Professional Work
Category: Mixed-use | Cultural and Turistic
Year: 2021
Location: Chabahar, Iran
Role: Designer, Graphic Designer, Architectural Visualization
Softwares: Sketch Up, 3Ds Max, Corona render, Photoshop
Team: Babak Behnood, Amin Keykha
In this project, we focused on preserving the sacred tree while enhancing local tourism infrastructure through hyper-realistic simulations. Our approach combined traditional design elements with modern techniques to create an immersive experience. One of our key concepts was integrating natural shading systems by optimizing airflow and sunlight, essential for the hot and humid climate of Chabahar. These visualizations not only helped bring our ideas to life but also allowed us to explore the use of native materials and shading techniques, ensuring both functionality and aesthetic harmony with the surrounding environment.

Role: Architectural Visualization
Softwares: 3Ds Max, Corona render, Photoshop
Design: Navid Ahmadi
My goal was to create hyperrealistic visualizations that truly captured the harmony between modern architecture and the surrounding desert environment. By carefully simulating natural lighting and paying close attention to how shadows interact with the structure, I aimed to show how the design blends seamlessly with its surroundings while offering a serene and welcoming space for both residential and recreational use. My focus was on accurately portraying the architectural details and how they merge with the landscape, ensuring that the vision of modern living in a desert setting was fully realized.

Team: Babak Behnood, Amin Keykha
My approach as a CG artist was to create hyperrealistic visualizations that highlight the interplay between architecture and the unique environment of the Chabahar-Beris road. We aimed to bring to life the concept of “the praise of shade” and the importance of empty space, which are core design principles in this project. Through careful simulations, we illustrated how the fragmented volumes of the structure encourage airflow and maximize the use of natural shade, essential for the hot and humid climate. The design reflects local vernacular elements, such as the light, woven roof for maximum shading, and the open courtyards that embrace the desert’s natural beauty. The result was a balanced, immersive experience, blending modern architectural forms with the region’s environment while respecting its cultural and ecological context.
