Abstract

According to Islamic thought, reaching to God’s ideal perfection is a principal that is naturally a part of human essence. Traditional house considers this fact and thus, is familiar to human nature. Therefore, it is not possible to define the traditional house only based on structure and geometry and even form; instead, the meanings go beyond them. Hidden meanings are based on spiritual realities and invisible; but, can be visualized via different features created by the Allah in the world of being. Different elements of the traditional house surround a central yard and this is not due to the space function or climate needs, but is the result of the architects’ understanding of the spiritual facts. By forming the formless meanings, traditional architects create architectural forms based on their understanding from the great world and thus, generate structures according to the God’s willing. The natural characteristics of the human being that affect the traditional house include the inclination to realism and perfection, creation, blessing and virtue, beauty and spiritual love and worship. Analysis of the mentioned inclinations clarifies the hidden map as the result of RELIGIOUS BELIEFS in traditional house and enables understanding of the invisible layers of thought. When the traditional architect seeks the truth, he reaches to God’s ideal perfection and it is in this state that he is endowed to God’s attributes including the power of creation, differentiation, and illustration. The architect creates in such a way that the components differ from each other and they all illustrate the beauty of God’s almighty. The beauty is in both outer face and spirit. By means of his character originated from God, traditional architect bridges the sensible and the rational worlds. Therefore, he reflects the perfection of the rational world into the sensible one. In other words, the architect transfers the God’s perfection to land’s architecture by help of his spirit’s mirror. This makes the traditional architecture perfect since it has originated from God’s perfection. As the result, in traditional architecture, the materialistic face of the objects unifies with their spiritual character and thus, the objects appear in their real face. The traditional architect points out to the invisible facts of the world of being in the meanings of the architecture. The decent architecture thus is the one that reconciles best the two visible and hidden faces. The paper examines twenty samples of Kerman’s traditional houses and reveals that the invisible face of the traditional house is not measurable with the physical elements and quantity scales; but is evaluated by means of spiritual soul originated from the religion and the perfectionism principle. It is shown that the traditional house has binary maps; a visible one that is originated from the functional needs of its residents and a hidden map that reflects the spiritual knowledge of its architecture. While being independent, the two maps overlap perfectly in responding to the kind of life expected from it. The traditional house reaches to its perfection when the two maps overlap completely and its invisible face turns into the divine features.
