Principles and application for Qa'a houses in Madina

This thesis is a study of the concept of user participation in the housing process. I explored how the support concept, which was developed by SAR (Stichting Architecten Research), can be applied to Madina. The study consists of three sections. The first section is devoted mainly to evaluate the existing condition and to an observation of traditional houses as well as an analysis. The second section represents the design of support. In the third section, I developed a tissue model and apply this tissue model to the site.
