 Abstract

The conditions of uneven asymmetrical development in Santiago de Chile are explored through the concept of urban thresholds: the divide between the neighbourhoods of La Victoria and San Joaquin, the transition between public and private space, a collaboration between autoconstruction and controlled development, and the boundary between appropriated and designed space. An architectural response is proposed on the transition between these conditions, which addresses each aforementioned quality.
