Urban public spaces provide a fundamental setting for social interaction, collective experience, and intergenerational connections, playing a crucial role in the reproduction of family life and the strengthening of social relations. These spaces are not merely arenas for physical presence, but also sites where values, identities, and cultural structures are formed and negotiated. In this context, the concept of family-oriented public space as an approach linking home and city—has not yet been clearly articulated within Iran’s academic literature or urban policy frameworks, and has often been addressed only indirectly through notions such as “safe urban spaces” or “participatory public spaces.” This study seeks to redefine this concept and to elucidate its cultural, institutional, and spatial dimensions within the socio-urban context of Tehran. To this end, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 30 experts and key stakeholders in the fields of family studies, urban sociology, urban planning, architecture, and urban governance. The findings indicate that Tehran’s public spaces are currently shaped more by physical, traffic-oriented, and functional logics than by human-centered or family-based considerations. This condition has contributed to a weakening of the sense of belonging, reduced opportunities for intergenerational interaction, and a growing disconnection between everyday life and family-centered social practices. Experts emphasized the need to conceptualize public spaces as arenas for social interaction, psychological security, collective vitality, and the reinforcement of family identity. Accordingly, this study proposes a conceptual framework that integrates cultural–social, spatial–design, and institutional–policy dimensions in order to reimagine family-oriented public spaces. This framework offers a theoretical and practical foundation for advancing urban policies and planning strategies aimed at enhancing family well-being and redefining the relationship between family and city in contemporary Iran.
