Louis Kahn considered architecture as society of rooms. However, the houses that are built with the 60% footprint rule and in the infill plots of Iran hide this
community behind a facade. Self-Fabric house is a small family complex that does not accept the facade as a fate By shrinking the upper layers, the project forms private and tiny courtyards in the lower layers.
In terms of architecture, the Self-Fabric house is considered a challenge to the relationship between parts and the whole, and turns the common whole into stacked parts; Components that end up in a central courtyard at the top.
