Abstract EN
Space and place are among the fundamental concepts in architecture about which many discussions have been held and the complexity and importance of these concepts were focused on.
This research has introduced an approach to better cognition of the architectural concepts based on theory and method of semiology in linguistics.
Hence, at first the research investigates the concepts of space and place and explains their characteristics in architecture.
Then, it reviews the semiology theory and explores its concepts and ideas.
After obtaining the principles of theory and also the method of semiology, they are redefined in an architectural system based on an adaptive method.
Finally, the research offers a conceptual model which is called the semiology approach by considering the architectural system as a system of signs.
The approach can be used to decode the content of meanings and forms and analyses of the architectural mechanism in order to obtain its meanings and concepts.
In this way and based on this approach, the residential architecture of the traditional city of Bushehr – Iran was analyzed as a case of study and its concepts were extracted.
The results of this research demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach in structure detection and identification of an architectural system.
Besides, this approach has the capability to be used in processes of sustainable development and also be a basis for deconstruction of architectural texts.
The research methods of this study are qualitative based on comparative and descriptive analyses.
