A living environment made by human being has been developing, up to dating, improving or maybe even getting worse in some cases either by sustaining its past tradition and history or removing the existing culture pursuing “new” style of living environment through the history of architecture and urban planning. This study investigates the possibilities of utilization and adjustment of architectural characteristics and spatial configuration of Mongolian GER houses for the modern housing settlements . The GER, a Mongolian traditional housing is a portable, round tent with cone-like roofing and covered by skin or felt under canvas and used for the thousands of years as a dwelling by nomads in the steppes of the country. An ongoing migration (began in 1990s) from rural areas to Ulaanbaatar, the capital city of Mongolia formed a GER settlement area which causes the over half of an air and a soil pollution existing according to its urban infrustructureless state. Design concept of a space that has been formed over the centuries provides data for building types such as mass housing for single living people, small families, students, rural to capital migrants of Mongolia, emergency housing for natural disaster victims.
