The objective of the work considers the development of a sustainable envelope for the thermo-energetic adaptation of Evolutionary Social Housing in Arid Zones. The methodology used considers theoretical and practical studies at Urban, Housing and Construction Scales. Those who guided the research to technological-constructive studies of the envelope, thermal behaviour, and energy efficiency (EE), with proposals for improvements to the base and expanded prototypes considering International and National Level standards (ISO, CTE, IRAM). Through the use as a tool for analysis, software with a background in different computer systems, internationally recognized, and applied to building energy efficiency. For these cases, the qualitative-quantitative results show reaching low EE, with classes H to F. And for the Proposed Optimized Expanded, with the incorporation of complementary external sustainable thermal insulating layers, a high EE is obtained, class B, weighted average transmittance K' m=0.41W/m2°K, with a weighted mean thermal variation τm=1.44°C. It is concluded that when the thermal insulation improvement integrates the entire envelope.
