One of the greatest challenges Brazil faces is to reduce the deficit in dwellings supply, with an extra focus on the low-income market, which government officials have been working towards through city, state and federal policies. Among such acts, some are noteworthy as dwelling construction through partnerships with the private sector, as well as providing better loan conditions for property purchase. Such government efforts focus mainly on the quantitative aspect of the dwelling market problem, pushing qualitative matters to the background, but in a few initiatives, among which stands out State of São Paulo's commitment through the state owned Company for Housing And City Development and the State Department for Housing, which have considered qualitative matters within the architectural and urbanistic projects undertaken by them. One such project in particular deserves special mention: the Rubens Lara condominium, located in Cubatão, São Paulo, which was built from a detailed executive plan, which specified technical details of its sidewalks and access streets, common grounds, accessible apartments and leisure areas, making for better access and use of these places. In this project were employed the concepts of Accessibility and Universal Design, following the legislation and technical rules which govern such matters at the time, which yielded in distinguished design solutions in the social dwelling market in Brazil. Therefore, this dissertation aims to study this project and its outcome, starting at the legal references, as well as discussing the good practices found in it, looking at contributing with future projects of social housing focused on quality, founded on Accessibility and Universal Design tenets.
