Locating and architectural design, as a suitable platform to provide the ground for achieving the goals and purposes of passive defense, is of great importance and causes the success of decision-making at different strategic levels. Office spaces are one of the uses that are considered by planners and designers for urban services. The current research is among applied research and descriptive-analytical research methods and it aims to locate and design office sites in Isfahan City. Documentary methods and questionnaires were also used to collect information. For this purpose, 18 indicators for the location of urban administrative uses in the form of four general criteria (demographic, functional, physical, and structural), selected and using the network analysis process model (ANP), the importance coefficient of criteria and sub-criteria are determined. The coefficients obtained in the environment of the geographic information system (GIS) were influenced by the information layers. By overlapping them, areas prone to the construction of office uses have been identified. Then, each of the eighteen uses was weighted using the Delphi method and experts' questionnaire. Finally, using the capabilities of the geographic information system (Euclidean Distance and Weighted Overlay), the spatial distribution of each service use was analyzed. The results of the research show that 3% of the entire city of Isfahan has very low desirability, 15.9% is low desirability, 43.4% is moderate desirability, 28.74% is high desirability and 8.96% is very high desirability. From the south to the north of the city, the level of desirability decreases.
