Abstract

 
Islamic architecture was ignored because of the appearance of the technology especially parametric design. This led to the transformation of the architectural form from static blocks to dynamic blocks in addition to borrowings from ecological natural forms that focused on producing idea. So Islamic architecture faced the challenges of advanced technology in linking heritage with contemporary. This is to ensure continuity and communication with the movement of life and the expansion of the circle of civilized contacts between peoples. Then it’s necessary to find a methodology to link between parametric architecture and Islamic architecture for its revivalism.
