Comparative comparison of traditional baths, Kerman Bazaar order based on access and spatial relationship using space syntax technique

Baths from the past to the present are considered as one of the prominent works in Iranian architecture. Islam always pays attention to maintaining purity and cleanliness. In the past, these places were located inside the bazaars, for example, Kerman Bazaar is one of the most important and historical places in Kerman that has different uses, which one Those uses are bathrooms. Kerman Bazaar, with its linear form and the establishment of luxury baths such as Ganj Ali Khan, Ebrahim Khan and Vakil in its main axis, has caused the access and spatial relationship of these baths to be considered and studied in the study, so that differences Spatial perception and the relationship between spaces and access and vision in them should be determined. The research method is descriptive-analytical and with logical reasoning about the research results in a quantitative and qualitative manner. In this research, space syntax method and Depth map software have been used. According to the data extracted from Depth map software, it can be stated that Ibrahim Khan bath with a spatial depth of 7.17 has the highest physical access and a higher degree of spatial privacy than Vakil and Ganj Ali Khan baths, and also the communication index of 446 in Vakil Bath shows that there is a high spatial relationship between the different parts of the bath compared to the baths of Ibrahim Khan and Ganj Ali Khan. In general, it can be concluded that Ganj Ali Khan bath, due to the spatial complexity, the amount of communication and access between different parts of the bath, ie the connection between Bineh with the greenhouse and other spaces is lower than Vakil and Ebrahim Khan baths. As a result of the form, the spatial pattern of the bath affects the bath correlation index. Also, a noteworthy point in examining the level of visual visibility in the baths of the market order is that all three baths have the same amount of visual visibility in them, so that the amount of isost 359 with variable decimals dominates the three baths under study.
