Abstract :
Studying past vestiges of the Iranian civilization is expressive of a kind of continuity in past works and interruption in the contemporary era. The continuity results from the communion in philosophy of life and efforts to maintain it and transfer those foundations and Iranian identity criteria to the methods of past. The interruption is due to neglecting the philosophy of life and beliefs of the society in creating contemporary methods. Thus, the main purpose of this study is to explain the theoretical framework of the philosophy of life and beliefs of the society. Such a basis provides the possibility to optimize the revitalization and development of the progressive of civilization. The “concept of transition” that origins from the monotheism beliefs of the Iranian society creates this framework with the criteria of “possibility of transitions” and “reminding transition” and involves many of the principles and criteria of Iranian identity. This article has endeavored to study theoretical documents of the society and cases and MASADIQ especially in Iranian architecture. The results of this research can act as a theoretical framework in harmony with Iranian identity in architectural projects.
