Abstract

Research Aim: The main purpose of this research is to design a mosque based on the principles and concepts of the transcendental wisdom philosophy For this purpose, we first study the concepts and principles of transcendental wisdom philosophy versus schools and its effects on historical works as well as the proper modeling of traditional Iranian architecture in two conceptual and physical aspects. And then the principle guidelines to achieve the proper design of the mosque will present. Research method: General research method in this research is Qualitative combination and is historical and descriptive interpretative study. Its data obtained mainly through observation and archival studies (documentary and library). Design guidelines through the analysis of collected data are determined. This research is carried out in a structural search system focused on the effect of philosophical thinking in architecture. The analysis of information is qualitative analytical method. The techniques or approaches that are necessary for understanding research are required here is determined. Finding: A building built on the basis of wisdom has good appearance and gentility. This wisdom shapes the principles of design in some cases, including the axis of the design, the general orientation of the building, and the way the neighborhood can be seen. The entrance space in Iranian architecture has been very important and has been considered in the definition of the entrance space of human presence and its attention to the interior in order to prepare for the presence of a different space through the mentioned elements. Archetype of the Holy Movement is significant in the design of various parts of space, specialy the most important part that is entrance of the building. Conclusion: In the recognition of traditional architecture from Mulla Sadra's intellectual, the results suggest that an architectural building should have existential authenticity for survival. Existence of existential justification means that the architectural dimension of the prevailing material aspect will prevail. So that in an architectural building, one should seek to emerge the intangible aspect of the world of meaning in the sense of the essence. To achieve this goal, conceptual principles fit into the framework of the architecture. In a permanent architecture of architecture, it is desirable to use symbolic elements and metaphors to inspire transcendental concepts and attract the attention of the audience to pure existence. In addition, to maximize the impact of intuitive funds on the audience, the concept of manifestation can be use. This concept can be cement in the form of a manifestation of light, to stylize the space and to strengthen the spiritual sense, and to manifest the concept of unity in plurality by using the images of a wide range of monotonous images in the architectural building. The crystallization of these concepts can be achieved use of archetype architectural structures.
