چکیده مقاله :

This research deals with the relationship between the courtyard and living spaces in contemporary and traditional houses. The purpose of this research is to provide a method for spatial analysis of the house with the aim of improving spatial relations. The case study is the city of Hamadan in Iran. Three contemporary houses and three traditional houses were selected for analysis. After selecting the houses, their analysis was done in Space Syntax software, UCL Depth Map. Also, to understand the types of behavioral systems in the houses, several residents were interviewed. The results show how spatial relationships in traditional and contemporary houses have changed based on different behaviors and also changing climatic conditions. The main living room, where people spend most of their time in traditional houses, has less physical and visual connectivity with the courtyard compared to other living spaces. Meanwhile, contemporary houses pay a lot of attention to the visual relationship between the main living space and the courtyard.
