Architectural spaces, if not optimally designed, can harm the physical and mental well-being of individuals, reduce spatial tolerance, and decrease productivity, especially in workspaces. The situation is even more critical in case studies like industrial cleanrooms, which have significant design constraints. The research problem at hand examines the physical characteristics of architectural space and evaluates the manner and extent of the impact of the architectural space's physical form on resilience. The main objective is to develop solutions for designing more flexible and resilient spaces, particularly for specialized workspaces such as cleanrooms. Our hypotheses are based on the premise that the qualitative components of space determine the level of employee resilience within the architectural space. By determining the impact of each of these components on employee resilience, architectural spaces can be designed more effectively. To validate this research hypothesis, we initially surveyed cleanroom employees using a structured questionnaire to assess the reality of the problem. Subsequently, through a literature review in the two areas of resilience and spatial quality, we extracted the components involved in ensuring resilience, as well as the determinants of resilience. We then proceeded to assess the impact of each of the components and sub-components of spatial quality on the resilience of the architectural space, utilizing both Delphi and focus group methods to achieve this goal. Considering that resilience has various biological, social, cultural, and psychological aspects, but given that, apart from the biological aspect which is considered an individual matter, the other three aspects of resilience are directly related to psychology, we included a group of psychologists with experience in the architecture of workspaces and the resulting complications for employees as part of our expert panel for the focus group and Delphi methods. Furthermore, considering the involvement of management experts in industry with issues related to workspace and productivity, we used a second group of experts from the field of management, with various specializations, and the main group consisted of architecture experts with different orientations. It is worth mentioning that, due to the limited number of specialists in the three fields involved and knowledgeable regarding the relationship between architectural space and resilience, we limited ourselves to four individuals in each specialized area. The results indicate that the resilience of architectural space reflects differences in the behavior of the diagrams related to the three main axes. Assuming equal importance of the axes, the components can be categorized into three levels: The primary level includes daylight, daylight dynamics, and the amount of private space, which have the highest impact coefficient in all three axes. The secondary level includes views and landscape, the amount of environmental noise, and ease of interaction, which have an acceptable impact. The tertiary level includes acoustic quality, sound reflection quality, color, dedicated physical space, the geometry of private space, and surface materials, which have a lesser impact. Furthermore, the components of visual privacy, auditory privacy, music, and surface texture have a very negligible impact, and even surface texture and music have negative scores in terms of comfort; therefore, they can be disregarded.
