Participation

There are plenty of definitions for participation, from a financial one untill a political but the best way to understand Participation in a housing context is to identify what is the aim. From this point we can mark to ways of participation, the traditional one and the modern one. The traditional way individuals were involved during the whole building process making posible to create a relation with the enviroment in order to establish their own identity. Today identity is not longer an aim, our society moves too quickly making it dificult to grow roots, so participation understood from a modern
point of view would be the search of efficency and well-being. Dwellers will participate in the design specifying their needs to technicians in order to get the best from their homes.
