Today, the prevalence of the western culture in the society branches have led to the change in the dimensional identity of the buildings based on the aesthetic principles. It seems the ideas of this type of design without consideration for their interests, are trying to forcibly impose themselves on the reality of the society’s spiritual and physical needs (identity crisis). It has led to the alteration of the national and social values of the developing societies including Iran. the lack of attention and enthusiasm to construct physical spaces in the cities by the authorities, has led to two fundamental issues in the urban landscape: 1- Buildings are overwhelmingly similar to each other, without nativism, 2- the visual disturbance and lack of beauty of buildings in urban landscapes. Therefore, in order to prevent the decrease in such complications and improve the environment, the conduct of the current study is necessary to find a basic solution. In this regard, the current study is analytical-applied research and included among the field studies with the survey method. The data collection instruments are the observations and a questionnaire. The data have been analyzed in the framework of applied studies. First, in order to identify the criteria of beauty, the library-based studies have been conducted based on the views of the scholars of the field and the criteria’s subjectivism and objectivism. And with the extraction of the main components of building design, the questionnaire has been prepared. It was distributed among 171 students who passed by the buildings to evaluate the past and new components. The data extracted from these questionnaires were analyzed based on the usage of the buildings by the SPSS software. Finally, , it was revealed that the National Library was built based on a consistent but old structure and a modern architecture. On the other hand, the Kharazmi Library enjoyed better aesthetics.
