Abstract
In the current climate, characterised by major immigration issues, the question of housing arises more than ever. Beneath the social, economic, and legal questions raised by the access and the right to housing for immigrant populations, this research addresses, from a purely architectural point of view, the underlying question of adapting non-native ways of residing to native housing types. It studies, describes and explains the architectural operations through which non-native inhabitants adapt, transform and reinvent the native traditional habitat and the uses they make of it. It also aims to highlight the adaptations and architectural inventions produced by inhabitants, by identifying innovative schemes and emerging practices that could be advantageously reproduced.
