Interactive architectural approach (interactive architecture)‎ : an effective and adaptive process for architectural design

Abstract EN

This research attempts to offer a new approach for architectural design process that the concepts of interaction and multi-relations are being achieved through it.

This approach, which is identified as an interactive architecture, suggests a process that a dynamic and mutual relation will create among all factors and parameters of design and the effects of each factor or parameters on final design will be considered.

In fact, the main axis of the suggested approach is comprehensive interaction with all various aspects of design, since the design problems have multi-aspects, mostly.

Thus, the final design will be resulted based on these mutual relations and it is a production which will have a maximum and optimum adaption with all factors and parameters.

What makes this attitude more significant and crucial is the chaotic situation that is produced in architecture and urban designing of most cities especially in developing countries and leads to lack of identity in these cities.

So, the interactive approach can be able to eliminate the challenges and create the fields of sustainable architecture and urban development through an effective method.

However, this process encounters to some constraints and challenges along with some potentials which are discussed in this essay.

The research method is analytical-interpretative and based on qualitative analyses.
