DNADD and Techo Perú launch ideas competition on the right to housing

The housing deficit in Peru currently stands at 1.8 million, with 20.9% being quantitative and 79.1% qualitative. 70% of homes are built without the technical assistance of an architect or engineer. Do you want to be part of the change? The right to housing is the right to a dignified home: this is the shared goal of DNADD and Techo Perú—to redesign a new modular housing model capable of providing Lima's populations with basic necessities and a space worthy of being called a "home."

Lima is a city in constant evolution, yet it simultaneously lives in a state of continuous contradiction: a 3-meter-high, 10-kilometer-long wall that divides social strata in two. On one side, there is a completely arid landscape, devoid of green spaces or trees, with few streets, where water and electricity are luxuries, and many homes are self-built, even on the highest mountain peaks. On the other side, there is an explosion of green spaces, luxury housing, swimming pools, apartment towers, and services. The divide is stark.
