A Study of Effective Driving Forces on Housing Sustainability in Qazvin based on Futuristic Approach

Today, rapid growth of cities and increase of urban population indicate that urban instability has occurred in urban areas. In order to reduce instability in the cities, the paradigm of sustainability and foresight is considered more than ever. Therefore, housing foresight plays a very important role in urban planning and sustainable urban development as a basic infrastructure. In this study, Delphi method and Mick Mac software have been used to collect and analyze effective sustainability of housing in Qazvin based on a four dimensional approach and developed a comprehensive and applied research. As a result, paying attention to futurism in housing studies in Qazvin is an important issue. Accordingly, studies show that the drivers of "mixed housing development", "housing unit access to services", "social cohesion and interaction" and "identity and vitality" have the greatest impact on housing sustainability, and the drivers of " "Housing unit access to services", "social cohesion and interaction" and "sustainable architecture in harmony with local climate and materials" have the greatest impact on housing sustainability. Finally, the drivers of "social cohesion and interaction" and "housing unit access to services" have a high impact and influence on the sustainability of housing in Qazvin.
