Nowadays, due to resource constraints and increasing demand for energy, the use of static systems in designs that can provide thermal comfort without the need for fossil fuels is important. In this study, the extent of the indigenous architecture of the village was studied in the context of static heating because, in the eco-design, attention to the culture and elements of the native and traditional nature and architecture of each area can be a useful inspiration to the designers. In this study, Kong village with stepped typology in cold mountainous climate was selected as a case study. The research method used in this study is qualitative and analytical, which describes the climatic factors in the village and then using documentary and field studies, the criteria and sub-criteria of static heating systems in the village of Kong have been analyzed and ranked according to Habitat Climatic Index (AHP). And at the end of the research, it was concluded that the best habitat pattern with respect to priority and rank is the rectangular flat roof pattern. The results of this study show that the design and construction of Kong village houses are shaped by the contextual and climatic conditions and can be said to have an approach based on natural constructivism in which natural materials and passive methods of regulating environmental conditions provide a suitable model for sustainable architecture.
