In recent decades, studies on residential environments and the crisis in architectural and urban planning structures in Iran have become a topic of discussion among experts. Previous studies show that, on one hand, aesthetic values are one of the influential factors in the quality of residential environments, and on the other hand, reviewing the existing research and related sources highlights the lack of clear and defined components and criteria in explaining bio-aesthetics. The aim of the present research is to identify the components and criteria of bio-aesthetics in residential environments. This objective is achievable by extracting the aforementioned criteria from the existing research in the field of architectural aesthetics. In this regard, the type of research is applied, and the methodological approach is qualitative. Additionally, the strategy adopted is the meta-synthesis method developed by Sandelowski and Barroso. The data collection tool consists of the previous research studies. In this context, from the 623 articles identified during the systematic literature review of the past four decades in electronic databases, 77 selected articles and books met the selection criteria. Furthermore, to determine the content validity of the research, the internal validity of the components and criteria was assessed using the Lawshe Content Validity Ratio (CVR) and a survey of 15 experts. The results, after identification, coding, and categorization, have been presented in the form of a conceptual model of bio-aesthetics. The findings indicate that the bio-aesthetic component can be analyzed based on four aspects: perceptual aesthetics, cognitive aesthetics, social aesthetics, and biological (bio) aesthetics, with thirteen criteria and forty-eight sub-criteria identified and analyzed.
