de Santiago between 1990 and 2014, in order to verify the relationship between matter and city. The conclusions indicate that these decisions have consolidated two simultaneous sociomaterial strategies that translate into a peripheral city, brick and wood, which expands from low-rise buildings and a pericentral city of concrete and metal, which It is compacted using high-rise residential buildings.
