THE EFFECT OF CULTURE AND BEHAVIORAL PERCEPTION ON SUSTAINABILITY THE ARCHITECTURAL STYLE OF CLAY BUILDINGS IN HADHRAMOUT REGION, YEMEN
Journal Title: World Journal of Engineering Research and Technology - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The effect of culture and behavioral perception on architectural style can be achieved on two basic levels. The first level is conceptualperceptual and the second level is physical-formal. The study of the effect of culture and behavioral perception on architectural style requires an objective tool for testing. It was found from previous literature that there is a special relationship between culture and behavioral perception and architectural style. Thus there is a clear conceptual status for the objective tool and method through which we can study and examine the effect of culture and behavioral perception on architectural style. The thing that makes up this relationship, i.e., the statement of the problem in the present study. This study aims at highlighting the relationship between culture and behavioral perception on architectural style. The thing that can be used as a continuous detective method to study the architecture in a certain region. This can be carried out through the implementation of continuous observation tool in the architectural style in both levels conceptual-perceptual and the physical- formal. The main hypothesis of this study is based on the possibility of adopting architectural style as a method for studying and extrapolating the effect of culture and behavioral perception in the history of architecture. The thing that referred to as permanent system in this study. To approve the study hypothesis and achieve its main objective, the researcher has adopted a sequential approach based on an analytical and critical study of previous literature concerning with architectural style as to highlight its conceptual properties. This might lead to finding out the relationship between culture and the perceptual and physical properties of architectural style, so as to achieve the concept of architectural continuity. The inhabitants' awareness of the architectural heritage environment will support the study hypothesis. Finally, this study seeks for certain guidelines for sustainable effect of culture and behavioral perception on architectural style of clay buildings in Hadhramout region.
