Abstract

Kish Island is known as one of the most important Iranian centers of business and recreation. Its specific geographic situation and its name which has become a brand of urban tourism among Iranians, have increased attention to the island and subsequently added to the constructions there to meet the needs of tourists and investors. Structures that turn the southern part of kish into a workshop for beautification, prosperity and inquiry of northern and eastern part of the island. So this Island has witnessed many constructions due to the growth in population and increased demands. High-rise buildings and luxuriant designs are among the basic principles of these constructions which are based on the spirit of the time. However, the spirit of place (physical and content aspects) of Kish Island, which has its own defined principles has been ignored. The identity of a city plays an important role in its formation as a place. However, in modern times, due to the changes in some basic concepts, understanding the components of a city's identity has become a basic question. So the thing that is now more important than the other points is protection and restoring the spirit of living (Revitalization) of these areas and also maximum utilization of its potentials. Identity is a term whose depth of meaning cannot be clarified using letters and words, any part of the earth like any object or organism has its own identity, spirit and unique features, as well as events that can only be found in that place. In simple words, every corner of the earth like the man has a metaphysical aspect besides the physical one. Physical and metaphysical properties together make every place's identity. In this article we want to find the identity components in Kish Island and after that we can maximize our use of the potentials of the place in accordance with the environment to achieve socio-economic prosperity. The research method used in this study is interpretation and analysis. First, by collecting and analyzing related data collected from literature review and library research, the theoretical issues are clarified. Then, research findings and conclusions are presented based on data collected through field study in Kish Island. Based on findings of the library research and questionnaires it was concluded that 3 groups play a more important role than others in introducing identity-making elements of Kish: 1-Designers and policy makers, 2 – tourists and visitors, and most importantly 3-residents. And the elements which make the urban character and identity of the island can be classified as follows in term of physical and content dimensions. So Identity is an integral part of the city just as each person is living with and is recognized by his/her identity. Proper understanding of the spirit and identity of place and combining it with the needs resulting from the spirit of time can help reveal the inner beauty of cities beyond just decorating it. It can open a window for the architecture of Iran and Kish Island.
