Keywords:
Components of contextualism, Regeneration interventions, Improvement, Renovation, ReconstructionAbstract
In today's era, urban development is at the cost of destruction of architectural heritage, industrial architecture, gardens, and their history. Paying attention to the context for reviving industrial tissues and cavities can be an important approach to create tissue recovery. However, contextualism can be effective in improvement, renovation, or reconstruction processes. This research seeks to know the components of contextualism that are effective in improving the dysfunctional tissues of Tehran city. This research is qualitative and quantitative method. Qualitatively, semi-structured interviews were used to extract contextual components and distributed among 28 experts using ATLASTI8 software. Quantitatively, to check effectiveness of each element in improving the texture (renovation, reconstruction), Likert scale questionnaire was given to 384 engineers and architectural designers in Tehran engineering organization. Questionnaire results were analyzed with JMPSAS17. Results showed that highest factor load in the spatial contextualism components related to good feeling of security as (1.000) and the lowest related to beauty component of the adjacent axis as (0.343). The environmental contextualism, the highest coefficient of determination is the positive influence of the surrounding environment as (0.695) and the lowest is the collective protection with prohibitions value (0.356). Socio-cultural contextualism, cultural attractiveness as (0.951), the highest factor is cultural diversity as (0.306). Physical contextualism, the highest factor contribution is related to physical beauty and physical lighting as (1.000) and the lowest to appropriate positioning as (0.511).
