Abstract
Lack of attention to the "dynamic" concept of the landscape, the "holistic" approach to it, as well as the use of conventional methods in the study of urban development projects, has shaped the urban landscape that is unable to meet the demands of its inhabitants over time. Therefore, considering the ineffectiveness and divergence of the study method in the urban development plans of Iran with the diversity of today's city, it is necessary to adopt an appropriate attitude to today's urban conditions. Landscape Urbanism theory with a general approach to the concept of landscape and accepting the uncertainty of the evolving city, has raised a new field in global literature. The purpose of this paper is to use the Landscape Urbanism theory to change the method of studies in urban development projects of Iran, especially the "Comprehensive Quality Improvement Document for Urban Landscape." The methods of this qualitative research are Content Analysis, Comparative Study and Case Study. The results of this study show that the use of Landscape Urbanism theory in Iran requires understanding theoretical content, updating the urban landscape rules and improving the status of local institutions in the urban design and planning process.
