| Abstract | ||||
| For centuries, Islamic geometrical patterns (IGPs) were designed and built to respond effectively and dynamically to people’s physical, environmental, social, physiological and religious requirements at their time. The architects used to copy-paste various IGPs of the Islamic historical buildings in their design work without understanding the meanings and values that it holds. This way has often caused inappropriate use, regarding time-scale accuracy, architectural- style matching and even identity. In an attempt of handling this misunderstanding, there is a trend of combining technology applications in architecture to recruit IGPs design and maximize its purpose either function or decorative shape. For that, the research will analyze a number of buildings from different countries and cultures with IGPs applied in a technological way. The research proposes different technology techniques in dealing with IGPs in order to enhance the function and other purposes as possible as we can on a large scale. | ||||
