Due to the extent and variance of resources, both qualitative and quantitative research methods are used. After identifying the main design factors through a survey research method, the examples are qualitatively analyzed to identify effective indicators and their priorities and efficiency by means of purposeful questionnaires. The findings of the paper show that new needs and opportunities of a society should never be considered apart, but must be understood in a meaningful interaction with sustainable traditional, cultural, native and spiritual values of the society.
