Introducing a new model of evolutionary rural housing design based on the principles of indigenous architecture in the Oramanat region by Sajad Mozafariyan, Ghazaleh Mohammadpour, Raha Hoseinpour, Saeed Shahriyan Varnousfaderani

“…This research aims to present the prominent architectural features (in terms of layout and plan) for the Oramanat region, which conform to the biological approach and contemporary needs in terms of optimal construction patterns. The achievement of this research is to provide comparative typologies of construction and layout, demonstrating that the tripartite geography typology of the Oramanat region (plain, mountainous, plain-mountainous) aligns with the east-west and north-south orientations (based on the shape of the land and prevailing temperature conditions in accordance with the climate), and addresses various aspects of biological needs in spatial organization.…”
