The progressist ideological model

The progressist ideological model was one of the four models that aimed to solve the affordable housing issue that appeared in the 19th to 20th century. It went hand in hand with rationalism, aiming to find logical and rigorous solutions to the housing problems, having hygienic exigencies for the city. Their thinking was always future-oriented, their ultimate goal being to evolve and strive towards progress. They believed the human was a type-individual and that his needs and wants could be satisfied as they were easily quantifiable. That led to a degradation of the individual, since human beings are complex and it is difficult to understand the whole of their needs and behaviours. They were fans of the Age of Machinery and wanted to make use of all the new technologies that were then invented.
