الملخص EN

The research addresses the transformations of Iraqi house designs during the period (1980-2020) represented by the cities of Baghdad and Samawah as a case study, adopting the analytical descriptive approach to study house designs, and inductive approach to reach the results.

the research process was through an office and field study of the two cities, which dealt with the comparison of pre-war houses (1980-1990), during the war and siege houses (1990-2010) until now.

in order to reach the house design transformations caused by the war and siege in the two cities, a comparison was made between the types of houses from both cities and in several aspects, including: • spaces, mass and void ratio.

• direction • internal spaces • external spaces • facades and exterior configuration by comparison, each city had its own housing type during the 1980s, and gradually the designs in both cities began to resemble principles and ideas in later periods due to events and large intercity migration.

the research found a set of results that the events of the period studied had a significant impact on the design of the houses in the cities, where the designs were more stable at the beginning of the period studied, and then became unstable in the 1990s and early 21st century, down to the current type, which is more stable than the previous period (the period of siege).
