Urban landscapes, the first and most external covering, in addition to introducing the identity and personality of cities, consciously or unconsciously affects human beings and the perception resulting from these consequences are the cause of human behavior in the environment. In the present study, the theoretical framework is designed based on the general theories proposed in the field of perception phenomenology, particularly in the field of architecture and urbanism. The study area (three middle cities of northwestern Iran) includes Mahabad, Buchan and Saqez, which in general have a uniform consistency of ethnic, cultural, religious and customs commonalities. The sample study includes 154 participants, including 94 men and 60 women are selected by purposive and non-probabilistic sampling. Moreover, the research method is a combination of phenomenological and grounded theory. The grounded theory method is used in the data coding and category extraction stage and the interpretive phenomenology method is used in the data interpretation section. The results of the study identify the components affecting the perceptual experiences of urban landscapes, and finally, a diagram of the perceptual stages of urban landscapes is presented, which can be considered as a paradigm in the design of urban landscapes. Research aims: 1- Developing a phenomenological model for the perception of urban views 2- Proposing solutions for designing urban facades to achieve more humane spaces Research questions: 1- What are the mental and objective components of urban views that affect the perception of the audience? 2- According to the phenomenological theories of perception, urban patterns are perceived based on what pattern or model in the mind of the audience?
