Abstract :
Our cities are seldom a place for staying, isolation of functions, priority of vehicle access and therefore monotone residential areas have made cities for us merely in charge of going and passing and required services, there is no place for gathering and belonging to society. The feeling that nowadays our life in in permanent lack of time has had a main role in such a perception.Beyond an area for meeting the requirements, the city is a public area and the credit for the social coherence has a direct relation with the amount of the time devoted to optional activities in the city. What we call contemplation can be fulfilled with a dedication of time to it, and beyond that, we argue that contemplation is the very perception of time and temporality.Islamic geometric patterns are known with an invitation for contemplation and we are convinced that the very contemplation is an invitation for staying and taking part in task of seeing. This that how it would be possible is our primary question. The later and main question is how could we find an equivalent in our cities?This essay is performed through case study, primarily with a study in perception of Islamic geometric patterns and grasping of now and call for contemplation, we expand our study to approach analysis of the last decade remarkable specialists. With the evaluation performed by the composer approaches taken by SANAA architects and Jan Gehl and Peter Oldenburg acted as the matter of inquiry.
