Abstract

Bazars have been the primary human centers for human gatherings and a place to exchange goods. People gather in bazars with different interests and desires, and the success of these spaces is proportional to their use and presence. Spatial sequence in Iranian architecture is a spiritual movement. There are different models for designing commercial spaces, but in order to know the parameters affecting people, according to the internal needs and interests, the method of cognitive science can be used so that the behavior of people can be examined accordingly and the final parameters can be extracted. The current research is analytical-descriptive research in terms of its structure, which in terms of its main goal is considered to be of the type of applied and developmental research, which can also be used as an exploratory research approach considering the lack of previous research on the concept of the experience of space in traditional bases in approach to spatial continuity. According to the course of theoretical foundations, the effective factors in the influence of the experience of space in traditional bazars are considered and by explaining the branch of landscape architecture to it, these factors are tested by experts and elites for indexing using the Delphi method. In the result the indexes of diversity, behavioral activity and spatial continuity have the most weight in the opinion of experts, but if it is examined in methods such as questionnaires, other results can be extracted.
