Islamic architecture's impact on European design is a manifestation of centuries of cultural interaction, commerce, and conquest. Islamic architectural forms, including domes, arches, geometric patterns, and calligraphy, were introduced into European forms through contact in Spain, Sicily, and the Crusades. This research examines how Islamic architectural knowledge was transferred to Europe by trade, diplomatic correspondence, and artistic borrowing. Key case studies, such as the Alhambra Palace, the Great Mosque of Córdoba, and Spanish Mudejar architecture, demonstrate the lasting influence of Islamic aesthetics on European buildings. Moreover, this study investigates the legacy of Islamic architecture in contemporary European design, and it discusses how aspects like ornamental tilework, vaulted arches, and elaborate arabesque motifs continue to shape contemporary architectural style. Through a study of Islamic-Europe architectural exchange on the international scale, the present research highlights the extensive long-term influence of Islamic architecture principles on Western countries' building practices.
