Abstract: Rural areas are traditional living spaces that present local architecture of materials and construction techniques. In recent years, with the increase in social awareness, rural architecture has been directed, but rural architecture, which has problems in terms of architecture, economic, technical and legal aspects, needs to be protected. In this context, it is aimed in this study to form the basis for new applications for the protection of rural architecture by analyzing on sample area Serbian rural houses, which were selected as one of the practices in rural areas. In line with the purpose of the study, the study of the place and historical process of rural architecture in the literature and the architectural features and conservation practices of Serbian rural houses constitute the scope of the study. In the first step of the method, literature research on rural architecture was made, in the second step, the study text on Serbian rural houses was analyzed, and in the last step, the measures applied to increase the thermal comfort conditions for Serbian rural houses were examined through the analyzed study text. It is assumed that the improvement of the comfort conditions in the rural area of Serbia will encourage rural settlements in many countries to be preserved with their original textures. As a result, it is considered necessary to make plans where the applications to be made considering the original identity of the rural architecture offer solutions suitable for the traditional structure.
