HOUSES⇒


I’m going to speak about some different types of houses:

Architecture of modern houses.  Was based upon new and innovative technologies
of construction, particularly the use of glass, steel and reinforced concrete; the idea that form
should follow function (→functionalism); an embrace of minimalism; and a rejection of
ornament.It emerged
in the first half of the 20th century and became dominant after World War II until the 1980s,
when it was gradually replaced as the principal style for institutional and corporate buildings
by postmodern architecture.


Palafito.  The palafitos are houses where the pillars or simple stakes or houses in the water,
are built on bodies of calm waters such as lakes, lagoons and pipes (irregular and slow courses
by which they drain the rivers and lagoons of the low regions), although also They are built on
land and by the sea, as is the case in some areas of Chile.
The word derives from the Italian palafitta (Bushy sticks). In 2002 an important discovery at the
mouth of the Sarno river revealed that in the port area of Pompeii there were palafitos seated
on a system of canals, which also suggest a certain similarity


Yurta  A traditional yurt (from the Turkic languages) or ger (Mongolian) is a portable, round
tent covered with skins or felt and used as a dwelling by several distinct nomadic groups in the
steppes of Central Asia. The structure comprises an angled assembly or latticework of pieces
of wood or bamboo for walls, a door frame, ribs (poles, rafters), and a wheel (crown,
compression ring) possibly steam-bent. The roof structure is often self-supporting, but large yurts
may have interior posts supporting the crown. The top of the wall of self-supporting yurts is
prevented from spreading by means of a tension band which opposes the force of the roof ribs.
Modern yurts may be permanently built on a wooden platform; they may use modern materials
such as steam-bent wooden framing or metal framing, canvas or tarpaulin, Plexiglas dome,
wire rope, or radiant insulation.


Ruca  The ruca is the most important construction within the Mapuche architecture. Ruca in
mapudungun means 'house' and that is where the Mapuches lived traditionally.
Its surface varies between 120 and 240 square meters. This construction is based on materials
offered by nature in the place it is located, for example: They are formed by walls of boards or
sticks of coligüe, reinforced inside with wooden posts and upholstered with cattails. The roof is
made of reed or some grass similar to wild straw.
The traditional ruca is round, oval or can also be rectangular or square and has a single main
entrance open to the East, an orientation that expresses the Mapuche cosmological preference
for the Pwelmapu or Puelmapu ('Land of the East'). You can also have a small secondary door
to the west.
