Introduction
Vernacular building is the traditional and natural way by which communities house themselves. It is a continuing process including necessary changes and continuous adaption as a response to social and environmental constraints. The survival of this tradition is threathened worldwide by the forces of economic, cultural and architectural homogenization. How these forces can be met is a fundamental problem that must be addressed by communitites and also by governments, planners architects, conservationists and by a mulitdisciplinary group of specialists.
