Abstract :The aim of this article is to reveal the mathematical dimension behind the complex structure of architectural fabric through a three-dimensional analysis. Given that the architectural character, which has evolved under the influence of various cultures over time, is crucial for urban integrity and sustainability, understanding the mathematical dimension underlying this character is of great importance for new designs and interventions in existing urban fabric. Therefore, streets in the Arabahmet neighbourhood of Lefkoşa Suriçi, which best represents the traditional fabric, were examined using a three-dimensional fractal analysis method. The analyses indicate that, in general, the fractal dimension values of the residential fabric-created streets are above 2.52, demonstrating a high level of character and complexity in these streets. Additionally, the fractal dimension values of these streets are close to each other, supporting the spatial and mass consistency of different streets within the same neighbourhood.
