Abstract

Since Iran's revolution, the population of cities has been growing
dramatically due to several reasons which are not discussed in this thesis.
As a result of this growth, there have been 2chief problems in making
sufficient number of buildings for Iranian citizens.

The first problem is with the shortcomings which exist in house
construction and the second one is new houses which are inappropriate
for Iranian families.
These problems can be specifically felt more in other provinces than in
Tehran.

As I came to Rasht in 1997and started my career in house designing
section, I encountered a number of problems.
Most people here, have their house plans modified before or after the
construction,payalot of money for this remodeling and try to adjust them
according to their own needs.

Most of these houses are designed by civil engineers or architects based
on the theories which are being taught at universities in Iran and they are
also monitored and accepted by some organizations.

This thesis tries to know more about behaviors and identify the needs of
people who live in Rasht.
It also attempts to present a guide line for house designers to do their
duties better than before, along with some designed samples for people to
use as models.
During the research, we realized that the policies might change during a
short period of time,thus,we cant apply the guide line for the future.
That’s why we try to show a model to make out the current situation and
update our information effectively on house designing and the needs of
society regarding this model.
Multiple methods-both quantitative and qualitative-were considered to
approach the basic data, which were adopted to examine the objectives of
this research.
In addition 800 samples were applied in order to figure out the influence
of residential behaviors and peoples favored models.
These samples were processed under municipality license and were
chosen randomly. These houses are designed based on the land lords' orders who want to
sell their houses as soon as possible and are according to peoples likes
and needs.
Both a questionnaire and the observation method along with taking
notes and photography, which was done by architecture students, were
employed for data gathering during the work field.

There has always been a big problem using the questionnaires to gather
data here in Iran and that is the lack of trust on the questioners.

Mostly there is not accurate information about the salary or the price of
houses because people assume that the questioners are related to the
governmental tax and ministration, hence in this project, observation was
used more than questionnaires.

Meanwhile quantitative data have been analyzed through statistical
methods. (spss)

The sample of this thesis consists of mediocre families which is the
representative family type in Rasht.

Accordingly approaching this criterion, the samples were chosen from
locations such as Golsar and Manzarrieh, in which most residents are
civil-servants.

Acknowledgment

I should like to thank the individuals who have contributed ideas,
inspiration and support for this study. First and foremost, I would like to
acknowledge and appreciate my wife for her invaluable motivation and
patience.

I am also grateful to her veracious assistance in taking care of our son all
on her own while I was away on trips a long time.
In particular, my special appreciation to my mother and father for
providing a stimulating and convenient environment which has played the
main role in my achievement, specifically during the war( Iran-Iraq War)
and other crises in my life.

I have been incredibly fortunate to have the companion and guide lines of
two supervisors, prof. Peter Berten and prof. Dr.Pakzad.

This study would not be successfully done without my colleagues and
specially the deans.

Cooperation in faculty of art and architecture in Guilan University.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to them for their intellectual
supports.

At last but not least, my special thanks to all students of mine that have
helped me trough out the research for filling the questionnaire and
collecting information.

To all these people I offer my profound gratitude. I only hope that they
will like the way it has turned out.
