Abstract

In the mid-20th century –which marked the beginning of the industrialization process in Chile– several firms critical for development established themselves on the banks of the Biobio River, in what would later become a strategic location. Many of these companies connected the factory facilities with housing complexes for their workers. This work takes as case study the Bio-Bio Papers complex, located in the current commune of San Pedro de la Paz, Greater Concepcion, Chile. Its objective is to highlight the architectural-urban morphology of the case’s industrial complex. A historical study is conducted which collects information from secondary sources to then focus on the description and analysis of its urban and architectural setup, further delving into its spatial values.
