G – 5 casas: Prefabricated Concrete Housing by SUMMARY in Chile
The G – 5 casas project, designed by the architecture firm SUMMARY, is a collective housing development in Chile. Curated by Susanna Moreira for ArchDaily, the project spans 835 m² and is led by architect Samuel Gonçalves, with a team including Inês Rodrigues and João Meira. Engineering is provided by FTS, Technical Solutions, and prefabrication by Arouconstroi SA. The design relies entirely on prefabricated reinforced concrete: modular panels form facades, roofs, and interior partitions. This standardization streamlined construction and reinforced the building's visual identity. Photographs are by Alexander Bogorodskiy. The project was submitted by the design team and published on ArchDaily Chile.
