Master Thesis A Comparative socio-cultural and environmental study on traditional interior courtyard houses of Tripoli and Antakya(2003) Sharif, Salemhis research focuses on traditional interior courtyard houses as one of the fundamental topologies of housing. It is an attempt to investigate the socio-cultural and environmental factors that are assumed to have an important role in shaping and configuring the interior courtyard house. The interior courtyard house has been investigated in detail within this socio-cultural framework starting from the theoretical literature and field studies. Consequently case-studies in both Tripoli (Libya) and Antakya (Turkey) are selected to examine the several concluded principles that have been driven from the theoretical reviews and applied in fieldwork. Comparing the results of both studies in interior courtyards in Tripoli and Antakya exposes differences in interior courtyard configurations due to socio-cultural context as well as environmental aspects. Interior courtyards are integral parts in creating house identity and core construction for spatial relations among other spaces of the dwelling units. While this study reveals several interesting results about effects of socio-cultural and environmental factors in the interior courtyards, it primarily discusses different methods for analyzing the interior courtyard from different perspectives. The literature review exposes several aspects concerning the interior courtyard configurations in the houses. While most researchers focus only on one specific functional or climatic topic, this thesis includes important elements from both socio- mcultural and environmental aspects; as one of the ultimate goals of this study is to produce individual identities through creative design principles for interior courtyard houses for the designers.
