The purpose of this research is studying of common structure patterns in forming of Iranian gardens.Discussions: Iranian garden can be introduced in three scales in terms of its diversity and functional range. In architecture scale, urban scale and in a mid-scale between these two in which garden is just considered a part of nature. Garden in each of these three scales has been manifested by different forms and with various features and this diversity of spread is in harmony and in accordance with intended functions. Different systems have been considered for Iranian garden and four primary systems, i.e. water, geometry, planting and buildings, in addition to secondary systems, i.e. view, shadow and sounds which are connected to primary systems, are implied. Coordinating systems and theories determine form and space function and technic in architecture, and also present aesthetic causes for their dimensions. These coordination consist of: proportion 1:1, Root Square 2, Root Square 3.
