Culture and identity are the interwoven aspects that altogether helps to create integrity and uniqueness in the community and architecture.in this era of globalization, there is an urgent need for the establishment of a skyline that is a representation of one’ unique culture and thereby forms their identity. This relation can help to form an architecture that represents one’s cultural identity. The paper uses a qualitative approach to obtain that various parameters of architecture can be together used for maintaining the cultural identity of a place, region or a community that would generate the sense of place for the people. Art and architecture are the two main components that have one of the aims of depiction and representation. The culture that forms the core of the society needs to be given significance in one or the other way. Culture thus forms the intangible aspect of our daily life. if architectural identity gets described in culture and tradition, the unique identities of every place or region would be maintained. The research would explain the use of architecture as a physical tool for the conversion of intangible aspects of culture into a tangible one giving significance to the traditions and beliefs that we might have forgotten. Place include the people’s sentiments, feelings, emotions, memories, may be future and history as well related to the space. So, in order to create a sense of place it is mandatory that people relate to the region or place through its architecture even in the foreign land, which will connect them to their culture and thus forms their identity
