Abstract
This article aim is to define the logic that governs the spatiality of
neo rural houses of the “Guebla” axis of the M'sila department in Algeria.
Its goal is twofold. On one hand, it is a question of defining the generating
planar character of these single-family homes, on the other hand, using the
empirical method of space syntax analysis to consider through new cultural
contexts, the importance of the human characteristic in the creation and the
use of the space. This research was applied to thirty cases using
appropriate mathematical and computer tools to determine the hidden
socio-spatial structures of the new rural houses built since the decade of the
2000s in an agro-pastoral region of central Algeria. This study has
identified several ways of distributing the domestic space through the
identification of seven architectural genotypes.
