Abstract
The primary function of housing is to respond to human lifestyles, and currently, many residences are designed with less consideration for the preferences and needs of their inhabitants. In this research, aimed at examining the impact of individuals' lifestyles on the physical aspects of housing and addressing the question, “What are the contemporary spaces based on today’s lifestyle?”, a questionnaire was developed based on the Likert scale. The statistical population consists of 298 residents of District 5 of Tabriz, selected randomly. In the data analysis phase, the statistical software of SPSS was used, along with a combination of a one-sample t-test to assess the influence of each component, the Friedman test for component comparison, and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test to examine the normality of score distribution. According to the analyses conducted, the highest correlation coefficients between contemporary lifestyles and housing are as follows: environmental dimension with a coefficient of 3.91, physical dimension 3.84, socio-cultural dimension 3.76, individual dimension 3.62, and economic dimension 3.55. Based on the results, the most important sub-components of the environmental, physical, socio-cultural, individual, and economic dimensions are related to environmental health, construction patterns, security, goals, and income levels, respectively. The proposed contemporary spaces in this research include a central water purification system, a central laundry, individual unit laundry facilities, waste chutes, mechanical car washes, a filter for the restroom entrance, a designed guard station for monitoring entries and exits, ensuring visibility to children's play areas, creating visual and physical connections between public and semi-public courtyards, designing health pathways, a gymnasium, and a swimming pool.
