Abstract

The city can be perceived as a contradictory space in which disorder, tensions, conflicts, needs, subversiveness, and social problems take place as well as elements of entertainment, cultural effervescence, heterogeneities and dynamic processes that renew, merge and involve themselves. We believe that the city can be understood in the gathering of multiple stories of day to day life, where the human situation is the creative force despite tougher conditions. This research aims to reflect on this vernacular design present in the demonstrations of the people, remarking the fact that the city can be an active urban space and a starter of the creative process.
