The impact of technological developments in architecture

Abstract

Technology in today's societies is one of the influential factors in human life. Since the beginning of history, man has been looking for ways to make his life easier. Therefore, at all times, it seeks to create security and ease in life by using various methods. By thinking about the issues raised about technology and its consequences, the growing changes in human life can be felt. Every day, with the supply and introduction of new technological products in human societies, a new consumer culture emerges following this discussion, which includes the pillars and dimensions of cultural, social, and economic societies. As an integral member of human societies, architecture includes all dimensions (cultural, social, economic) of societies. At the first glance, technology looks like tools and machines, but by pondering and reasoning in philosophical texts about technology, it is clear that technology affects a wider range. It includes the process, the way of thinking and the attitude to the discussion and the way of doing the work and the result and the final effect, which in architecture includes thinking and theoretical foundations, the method and process of design and construction, materials and tools and machines and finally the final effect. take Therefore, it includes human activities and material elements. The combination of these two causes the creation and construction of architectural works. Technology, after architecture, is named as a science that is creating temporal-spatial coherence with its artistic, social, and cultural aspects. The advancement of technology has an effective role in facilitating the current life and the relationships that govern it and the process of architectural design. Also, the advancement of technology has a significant contribution to the new process of architectural design and creating ease in the current human life.
