Abstract
This is a contribution to the documentation and analysis of the development of immigrant housing in Brazil, regarded as an architectural program lincked to transoceanic immigration, which was organized from the last quarter of the 19th century to the end of the 1st Republic to supply labor for agriculture or to populate the country. the article examines the nature of housing in context of the New World; it describes installations in Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Santos, and Campinas; and it verifies the existence of such constructions in other Brazilian cities. There has also been an attempt to establish analogies between this architectural program and those of isolation, hospitals, lazarettos, barracks and prisions.
