Abstract:   (1313 Views)
The importance of the historical castles of Ilam province is above all because this region, as one of the government centers, was the site of the formation of prominent castles during the Sassanid period, which introduced the political and social structure of that era.  Over time, a number of these monuments have lost their original function and have become abandoned, making their preservation an inevitable necessity. Adaptive reuse through appropriate change of use is an effective solution for the restoration of these valuable buildings.  The main   question of the research is: "How can we help preserve and restore the historical castles of Ilam with an adaptive reuse (AR) approach?" The research method is mixed and data were collected and analyzed from documentary studies and field observations. The statistical population includes ten students of the sixth semester of the Bachelor of Architecture program at Jundi- Shapur University of Technology in Dezful, and the "Architectural Design 3" workshop was chosen as the research context. The results show that the focus of the designs was on creating new spaces and the strategy of annexation was used more than installation and intervention. Also, the annexations were mainly formed in the form of two groups of space and element and the most extensive changes were in the facade materials. The final result indicates that the adaptive reuse approach not only helps to preserve and restore the historical castles of Ilam, but also, in the form of educational projects, improves students' understanding of how to integrate contemporary design with the historical and physical values of heritage buildings.
