Background It is perhaps difficult to believe that recognizing the needs of each society can form the main lines and policies of policy makers at the national and commercial levels. But the trend of structural changes in the production and supply of products and services in the world has complicated the type of consumer behavior that has changed the lifestyle and culture of societies. And in every age people lived in a private lifestyle. Purpose In this article, we have tried to design a new model in Iranian lifestyle by passing the concept of lifestyle and models of Western and Iranian cultures. Method This research is in the context of qualitative research, which is carried out using a foundation-based approach to data theory. The population of this study was 17 selected university professors who participated in the profound interview as the main contributors to the study. . Findings Based on the Grounded Theory, at the theoretical coding stage, 900 data were identified and encoded using Max-Q Da software, and then, in the axial coding step, 62 concepts were categorized and selected in the coding step In four main categories, the final model was designed using software. And then, this model is modeled on 62 indicators in three Persian, Azary, and Arabic languages through the data panel. Conclusion The obtained model shows four categories of factors in the formation of lifestyle: environmental factors, individual factors, human factors and attitudes and values, and these factors have different values in different ethnicities and are more than models The previous one is more comprehensive.

Aim The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of using Ideality pillar of TRIZ on the performance of the design of architecture students. Method A semi-experimental research is carried out in the form of pre-test and post-test design with a control group. The statistical population includes the architecture students of Najafabad University. The research sample consists of 24 students in the control group and 23 students in the experiment group. The control groups’ design process has no training or new method but the teacher of the experimental group leads the students to use TRIZ Ideality pillar during their design. At the end of the semester, the design of all students was evaluated by using a performance assessment method by three teachers. a covariance test was used to analyze the data. Results The results showed that teaching and using Ideality enhances the design performance of students. Conclusion According to the findings, the use of creativity techniques, especially the theory of the TRIZ that encourages both convergent and divergent thinking, is essential in the design process of architecture.
