Several Houses in Ecuador
Houses in Ecuador In Ecuador there are different ways and materials to build a house, much depends on the region, province or city in which you are going to live. Typical houses in Ecuador Ø Coast The houses built on the coast are made of open guadua and wood, generally raised off the ground to protect themselves from floods in the winter season. Ø Sierra Its walls are made of adobe (bricks of earth mixed with the dry leaves of grass or corn). Its rustic tile roof and small wooden windows. Its construction protects them from torrential rains and strong winds. Ø Amazon The houses of the Shuaras are built with materials from their environment, well closed. The sticks they use are generally made of guadua, the roof of trape (they are nature branches) intertwine to give shape to the roof. Thank you.
