Abstract

This paper´s prospect is to present social housing´s experience in São Paulo city, with reference to contemporary issues of this challenge (central areas, for example.). For this presentation (which is the result of a 2010´s research) would like to highlight an Carmo street´s intervention developed by Vigliecca office. We stressed that the challenge of contemporary issues that has been tackled by the architect Héctor Viglieccawith deepening theoretical and architectural proposition-seems to have a different importance to the "renewal" of the social housing theme in metropolitan areas as São Paulo city.
