“…Sustainability is composed of three pillars (Kahriman-Ozturk et al, 2012; 'Pillars of Sustainability ', 2014;and United Nations, 2015) as in Figure 5, or major components as Opatha (2016) puts it -to have and live a life which is, socially equitable, environmentally sound, and economically viable.

Culture has remained one of the most remarkable aspects of human existence. It has proven its indispensability by surviving the battering and bantering from both intangible and tangible concepts such as 'globalization' and 'International Style' respectively. It is a fact that, the cultural history of any people is a crucial factor in understanding the things they hold as the essence of their living. One of the best ways to preserve a people's culture and history is to preserve their traditional built environment, because it is one significant arena within which this drama continuously unfolds. The Gidan-gaado (traditional extended family-house) is one of the actors taking the center-stage in contemporary urban areas, especially those urban areas of West Africa. It is within this expansive scenario that this study embarks upon the evaluation of perceptions of occupants of the Gidan-gaado, to highlight the reasons it remains formidably resilient. The study is approached from a transactional perspective, in which the 'home' and its environs are viewed as a quantity that defines, and is defined, by socio-cultural dispositions and psychological conditions. Mixed methods and case study strategies were utilized to evaluate the role of the Gidan-gaado in urban sustainability. Interviews and survey were used in the traditional urban core of Keffi town, one of the historic towns in Nigeria. Conclusions were drown on the dire need to preserve and sustain the traditional urban Gidan-gaado.
