The Impact of Modern Architecture on Iranian Architecture

The phenomenon of modernity and the modernist style of thinking is one of the most prominent cultural characteristics of contemporary philosophy. Given the developments of the past century, Iran has transformed into a modern country in the realms of social, political, cultural, and economic aspects, and these changes have had a significant impact on societal thinking, leading to the incorporation of Western ideologies into various fields within the country. This new way of thinking has created a profound rift in the fields of architecture and urban planning, separating Iran from its several-thousand-year-old architectural heritage based on the structure of its social identity of that era and introducing a completely different era in terms of ideology, which, after several decades, is now evident in Iran's cities. With the knowledge gained from European modern architecture, one can now examine the consequences of this architectural style in the third world and Iran, as Iranian post-modern architecture is not merely borrowed from the blueprint of modern architecture, but it is adapted to the semi-modern society. To identify the characteristics of Iranian modern architecture, one must examine the intersection of modern architecture and modern society, as these features define the architecture of contemporary perception.
