The purpose of this article is to carry out a reflection that contributes to the creation of strategies that favor the generation of decent habitats in rural areas of Colombia affected by the armed conflict. A set of factors articulated in guiding axes is proposed for the integration of the site and the territory, the materiality and the design, and the social and economic component. This in order to guide the design and development of rural housing programs and projects by including elements that allow the generation of sustainable habitats. From this perspective, a case study of the rural social housing project delivered to the La Palma indigenous reservation by the state company Vivienda de Antioquia (VIVA) in Apartadó (Antioquia) was analyzed. It is concluded that it is of vital importance that rural houses are built from a holistic approach capable of integrating technical, social, cultural and environmental factors, to guarantee that these are decent spaces, that they offer the minimum conditions of habitability and are integrated into their respective territories.
