Abstract
The way architectures think about different issues from developing plans, perspectives, and views to cross-sections and structure of a building is a common and general one. Regardless of its merits and efficiency, architectures today are caught in a specific architecture language where the boundaries of language create boundaries in the architecture’s world.To step beyond the normal language in architecture, the narration techniques of meta-story text can be used to break the elements of architecture and rebuilt them along new axes.
The study is an attempt to change the normal language in architecture design and achieve a new way of facing architectural issues based on the concepts of meta-story.The type architecture that we try to achieve is the one that motivates users to explore, move, interact, think, or play.
The study was carried out as a content analysis study based on a comparative and innovative study were a combination of deduction and induction were used.The researcher tried to survey the concepts of meta-story and the relationship between story and the spatial narration of architecture. Throughout the study, different types of structure of narrations using the similarities between the two fields were examined and a new structure for architecture design was achieved.
The surveys uncovered a mutual bond between architecture and narration. The structure of post-modern stories featured with parallel and interactive narrations were compared with the structure of designing method in architecture. Through this.the techniques and structure of narration in meta-story text can be used to achieve creativity in designing method.
