Contextual architecture, also known as Contextualism is a philosophical approach in architectural theory that refers to the designing of a structure in response to the literal and abstract characteristics of the environment in which it is built.[1][2] Contextual architecture contrasts modernist architecture, which value the imposition of their own characteristics and values upon the built environment.[3]
Contextual architecture is usually divided into three categories: vernacular architecture, regional architecture, and critical regionalism[1] all of which also inform the complementary architecture movement.[4]
