Abstract

People's responses to architectural forms and blocks vary 
according to their backgrounds and according to their 
understanding of the theory on which the building design is
based, and the assimilation process often differs from the fact that
the recipient is an ordinary person or an architect, so it is often 
affected by the reaction based on his performance and comfort in 
the case of the average person, while the architect is often 
ignored These feelings and the architectural work receives 
through a unified theory that respects standards abstract from 
feelings, this unified theory called by some theorists to restore 
the lost meanings of the intangible architecture that modernity
concealed its features and produced forms that are not connected
without meaning, and the current Egyptian architecture has 
become a continuation of the international style that concealed 
the features of identity In countries and their features erased their
traditional building materials, hence the research raises an
important question about the extent to which the Egyptian 
architectural reality was affected by modernity and the extent to 
which contemporary architects resorted to the unified
architectural theory that was established by the mathematician
and architectural theorist Nikos Salinger's, the research is based 
on the analytical approach to trace the influence of both theories 
On the Egyptian reality through a quantitative analysis to
measure the language of architectural design and regional
adaptation, to reach the final output The study indicated that most
of the buildings follow the international style of modernity,
which calls for a mechanical study to work with the unified
architectural theory in Egypt.
