This thesis explores the history of the public baths on the architecture of Iran and their significance for urban heritage. The dissertation first contextualizes the concept of the hammam within the Persian tradition, particularly as an interactive cultural forum. Subsequently, we propose a set of ideas, possibly standards,to meet the contemporary needs of the public and indicate ways in which they can benefit from - and allow for – the continuity and construction of public baths in the future. The design proposal involves the restoration and revitalization of the Qibla Hammam (also known as the Khanum Hammam) In Tehran, a public bath from the Safavid dynasty (1501–1736).
