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.
