The study documented and evaluated existing Moro-Islamic traditional houses? conformity to Dr. Abraham Sakili?s Muslim Concept of Space, and endeavored to provide a set of design guidelines in accordance to the Muslim Concept of Space. Mindanao has 13 Muslim ethno-linguistic groups, all of which are barely documented. The researcher was able to document eleven available traditional houses from the selected Moro-Islamic tribes; 3 of which came from the Kalagan tribe, 1 torogan from the Maguindanao tribe, 3 torogans from the Maranao tribe, 1 torogang from the Sangil tribe, 1 luma from the Yakan tribe, and 2 luma from the Badjao tribe. The validity of this research was judged according to the validity of the formulated research framework of Dr. Sakili. Discourse analysis helped in the architectural representation of the synthesis between the understanding of Islamic beliefs, and the existing Moro-Islamic built-environment. The study was able to extract similarities and unique differences in the building aesthetics, spatial organization, and spatial standards of the 7 Moro-Islamic dwellings. With enough resources, an in-depth study that takes a closer look on the Moro people's built environment should be fostered.
