摘要

Abyaneh, a historic village in Isfahan Province, Iran, comprises five neighborhoods with heritage sites, including houses from the Safavid, Qajar, and Pahlavi periods. Given the village’s evolving architecture, understanding the spatial geometry of houses across these periods is essential. For that reason, this study aims to analyze spatial layouts, focusing on the relationships between spaces during the mentioned historic eras, using Space Syntax theory via a Rhino and Grasshopper plugin named Syntactic. By employing this plugin, quantitative indicators, including Integration, Control, Choice, and Entropy, are evaluated through justified graphs to assess spatial relationships and architectural evolution in Abyaneh’s residences. Findings show these indicators are interrelated, reflecting common spatial principles. Safavid chaharsofeh and Qajar central courtyards, with lower Entropy, exhibit higher Integration, Control, and Choice. Conversely, rooms with higher Entropy and lower Integration have reduced Control and Choice. Despite varying geometries across periods, some indicators remain consistent, reflecting houses’ adherence to inhabitants’ cultural, social, religious, and economic principles.
