The research emphasizes the relevance of post- occupancy evaluation as a guiding of the whole Project development process in a way to attend in a more complete and intense manner to the demands of the residents/ users. 

The work methodology was based on the followings approaches: (i) structure the architectonic project development in the following aspects: form, function, materiality, sustainability and furniture; (ii) systematize the information collected in previous phases; (iii) research materials and technologies adequate to the conceptual solutions proposed; (iv) discuss the Project process, its phases and content, inserting POE (Post-Occupancy Evaluation) as a continuous and uninterrupted information methodology; (v) insert in the project process the continuous use of tridimensional models; (vi) insert in the project process the participation of possible users; (vii) collect data and information about experiences of Social Housing in a construction phase or already constructed in other cities.
