Overview
Urban squares, as the beating heart of the city, played a significant role in connecting people with their environment and community. While displaying each city's symbols and landmarks, they brought people together for various reasons and generated collective memories and social identity.
Not long ago, the city of Bukan had an urban square beside the Jame Mosque and the Sardar Fortress, which encompassed the Hawzeh Gewre (the "Great Pool") and was a place for creating collective memories and social identity.
This space had long served as the physical setting for the residents' social interactions. Due to subsequent interventions, it has lost its role and has created confusion in the city.
The proposed design is an effort to revitalize the old square of the city and restore urban identity alongside the city's identity-defining landmarks.
