Abstract :
Contextualism as a holistic approach in designing an artificial environment, by understanding the mental and objective structure of the text and context as an evolutionary event in physical, natural, historical and social-cultural dimensions and by linking the perception and perception of the audience with the context, seeks to create meaning. Is artificial. The present article seeks to explain the prevailing dimensions, features and components in this field by examining the evolution of contextualism theory in architecture and urban planning by expressing the views of experts and examples. In this regard, after examining the background of the subject and stating the relevant definitions, the scope of the field discussion in architecture and urban planning in the opinions and thoughts of experts has been studied in order to formulate the theoretical foundations of research and the position of contextualism in some contemporary architectural movements. The results of studies indicate that contextualism initially paid attention to purely physical dimensions, but in its evolutionary course has focused its field of study on social, cultural and human development aspects and attention to cultural, social, ecological and human relations issues. It has replaced the topics of mere form, style and aesthetics. Emphasis on the development of environment-human relations. Emphasis on place recovery, strengthening the position of human values in architecture and urban design, the importance of social meaning of the environment, using environmental capabilities to achieve sustainable development and. .... is one of the strategies of contextualism approach.
