Problem statement:

 Iran has myriad valuable rural fabrics. Today, discussing the “value” of rural fabrics is of great importance. Their diversity and dispersion based on biodiversity, natural location, and cultural characteristics have prompted entities to make efforts to identify their values with the help of environmental teachings. Given the limited funding and necessity to create equal opportunities to improve villages, the custodians are tasked with formulating the appropriate criteria and indicators to determine the values and evaluate the samples based on these to arrive at adequate samples that can be used as universal models for similar locations. The present research asks the question of how to define “value”, find suitable interpretations of it in a range of valuable rural fabrics, and present a mechanism to assess these to pave the way for both conservation and development.

The first aim of the research is to classify values for the rural fabric. In the next stage, it will review the criteria and indicators that impact their selection and present a new understanding of the concept of value in conservation, development, and restoration. Finally, it discusses the mechanism for measuring samples based on these.

The library research method was used for the comparative analysis of various values introduced in the relevant literature on the topic, then values were defined, described, classified, and analyzed by reasoning.

The first step in setting up a mechanism to measure values was to identify the valuable samples by pinpointing the inherent values of every single rural fabric for conservation. The next step was to prioritize the attributed values and restoration goals to define a development plan.

Dating back to several thousand years ago, the Iranian garden is the outcome of the culture and thought of Iranians and has definite links with the ritual and religious beliefs of the country both before and after the emergence of Islam. Iranian garden is composed of almost static artificial and natural elements including fruitful and decorative plants, palace, stream, pool, fountain, terraces and encircling wall and street. The combination of these elements in space is in a way that a created main axis called ‘the garden street’ leads to the palace and shapes a framed landscape for the visitor when the stream flows through that and by linear implantation of trees on both sides. This way, the other mentioned elements have shaped the Iranian gardens of different regions of Iran covering a wider area than the current borders of the country, with more or less the same system. The subject of debate in this research is the investigation of the flimsy evidence that the constituent elements of Iranian garden in various temporal, geographical, cultural and ritual contexts, do not experience the equal effects and some of which remain rather fixed in any circumstances and some, like water, are so unstable that are specific to each garden on which the aesthetics of Iranian garden is based. This hypothesis has been evaluated in the framework of John Dewey’s valuation theory.

Some historical monuments are considered the heritage of universal value due to their exceptional features. The industrial heritage as part of world heritage is a new phenomenon and the result of the world's industrialization. They have entered the global culture due to having hidden material and spiritual values. Global measures are required to preserve these valuable heritages. Note that industrial architectural heritage is only a part of the overall concept of industrial heritage. Knowing the values and position in the regional architectural identity is a prerequisite to preserve. Dealing with the industrial buildings and monuments, as remnants of the industrial era, is a new concept introduced in developing countries. In Iran, it is essential to research in this field due to the historical background of industry entry to Iran and unique industrial building. This has something to do with the fact that Iranian architectural-industrial heritage, as part of a forgotten heritage, is in danger of destruction and if igonored, We will certainly lose these valuable remnants. Therefore, identifying and evaluating the hidden features and values of industrial heritage can be the first step to preserve. Due to the necessity of knowing the status quo of industrial-architectural heritage in the world, this article aimed to study and analyze the industrial heritage inscribed on the List of World. In this regard, the concepts on the World Heritage criteria, taken into account in registering monuments, were analyzed. The results are used for (more familiarity and a more tangible understanding of the capabilities and features of generalizability of World Heritage criteria in the field of industrial architectural heritage.

The accurate and conscious performance, as desired by the music community, has always been one of the major concerns of the players engaged in the scientific and academic acquisition of this field. To achieve this, the assessment and valuation of music performances by the professors and professionals can be noted as the most important academic means in order to distinguish between accurate and inaccurate performance in line with providing patterns and training the players. However, is it possible to assess music in a quantitative manner followed by marking its performance? If positive, based on which criteria and standard? Composing music and translating it into text, or in general, scores and revising and performing it depend on factors which are less adaptable to the current scientific-academic approaches of the date. In addition to the impact by the music that has constants and variables --just like a living phenomenon-- we have the player, the composer and the audience on the other hand, each with their intellectual and physical complications that can affect the valuation of music performance at different levels.

There is a broad consensus on bringing nature back to cities. Environmental issues and their rising challenges in the world have encouraged theorists and practitioners to adopt a broader perspective to “City in Nature”1 and consider it as an entity. In this respect, three general objectives are pursued: a) the protection of resources that nature provides human with; b) responding to aesthetic ideals of citizens; and c) accreditation of urban spaces. The natural resources of Tehran have been the issue of much debate and bringing nature back to the cities are of great importance. To this purpose, the urban management has taken some measurements. Though the approaches for the interventions impact theaestheticizationof urban areas, our knowledge about the issue is scanty. This paper is an attempt to address this gap and contribute to our knowledge of nature-based aestheticization.
