The Present dissertation arose from a problem observed in my homeland Cape Verde: houses that are not built to completion but the parts that have been concluded are being used. Most of these houses are not completed in one phase because the economic resources collected for that purpose run out and the parts that are not finished are put on standby pending for more resources for their conclusion. Most of the time this does not happen, so they remain unfinished. This is a situation that underdeveloped and developing countries have in common. Several problems arise from this situation: in the house itself, whose structure is exposed to inclement weather conditions and can cause damage to it; and also, in the language of the city that has been accumulating an unfinished urban construction. This work intends to study and analyse these constructions, and one hopes to be able to answer some questions, such as: What is the influence of the unfinished constructions in the construction / growth of the urban construction? How to design and integrate a building in an unfinished construction? How to design in order to prevent further unfinished constructions? To help answer these questions, some situations have been identified, apparently unfinished but which are not; they are designed and constructed that way for a purpose. I called them (un)finished. (Un)finished Interrupted are constructions in which some element is designed to be interrupted, which has a symbolic, poetic, aesthetic character or a particular situation that the project wants to express; (Un)finished Incremental are buildings that are designed to be built in phases to avoid unfinished constructions; (Un)finished Chameleon is a situation conceived to design buildings that are intended to be completed in one phase but which are going to fit in in an unfinished urban construction. This situation has the purpose of adapting a finished construction, in the unfinished, thereby trying to answer the second question.
