ملخص المقالة :
Nowadays, due to the increase in diseases, patients spend a long time in hospitals; Therefore, these centers are important as a container for the treatment and recovery of the patient. In the modern world, where most of the treatment spaces rely on technology and the advancement of medical methods, nature, an effective factor on the treatment and human health, has been given less attention, and as a result, the environment of the treatment centers has turned into dry and soulless spaces. This research was carried out with the aim of explaining the effective indicators in the quality of therapeutic spaces with the attitude of biophilic architecture from the point of view of the treatment staff, patients and companions. In the qualitative part, targeted sampling was done with 30 experts and professors of architecture and an exploratory interview was conducted with them. The quantitative part was selected by random cluster sampling of a hospital in Kerman city and the questionnaire was completed with its clients and medical staff. The minimum sample size with a variance of 1 and an error of 0.1 was considered to be 384 people. The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by using the opinions of experts and architectural specialists, and its reliability is also based on Cronbach's alpha coefficient equal to 0.879, which indicates the high reliability and appropriateness of the tool. The results of the research show that proximity to water, landscape, thermal diversity and air flow, visual connection with nature, dynamic and diffused light are the most important characteristics of biophilic architecture to improve the quality of therapeutic spaces.
