Resumen
This research explores the scope of the architectural project to propose different forms of production. It investigates the potential of spatial experimentation to transform the essential structure and land division of the city, by triggering new economic relations that may lead to a different urban ecology. The study departs from the understanding of the role of the factory in the city through global history in light of different economic trends, identifying a constant relation between forms of production, typology and urban impact. The historical analysis shows the close relationship and interdependence that exists between the building and the economic model, and opens the way for developing scenarios of architecture as a provoker, as a tool for generating new social organizations in the city. The research takes the city as a field for experimentation and architecture as the mean to conduct it.
