Abstract

Narrative in architecture (NA) places a premium on human experiences and the necessity of transforming them into stories. It prioritizes a building's meaning over its functionality. A common perception of architecture is that of art and an opportunity for imaginative expression. However, it also has a major effect on how cultural identity is shaped. Buildings and structures can serve as markers of the heritage, values, and beliefs of a community, and a virtual spaces' (VS) design via using the developed Virtual Reality Modelling Language (VRML); that can capture its distinctive personality. This paper clarifies how the relationships in buildings and Scenario-Based Design (SBD) came to be associated with the stories and events that took place in these cities or within the structures themselves using Story-Telling of Design (STD) concept, in addition to their function and social connection. People's memories or historical events serve as the source material for architectural projects, therefore; the narrative approach in architecture is connected to events and memories of places through Story-Telling (ST) approaches. This paper exposed two of the most important narrative architectural buildings; as iconic case-studies for (NA) indoor and abroad; to adopt historical buildings' identity in the neoteric architectural era; to tackle a framework for buildings and structures to settle its identity and telling history.
