Study of the impact of contemporary architecture on Islamic motifs (or geometric patterns) in mosques

Abstract

- One necessary point in constructing biological life of people is the existence of common roots among a certain class of people. In one hand, these common roots such as beliefs are equal in one part of the world, so it conducts architecture’s developing path through the same way in that part of the world, and on the other hand, it fills all concepts of architecture with value significance. Perhaps it is due to this point of view which considersarchitecture of each part of the world as an identity for that part. In the modern era especially in the field of ideas’ interaction, the process of globalization needs to apply some elements in biological society which play adominant role in people’s beliefs, and what will be more desirable than architectural signs in environment which are directly judged by all people. The architecture of mosques is regarded as the most prominent proof of architecture derivedfrom Islamic art and instructions which can be the turning point of architecture’s evolution in the field of Islamic art. In the present research, we have tried to study the instances of mosques’ architecture in Iran and contemporary world based on analyzing intellectuals’ perspectives toward Islamic art. Through this research, It is expected for researchers to tangibly comprehend the process of evolution in mosques and Islamic centers’ architecture as the most fundamental sign of Islamic art in world and in the modern era, and to clarify that in comparison to various interests of world’s designers and architects, which patterns of Islamic art hidden in these signs are more stable.
