Indicative Architectural Elements and Organization of Plan in Ancient Iran Schools

Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 9, Issue 11

Abstract

One of the important factors in analyzing ancient Iran educational spaces is recognizing the architecture and organization of the plan of such architecture. Plan organization has a special importance in studying the quality of ancient Iran schools considering its role in displaying the spatial relationships and layout and arrangement of the architecture physical elements. This study represents an analysis on cultural and educational changes and their effect on shape changes of ancient Iran schools, including changes in philosophical beliefs, purposes, motivations and educational programs in each era. Beyond such theoretical studies, the shape changes of the schools, including indicative architectural elements and organization of such elements in the set of plan have been studied and interpreted. The study method is interpretive- historical, together with comparative analysis of architectural spaces. In this study, through studying and analyzing the plans and spaces of ancient Iran palaces and aristocratic mansions and recognizing the indicative architectural elements of the same, we have achieved certain theories and hypotheses on architecture of buildings similar to such spaces (ancient Iran schools), inter alia, separation of buildings into internal and external spaces, role and performance of porches and corridors, organizing of building in official and unofficial sectors and spatial variability and existence of various spaces for different educational functionalities, and eventually we have presented likely diagrams of ancient Iran schools plans.
