Abstract

Undoubtedly, public spaces can be considered as an essential factor, which could contribute to urban arrangement, create and maintain a strong local center and enhance the quality of superior environment and the sense of citizenship. Moreover, integrity has always been the most basic structural qualities and one of the key principles of cities. Integrated urban spaces exhibit the integrated structure of spatial organization in a city where, not only conjunction and space functions are considered, but also identity finds its place in the complex urban system. Therefore, the processes of planning, designing and construction of urban spaces could be helpful for solving structural problems in urban models such as lack of integrity in cities and their spatial analysis. The main purpose of this study is to present a conceptual model of an integrated network for urban spaces in the process of decision-making. Undoubtedly, such networks that strengthen the structure and integrity of a city bring about socio-economic growth and prosperity for inhabitants. Therefore, this study seeks to propose a conceptual model for developing integrated urban spaces network. The main research methods are content analysis and inductive reasoning. The main approach adopted in the analysis and design is that of "living community" in New Urbanism movement. The results reveal that urban spaces are located in a logic network as transects, and to achieve spatial integrity, the continuity of transverse parts of the city must be maintained, as provided in the form of a continuity matrix.

Abstract

One of the effective strategies for achieving sustainability and creating interaction between the “conservation and development of urban heritage” is to maintain “integrity” in historic cities. The definition of integrity, in relation to the definition of the special values of urban heritage, is important. Reviewing international conservation documents and conventions, as well as relevant theoretical perspectives, indicates that the evolution of the concept of integrity has been the result of both sources, with an emphasis on the principle of conservation and the conservation of heritage significances. It then becomes associated with the concept of “authenticity” in convey of significance, and ultimately aligns with the concept of sustainability and sustainable development in "conserving significance " and "transferring significance." The present study aims to explain and recognize the relationship between the concept of integrity and the sustainable conservation and development of urban heritage. Therefore, the approach of this research is fundamental, and the dominant strategy is content analysis, in order to provide a conceptual framework that, on the one hand, focuses on the concept of integrity and the conservation and convey of heritage significances over time, and on the other hand, ensures the secure and convey of significances to future generations through the concept of sustainability. Therefore, the concepts of "convey significance “and “conservation significance" are vital and essential in the process of sustainable conservation and development of urban heritage.
