Nowadays the abundance of ideas and information in our world makes it challenging to extract reliable meanings and to develop knowledge that is not influenced by the subjective bodies of its producers. This research seeks to understand the ideology of architectural design and its derivative power to shape the form of knowledge. Ideology possesses a commitment-driven nature that shapes its capacity to form and modify a set of ideas and actions that are directly related to human experience and their environment. Architectural ideology and the knowledge of the discipline are examined by looking at the alternative ideologies of the various architectural theoreticians in different times. The research observes the potential of alternative ideologies and reveals numerous relevant factors to put importance in architectural discourse. The findings of this study illustrate that contemporary practices demand pluralistic and participatory approaches in addressing the societal, environmental, and political challenges of today’s world and incorporate strategies for social equity and inclusive design solutions.
