Abstract
Designing the environment and landscapes related to human life requires, on the one hand, taking into account the values and potential of the environment, and on the other hand, taking into account human needs. Such environmental design must be carried out persistently through interaction and balance with the environment. The purpose of this study was to propose strategies for applying an ecological ap- proach to architectural design in modern residential complexes The research method is descriptive, analytical and applied in nature. Carrying out this research using both field and documentary methods, data collection, analysis and integration were carried out. In order to identify Weaknesses and internal weaknesses, as well as external opportunities and threats, we used a SWOT analysis model, identifying the most preferred design strategies, as well as integrating the land- scapes of the external and internal environment using the QSPM matrix. The results showed that the most preferred strategy for designing open areas and landscapes, taking into account environmental vision and improving visual quality, is the approach of spatial and visual continuation with the internal atmosphere of residential complexes. At the present stage, the state of the environment is deteriorating in large cities around the world and for several decades architectural communities around the world have been paying special attention to the environmental aspects of design and construction in order to create comfortable and sustainable urban spaces that support a favorable socio-ecological microclimate.
