Iran contemporary architecture such as a new-normal event (mental representation of the critical reading of post-modernism in architecture)

Aims: The enlightenment of new age has been tied to radicalism from the beginning; as far as it no longer reproduces itself and instead of paying attention to the realization of desired situation, it justifies and defends the existing situation and in an critical interpretation, it expresses a contradictory reality in a reading of order after disorder deals; which may destroy itself! And as a new norm, it deals with the mental representation of architecture essence; that this New-Normal is the normal state after a crisis. Therefore, the purpose of this research is an abstract manifestation of the architectural event in a radical architecture, by functional program and practical oriented, far from Identity violation in Iran contemporary architecture. Methodology: This research, has been analyzed in qualitative method. The data has collected and analyzed in semi-structured interviews form, and the answers in interview on 17th, the highest level of saturation has been reached, and after refining, categorized and connected with the axis category; that is the New-Normal event architecture. According to the average agreement of 90.37% and the coverage of the criterion level of more than 0.6 kappa, the research quality index is accepted and the validity and reliability is confirmed and the result of research can be evaluated and interpreted by examining the criteria of adaptation, generalization, capability of understanding and control. Findings: The findings show that the research summation of the causal variables’ result in the mediating conditions of the existing situation, creates an event; which, as a New-Normal, deals with the mental representation of architectural identity with a realistic and critical approach, and in a self-reflective crisis of the continuous change of threshold situations, it is evolving into a radical alternative in a New-Normal situation; which due to its ambiguity, openness and indeterminacy, results in a temporary transition between alternative situations. Conclusion: It seems that the history of Iranian architecture needs a new paradigm; to show that despite the occurrence of any event in any new situation, the reality will not change; In this way, it represents the nature of contemporary Iranian architecture - in a new format.

Abstract

Aims: The enlightenment of new age has been tied to radicalism from the beginning; as far as it no longer reproduces itself and instead of paying attention to the realization of desired situation, it justifies and defends the existing situation and in an critical interpretation, it expresses a contradictory reality in a reading of order after disorder deals; which may destroy itself! And as a new norm, it deals with the mental representation of architecture essence; that this New-Normal is the normal state after a crisis. Therefore, the purpose of this research is an abstract manifestation of the architectural event in a radical architecture, by functional program and practical oriented, far from Identity violation in Iran contemporary architecture. Methodology: This research, has been analyzed in qualitative method. The data has collected and analyzed in semi-structured interviews form, and the answers in interview on 17th, the highest level of saturation has been reached, and after refining, categorized and connected with the axis category; that is the New-Normal event architecture. According to the average agreement of 90.37% and the coverage of the criterion level of more than 0.6 kappa, the research quality index is accepted and the validity and reliability is confirmed and the result of research can be evaluated and interpreted by examining the criteria of adaptation, generalization, capability of understanding and control. Findings: The findings show that the research summation of the causal variables’ result in the mediating conditions of the existing situation, creates an event; which, as a New-Normal, deals with the mental representation of architectural identity with a realistic and critical approach, and in a self-reflective crisis of the continuous change of threshold situations, it is evolving into a radical alternative in a New-Normal situation; which due to its ambiguity, openness and indeterminacy, results in a temporary transition between alternative situations. Conclusion: It seems that the history of Iranian architecture needs a new paradigm; to show that despite the occurrence of any event in any new situation, the reality will not change; In this way, it represents the nature of contemporary Iranian architecture - in a new format.
