摘要：The built environment witnessed rapid transformation after the industrial revolution. This transformation came along with some negativities, which gave rise to the concept of sustainability in urban form. In this regard, the current study aimed to assess and validate the reciprocal relationship between urban morphology and sustainable urban form. This study proposes a conceptual model which integrates and presents the holistic correlation between sustainable urban form and urban morphology, by using qualitative grounded theory as the research methodology. The model was developed by introducing analytical tools to evaluate sustainability, along with integrating typo-morphology and the concept of scale hierarchy. The findings of this study reveal that every single component of sustainable urban form interacts significantly with the typo-morphology approach. Consequently, the outcomes help urban planners to get more informed decisions about the geometric analysis of urban morphology from a sustainability point of view.
