The case of the housing units in Tafí Valley reveals the result of addition and subtraction architectural processes in landscape construction. Falling under four formal categories of courtyard houses, these dwellings are characterized by three features: their relation with the topography, the construction techniques and devices used, and the intangible legacy of social practices that regulate the use of space.
