Between 1934 and 1952 the architect Carlos Gómez Gavazzo develops an approach to rural problems of Latin America and particularly in our country. Expanding the scale of the concerns, he goes from the unit family farm habitat to a complete theory on how to order the entire rural productive territory. This path is accompanied by a precise formulation of a radical alternative to the usual imagery of rural workers. This thesis seeks to prove that the proposed habitat conditions for field locations would form a network of small-scale, high density and equipped with good level of service, ie a distinctly urban life in the countryside imaginary. For this, the process of building rural issues will be discussed and proposed for colonic center Chapicuy 1953 will be taken by case.
