Designing an Azarbaijan’s Carpet Museum Using Persian Garden Patterns

Abstract

This study was chiefly aimed to recognize and regenerate Azarbaijan’s art of carpet within Iranian society by establishing an environment for the social activities of various groups based on Azarbaijan’s cultural and artistic activities, in the city of Tabriz, Iran. This goal is met by providing appropriate physical spaces using existing Iranian architectural patterns and also by establishing spaces like Persian Gardens, which have throughout history associated with the patterns of the Paradise. On the other hand, man has always been familiar with art, culture, nature and his surrounding environment, and this has been noted over the course of history. Man has always sought to preserve the existing art, which indicates his past culture, civilization and history, while seeking to spread these components throughout his life. Meantime, museums have been vitally recreating environments for meeting social needs and expanding the artistic cultures of other societies and making them known to people in those societies. These environments have also served to meet the above goals in society and enable users to work and involve in these activities. After field and library data were analyzed, design software was used to present the findings in the form of a model to meet the needs and identify the art of carpet and its significance to people in society and other societies within an architectural plan.
