The settlements are designed, built and used by people. The way of deployment and location, its growth and its changes depend on the behaviour and lifestyle of its inhabitants. Housing is one of the basic human needs and is part of the overall rural identity, and any changes in its pattern will create a widespread transformation in the various dimensions of the life of rural households. For this reason, design for villagers requires comprehensive planning based on regional knowledge. The purpose of the research is to investigate new rural construction and its adaptation to the local architecture of pond villages. Various tests such as Cochran formula, t test, Pearson test and multiple regression test were used to study the adaptation of new construction with local architecture. The results of the research show that local architecture has the greatest effect on the survival of residents in the village and their satisfaction.
