This thesis explores the architectural history of my family house in Hay-El Souk Baskinta,
Mount Lebanon, guided by the concept of the ‘family house’ typology, and a socioeconomic understanding of ‘vernacular’ architecture. It then explores a realistic
renovation project of my family house as part of the revitalization of the Souk of Baskinta.
By understanding the history of vernacular structures in the souk within a socio-economic
cultural infrastructure, I propose to preserve/renovate the built fabric by tapping into the
economic potentials of Baskinta today. The owners in the souk will establish a coop to
manage, finance, and implement a new program for the souk. In this context, I propose an
appropriate design for my family house. |
