REPRESENTATION OF GEOMETRIC PATTERNS IN SYMBOLS
Abstract
This work sheds light on the symbolic expression of geometric patternsin architecture and their semantic significance. Geometric shapes — circles, squares, polygons, and star-shaped compositions — represent the ideas of divine order, balance, and eternity in architectural decoration. In particular, geometric patterns are widely used as symbols in Islamic architecture, giving buildings not only aesthetic but also spiritual meaning. The study shows that geometric patterns are an important tool in understanding architecture as an artistic and philosophical space.
