In response to the changing requirements and aspirations of societies, architecture is a dynamic representation of the interaction between tradition and innovation. Rooted in the customs of the surrounding areas, vernacular architecture embodies a multitude of architectural ideas and cultural knowledge. The incorporation of vernacular adaptations into contemporary private homes is a fascinating investigation that aims to balance cultural identity with modern living requirements. This thesis explores the value and difficulties of using vernacular aspects in private home architecture, acknowledging the possibility of a mutually beneficial relationship between tradition and modernity.

An overview of the role that vernacular architecture plays in maintaining cultural identity.The goal and purview of the thesis are to investigate how modern design and vernacular elements are combined in private homes.

Vernacular adaptation also heavily relies on design elements and cultural aesthetics. Modern private homes can reflect the local cultural identity by utilizing traditional patterns, motifs, and architectural styles. In addition to giving the locals a stronger feeling of community, this helps to conserve and promote the area's architectural legacy.
