Abstract
In this paper the architectural type of house with patios from the Aburrá Valley is addressed through the analysis of a system based on the adaptation of the approach that Régis Debray makes on the development of the image in the West and establishes three ways of looking: magic, aesthetics and economical. In the text it is shown that this thesis also applies to the mental construct that humans make about architecture and states that the house with patio corresponds to the aesthetic look, structured symbolically in a vertical way with numinous character.
