This growth occurred with few regulations and without an urban plan to facilitate discussions on fundamental aspects of living. The result has been an invasion of bland, so-called “multifamily” buildings that began in Lima's most established areas and expanded across the rest of the city. Most of these buildings suffer from poor design, conceived solely from a real estate business perspective to capitalize on a booming economic period where anything would sell. This building is a critical response to that situation—a sui-generis collective housing project in the heart of the central Miraflores district.
