In Mexico, social housing is known as small, ugly housing on the outskirts. We believe that social housing should be intra-urban housing that gives something back to society, in this case, recovering the immediate public space that connects the new building with the old houses and dwellers. Donceles Feli is a collective housing intervention located in a working-class neighborhood of 1,161 homes, developed in the 1980s by the Mexican national housing institution, Infonavit, for hospitality workers. We believe in building a strong community where its residents would be proud to live in.
