A review of the philosophical thoughts on formation of social Interactions in architectural spaces design

Human is a social being created and forced to interact with other people to meet his physical and psychological needs. In the past, social interactions of people occurred among public spaces. But in the contemporary era, the lack of spaces where interactions take place is severely felt. Ignoring the fundamental need of human, that is, interacting with others, will cause irreparable damages for individuals and society. Researchers and thinkers have named the concept of social interactions as the enhancer of reciprocal relations of humans. On the other hand, some researchers consider the goal of humans from communicating with each other as internalizing norms and solidarity. The present article seeks to achieve qualitative criteria, criteria that help to enhance social interactions in architectural spaces. By summarizing theoretical studies and examining the opinions of thinkers and designers with the approach of enhancing social interactions and influential and index architectural space criteria, qualitative criteria were selected and evaluated to guide other researchers and designers in enhancing social interactions in architectural space design.
