Abstract

Today, building and architecture methods have developed in most countries of the developed world until they are at a very high degree of integration and

the employment of types of technology, and their design methods have spread in most countries around the world, which leads to the loss of national identities and the absence of tangible and intangible cultural legacies, so architecture has become alienated. About its cultural environments and the absence of the local cultural identity. Despite the development, awareness of the cultural heritage has increased and has become the focus of global attention. It is a mirror that reflects the civilization of nations.

From this point of view, the current research sheds light on the most important ancient folk industries that characterize the province of Lattakia, with a modest study of the reality and prospects of these industries and the possibility of investing them at the level of interior architecture because of the positive repercussions they bear in the success of the architectural element and the formation of a visual identity that expresses reality and is integrated with heritage.
