Different factors affect the sociability of the environment, such as social, financial and objective factors.The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of spatial organization on increasing the number of open spaces sociability of residential complexes.In this regard, open spaces between residential complexes were selected as research beds and based on those, four open spaces patterns including linear patterns, complex pattern, mixed and single element central pattern in four residential complexes were selected as case examples . The tools of analysis in this research are the theory of space syntax. In this case, logical analyzes were performed by using mathematical relations and software analyzes derived from “Depthmap” software.In this research, the effective elements in increasing the sociability were studied, then the indices of each component were introduced and finally will be analyzed by means of proper tools. In order to achieve the purpose of this research, the theoretical framework of the research choose and case samples were analyzed based on that. The results showed that spatial organization plays a significant role on increasing or decreasing the sociability of open spaces in residential complexes. Analyzes using this software showed that, unfortunately, designed spaces in open areas of residential complexes were not placed properly and should be reconsidered in their design process. Furthermore, creating a semi-public-semi-private space in an integrated complex, can lead to a more global sociability of the space. In the results of this research, the effect of the arrangement of the blocks is completely obvious. In addition, space depth rate, proper arrangement of different functions in open outdoor and being useful for all age groups are considered as effective factors in increasing the sociability in open spaces of residential complexes.
