| Abstract | ||||
| Within each country worldwide, the government set their own polices and laws when developing a system of constructing a shelter based on criteria, set by their specialists in all domains such as social financial, and aesthetics aspects. Yet, there are also occupants who have different perspective and ideas concerning their own living styles. The theory of incremental building is a practical solution for the problem of providing housing for low-income families; the participation between designers and future inhabitants is highly emphasized .The proper implementation of the incremental housing technique validates the process as a successful solution to inadequate housing. In Chile, Quinta Monroy project is designed for low-income families, where houses starts with a core space over a small area that would expand progressively increasing in value overtime, to become a real investment for those families. In India, Belapur Project adopts the same technique to cater all income groups’ categories. The design of the village is tailored to fulfill Indian traditions and needs. In Egypt, Ebny Betak Project, commonly translated to “Build Your House” is an incremental low-cost housing project was launched by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development to solve housing issues for low-income families. The project generally succeeded, but faced challenges in various perspectives. The research analyzes Ebny Betak Project from all aspects to increase the efficiency of future projects. | ||||
