Geographical spaces need to avoid environmental deterioration and simultaneously meet economic and social demands. Therefore, the integration of different dimensions of development is necessary in order to economic growth, understanding environmental conditions and social justice and equality. "How can the conflicting dimensions of sustainable development be reconciled?" is one of the issues that can be raised in the implementation of sustainable development. The present study takes an effective step in applying the concept of "spatial efficiency"(That concept is evolving). The spatial efficiency approach to development sustainability combines socio-economic values and environmental considerations in changes leading to development. Development sustainability of the Provinces of Iran in the form of space efficiency approach have been compared comparatively by covering multiple components of spatial enjoyment (economic, social and environmental) for each unit of pressing components (pressures on the living environment and human habitats). According to the overall results, the average efficiency of the provinces is 0.961, and in the meantime, Isfahan province, with a numerical value of 0.759, has the most unsuitable situation in efficiency. Most of the border and side provinces are efficient in terms of sustainable development, and it is the central provinces that need to revise the development indicators. The present article suggests that development policies need to be reconsidered.
