Abstract
The problem of housing, is a topic that arose after popular urban growths brought by the Industrial Revolution in Colombia. The theoretical proposals that sought to solve this led to rational and functional handlings of the space that constituted the central argument of architectural and urban theory of the first decades of the XX century. In Colombia the necessity of hygienic worker’s housing was noted starting from the plague of 1918, through which unhealthy spaces in housing were recognized – something that caused pity and disgust -and that conformed a social problem that threatened the population of Bogotá. This brought the intervention of the State with the purpose of avoiding socialist and communist revolutions. This applied housing theories that contributed with the modernization of the city.
