The Role of Culture in Promoting Architectural Identity

The culture of each society is identified through its manifestations such as language, art, and architecture, and analysis in the field of culture is related to the study of cultural manifestations. Architecture as a matter of human life reflects the culture in every society interacting closely with structural, historical, political, economic and social features of society. People in every country try to follow their norms and maintain their values in making of architecture by applying the material things. Changing the cultural and social attitudes in communities has the greatest impact on the architecture. Therefore, the role of culture in promoting architectural identity seems essential. This descriptive article with the assumption that architectural is a complete symbol of human culture tries to study the role of culture in promoting architectural identity based on the documents and library studies. Therefore, after relooking the definitions of culture, identity, architecture and their interaction with each other, some Iranian historic buildings in different periods (as the case studies) were studied. The result is that the culture of each community defines the identity of the community and architecture as a social phenomenon was originated  from the culture and its effects. Art and architecture are of the most important symptoms and characteristics of each nation and every historical period that indicate the environment human’s lives at any time. So, if architectural identity gets described in culture and tradition, the architecture based on today’s not past culture and traditions is the architecture with identity that is and will always be  with us

Designing Principles in Historical Buildings of Iran

Uneven and unbalanced development is one of the problems of Iranian  cities. Ignoring  the past including the historic environment, buildings and structures in terms of various issues, in addition to the heterogeneity and creating chaos in the urban landscape and the gradual loss of identity of the cities and cultural mismatch can  create other problems. Urban designing and modern urbanism in historical cities should coordinate with urbanism regulations governing these buildings and designing before considering regulations of urbanism designing is completely unacceptable in these context buildings. This study tries to consider the charters, declarations and  universal principles proposed in the context of designing historical buildings as well as investigating how to design the architecture in this area and how to maintain these buildings buildings in the heart of the new urban developments. Principles and regulations extracted in this study are an effort to systematize the new designs and interventions in the historical building buildings. Providing such regulations and scrutinizing the details of architectural design principles derived from indigenous identity and urbanism architecture of the area is the most important step that should now be included in the management and conservation programs of these buildings
