The current research was an attempt to reconsider one of the key regulations in the contemporary building control system pertaining to the historical fabrics of the old cities in the southern coasts of the Caspian sea. It specifically concentrated on the building placement and the plot coverage regulations. These two interwoven regulations perform as a mediator between the urban design and the architectural design disciplines. The research emphasized that these regulations should be based on the vernacular building placement patterns. In this paper, first a report was presented on the negative effects of the current building placement and the plot coverage regulations. After that it was attempted to identify the principal characteristics of a desirable approach to the topic based on an analysis of a number of the relevant international experiments. Next, as a case study, the historical urban fabric of Lahijān city, an old city in the Guilān province, was examined. An examination of the aerial photos of the city, and the extensive field visits indicated that in the vernacular architecture of Lahijān city, there were two main types of the building placement patterns. First and the most common pattern was the perimiter placement of the residential building(s) in a plot of land. It could take 15 different forms. The second pattern was a pavilion-like placement pattern which could take 5 different forms of arrangement. In order to investigate the frequency of each pattern, in the aerial photo of the city of 1956, the whole city was divided into 50 square pieces among which 10 pieces were selected and examined. In each piece, the number of houses that used any one of those placement patterns was calculated. In sum, 286 houses were examined and the most popular patterns were identified. These vernacular patterns could be used as a basis for rewriting the relevant regulations.
