Los cuarenta años transcurridos, así como la continua transformación de las viviendas por sus usuarios, hacen posible reflexionar sobre la adecuación de las distintas tecnologías constructivas propuestas en el concurso. En esa época se confiaba en la industrialización pesada, como se constata en la propuesta de los arquitectos alemanes o polacos. Sin embargo, bastantes propuestas del PREVI optaron por la racionalización constructiva y la fabricación seriada de pequeños elementos, lejos de los grandes prefabricados tridimensionales. La situación en Latinoamérica invita a cuestionar si algunas de las propuestas tecnológicas del PREVI serían viables actualmente.Peer reviewed2013201320122012info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://hdl.handle.net/10261/80014reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.

[EN] The PREVI, Spanish initials for “experimental housing project”, was conceived in Lima in 1967. Among other initiatives, it launched an international architectural competition that led to the construction of a 500-unit compound based on proposals put forward by teams such as Atelier 5, Aldo van Eyck, and Íñiguez de Ozoño and Vázquez de Castro. The forty years that have lapsed in the interim and the ongoing transformation of the homes by their dwellers afford an opportunity to reflect on the suitability of the construction technologies proposed in the competition. At the time, the tendency was to rely on large-scale industrialisation, as can be seen in the German and Polish architects’ proposals.
