My book Spatial Organization which I wrote long ago, became my most cited book on the Scholar site, where thesis and dissertation citations were not even recorded. Academics in my country needed my expertise in Environmental-Behavioral issues. I am happy to contribute significantly to society and the relevant sector. Here, I would like to update this topic.
I want to discuss the subject by mentioning its place in general architectural theory. First, I must emphasize that there is a theory of architecture. A discipline without a theory is not a discipline. Theory in architecture is an organic, evolutionary discourse that describes practice and production, identifies the difficulties therein, and has a holistic structure determined by them. These feedbacks between architectural theory and practice form the basis of the discipline’s development. The essence of architecture, which consists of structure, function, aesthetics, and meaning, is fed by interpretations such as model, type, order, form, form and style-attitude that it accumulates or creates in the face of various building needs and, of course, building and material technologies.
