Effect of Modernization of traditional water supply infrastructure on the physical component of houses(comparative comparison: traditional and contemporary houses in the cities of the central and southern regions of Fars province)

The effects of water on the fundamental elements of the city as an independent element in nature is a subject that has been debated by experts. The research method is the comparative causal correlation with deductive reasoning. Traditional and contemporary houses in two central and southern regions of Fars province have been designated as study samples. The information has been attained via library studies, field observations, scattered documents, and in-depth interviews with residents and knowledgeable and expert people. The introduction and application of new knowledge and technical facilities related to water in the cities have regularly changed the shape of the physical elements of the houses. The quantitative outlook and the way of using water in the design of the new house have caused the forgetting of the transcendent aesthetic values and the psychological and climatic effects of water and the decline of the spatial quality of the houses.The effects of water on the fundamental elements of the city as an independent element in nature is a subject that has been debated by experts.
