Descripción:This article represents a preliminary advance of a study that intends to analyze the conditions of habitability and materiality of rural houses on the coast of Ecuador, whose importance arises from the little attention given as objects of study, despite the fact that 37% of the population resides in rural areas. The lack of information on appropriate housing models for this sector is evident, so this study aims to analyze the most relevant characteristics of traditional rural housing in relation to its location and the materials available in the environment. In addition, the inheritance received in this context is analyzed, understanding it, how to take advantage of it, and apply it in the current construction. The result is not to propose a specific housing model, but rather to highlight the importance and be able to consider these aspects in the development of sustainable, functional housing models and according to their context.
