One of the most critical needs for Libyan families is to have priority access to suitable and independent housing, enabling them to acquire and own it. This is a primary goal for designers, based on the needs of Libyan citizens. Providing housing opportunities for individuals of all ages, income levels, and abilities falls under citizens' rights that the Libyan state should ensure. However, the high cost of acquiring independent housing, due to its large size—the preferred model among Libyan families—and the difficulty of ownership, hinders the achievement of this goal. Recognizing that architectural design is an effective tool for providing suitable and independent housing, this paper aims to present a design experience for an independent, affordable house with an approximate area of 180 square meters on a 300-square-meter plot. The design meets the functional needs of Libyan families, while respecting their social, cultural, and religious requirements, and aligns with municipal building regulations and the design requirements of the Libyan Building Code..................
