Authors : Ahmed Ammar Mohammed . Benabdallah Noureddine . Kari Nabil .

Abstract

Through this paper, we aim to shed light on the complex and disastrous situation of laksour region Ksours in the Saharan Atlas due to the profound changes that affected their architectural elements and original urban patterns, so they no longer appropriately reflect the region's identity. This situation led to the isolation of the desert native people from their environment, which is the basis of their original urban thought. Therefore, correcting the situation by searching for effective, objective, and practical mechanisms that accept projection on the ground has become necessary.
