This paper presents a study of the urban morphology of Videira, Brazil, framing the evolution of the traces of the urban form as a process and of the manufacture of the city as an object. The object of study was chosen due to particularities such as: great formal-functional similarity with other Brazilian and European cities, a city produced from the 20th century, with a strong presence of the railway as a structuring road axis and topography as a matriarchal element of formation. We understand that there is a gap in understanding the formation of cities after the 20th century, fragmenting the elements of the urban form to understand the design of the city. The main objective is to understand the temporal evolution and generate models that can be used as parameters of block drawings focused on the geography of the sites, contributing to the urban planning of housing allotments more analogous in the distribution of lots. The method used is part of a compendium of theoretical and practical concepts, focusing on the classification of the urban form reviewed by several authors, with predominance of the School of English Urban Morphology: (1) relationship of the tracing with physical expression of the site, (2) main elements to support the composition and; (3) shape of blocks and lots. Preliminary results allow identifying blocks with predominantly irregular formats and very diverse lot patterns, circulation routes with a sinuous or poorly homogeneous profile and with several structural problems, reflecting the need for lots adapted to topography.
