How to plan and design new elements in the city context in a way that the new elements improve the\udentire neighborhood energy performance and its sustainability is the main question to be discussed in this\udpaper. In order to achieve this goal, I will investigate different urban morphological factors which have\udgreat influence on energy consumption of the city as a single entity and this investigation will be based on\udcomplexity analysis. In this analysis, the urban morphology is considered as the microscopic emergence\udof the city element’s transformation in time. Much research has been carried out regarding sustainable\udbuildings and the energy performance of single edifices; however there are few studies which have been\udcarried out with consideration of the cities as a single unit. Ultimately, the aim of this paper is to\udelucidate a novel method to design a new urban element, architectural project for instance, towards\udachieving a sustainable urban form.
