Abstract

Deviation is one of the most important concepts discussed in various architectural and non-architectural theses when addressing the topic of creative production. It involves breaking away from the familiar and surpassing established architectural rules to create unique and excellent products that are characterized by their creativity and aesthetic appeal. Recognizing the significance of this concept in shaping contemporary architectural production, the research endeavors to explore the concept of connective displacement in architecture and delve into its essential aspects. The research identifies the research problem as the "cognitive deficiency surrounding connective displacement in the semantic structures embedded in architecture." The objective is to provide a clear understanding of connective displacement in the semantic structures present in architecture and to enable the identification of its specificity within the structures of any architectural product or collection of products. The research methodology involves establishing a procedural definition of displacement in architecture, reviewing architectural studies, exploring literary theses, and applying these indicators to two contemporary Iraqi architectural projects. The final stages of the research include discussing the results of the application and presenting the key conclusions at both theoretical and applied levels.
