C++ local libraries and relative path

I have so many includes like this in my application

#include "../../libs/helper.hpp"

I am glad to remove there ../../libs/ from every include. Is there any way to fix this problem so I can call the library this way?

#include "helper.hpp"

one possible way is to use -I switch in make file. But the problem is that then I should use angular brackets < and > for calling libraries. It is undesirable since I prefer to distinguish between my local libraries and the installed libraries. So I am looking for a way to call it with " around the name of the libraries.

Is there any way?

-iquotedir
Add the directory dir to the head of the list of directories to be searched for header files only for the case of #include "file"; they are not searched for #include <file>, otherwise just like -I.
