Reflects the tenet of privacy to be formed of the dead-end in Iranian urbanism after Islam

The architecture and construction of a city in each culture are subject to the conditions it created for that culture. This culture is the result of human and natural geography. One of the most important aspects of culture and geography is the architecture and urbanization of homes and neighborhoods. The main principles of cities and the architecture of the metropolises of the Islamic world are the principles of introversion, concealment, and confidentiality. This principle has foundations and wide results in culture and geography, and many of its theorists have considered it the most important principle of architecture and urban planning of the past. This culture exists in the old context of all cities in Iran.The visual confidentiality of these features is the overwhelming debate about it. Nonetheless, in urban studies, the concepts of the realm of personal space have been investigated, rather than directly referring to confidentiality. Alongside these two concepts, which are primarily lenders to behavioral studies, there are other dual concepts such as confidentiality and the local community in urban studies. One of the reasons for this study is the lack of direct studies on privacy and its relationship with the formation of private urban spaces defined as alley that named dead-end.The city of Shiraz is one of the ancient cities of Iran, which has a unique historical texture.By studying the structure of Iranian cities after Islam, it can be seen that the formation of the dead-ends in urban neighborhoods is subject to special cultural conditions.The dead-ends created in this city, which is one of its structural features, is the result of the cultural interaction of residents in a small urban neighborhood.The purpose of this research is to investigate how dead-ends occur in urban neighborhoods. This research is descriptive-analytic and has selected the historical context of Shiraz as a pilot.
