Abstract
Lately, a lot of studies focus on people behaviour and their relation with the built environment. This relation is studied in environment psychology science, which contains different theories as place theory. Place theory inquiries people presence or absence, and some attributes in such space to define how it raise to be a place for people. Hence, people are usually pedestrian in different times and situations. Moreover, the benefits of designing for pedestrian, and the calls of various urban theories to design for pedestrian and, so designing places is a critical and important issue. Accordingly, Space Syntax will be applied in this research as an efficient tool to be used for developing urban fabric of cities, and to design urban places for pedestrian.
