The concept is intended to enhance the market by creating sub-categories and engaging with existing textures. At this point the only connection between the southern entrance gate and Narin Castle is worth considering. Because adding service arms can help revitalize this range.

Considering the importance of breathing new life to the Nain market and the presence of Narin Castle and the Jamaat Mosque in the western half as well as vehicle access, the eastern half is practically threatened with destruction and oblivion, so considering attractive uses, the people in the eastern districts prevented this.

The main purpose of this concept is to revive the old market of Nain by connecting neighborhoods to it. Old district Hub centers are still active as Naien's old Neighborhood communal centers, and if connected to the market by existing communication channels, they can help revitalize the Naien Old Market with related applications.

Considering the market and its scope as an indicator element of the old texture can play a key role. By considering this range through the three layers of the market, commercial and service and residential use as the third layer can bring life back to the neighborhood. Therefore, these two layers act as a chain and guarantee the presence.

The Story Of A Bazaar..........................................................................................................................................

The building is divided into four main sections incuding a complex for selling copper products, a colonade named "Raste" in Iran with modular stores, a central place called "Timche" which provides clear access to sections and some repairing rooms, this complex is built in the neighborhood of the Naein old bazaar.

The Intersection [Timche]

The corridor is an old-fashioned aisle that has similar, modular shops, and usually all shops sell a specific items. This space is located next to the copper repair shop where they sell copper goods and access the "Timche" (the main lobby for entire building) from one side and then enter the Naein Bazaar.

The yard is surrounded by places where repairs are made on copper goods such as whitening copper. It also has access to the shopping corridor, the intersection and the main courtyard.

This intersection has the task of connecting the old bazaar to the shopping aisle as well as to the main yard and surrounding shops. This space includes vertical access to the upper floor and the tea house.

On either side of the entrance the shops have a concrete platform built to allow people to sit. This module is repeated in almost all shops. Modular construction is a feature of Iran's ancient architecture.

The foundation of building is stripped foundation and the walls are made of concrete blocks and the bricks are attached to the concrete by a metal grid. The walls are insulated inside and out.

The main courtyard of the complex has two main porches, like the traditional architecture of Iran. Due to the hot weather of this city the colonade has a canopy across the passage area and shops have retreated to take advantage of the shade created.

Attachment of bricks to the concrete walls with dry mortar and through a metal grid allows the material to be reused. This saves materials. This method improves the accuracy and speed of execution.

The Story Of A Myth ................................................................................................................................................................................................

The process of the section design

The Shahnameh is a book full of great stories and characters, each with its own distinctive features, flexible and wondrous throughout the story, and is sometimes a manifestation of the vast and varied human emotions that flow through the story. Reader makes these changes in his emotions so that one can judge by reading each story, and at the end of the story, his judgment may fail, eventually leaving the man with the different senses in which he is formed and thinking about it. He picks up and somehow gets suspended. Man is a mysterious creature and dips into the hidden angles of the story to decode, human beings have hope in the study of the story, a human being who strains against nature and believes in the laws of nature and balances in a sense and puts himself in line with it. Due to his weakness he feels a sense of suspense between his material and spiritual worlds, his outer and inner worlds.

1.We

first separated memorial building's sections from its administrative and service areas.

2.

At this point, we created space for the optional circulation of our cubes and made possible the communication between them through the communication spaces (stairs and ramps).

3.

We created an empty space for rest and use of the existing landscape.

4.

By rotating the spaces, in addition to creating better coordination with the site and creating better form, we created a better perspective.

The Story Of A Family........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

The house, located in "Amanieh" district of the city of Tehran, is designed for a family including a son, a daughter and a divorced couple. The man and the woman wanted to live with their children while they didn’t want to live together. So this problem was the main concept of the house. This house is comprised of 3 parts while it has some common spaces . The mother is an architect and works at home, so she needed an atelier . The atelier was interwoven to the house but did not affect its functions, it even has a separate entrance and family members have private spaces.

In the next layer is there the mother's workplace overlooking the courtyard.

This place has separate entrances and does not disturb the rest of the house.

A higher layer is the maternal living space in relation to children's living space. This section is designed to allow children to live with their mother. Then, there is the father's living space where the children live with their father in addition to the mother.

Kah’riz The Underground Watermill eVolo 2019 Date: Jan 25th - Feb 8th, 2019 Team Members: Amir Ebrahimian, Hossein Amery Location: Sistan, Iran Position: Designer, Graphic designer, Diagram producer Kah’riz was a 2-week competition group effort focused on designing a sustainable watermill tower based on an ancient underground water distribution channel system for the purpose of revitalizing the agriculture of a hot and arid area in the country of Iran "Sistan and Baloochestan".

The Need to Stop The Draught...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Living in harmony with nature-high levels of waterpeople are mostly farmers.

Subsiding the level of water-people lost their jobsshortage of food and water.

People have lost their houses and now they are living in camps.

We tried to bring back life to the people by getting them closer to water level.

Now they can have their own lands and houses back.

Main Problem

Concept

Drought is arguably the biggest single threat from climate change. Its impacts are global. As in Sistan and Baluchestan province in Iran severe drought will soon force more than half a million people to migrate to other parts of the country.

While Most of the people in the province are farmers, the decrease in water level due to severe drought nearly made it impossible to sustain water resources for agriculture causing the destruction of their livelihood and mass migration to other parts.

This situation demands an immediate sustainable solution which needs to be comprehensive due to vastness of Iran and its semi-arid climate and yet native because of Sistan’s dry, dusty and hot weather.

The KAH’RIZ project seeks to address these issues as it tries to implement the idea of resuscitation and development of an ancient water distribution. The tower stretches down enough to reach the level of water tables beneath the ground which leads to easy access to fresh water for multiple use such as irrigation, drinking, energy, recreation and provides enough farming ground for local people and villagers in shape of horizontal and vertical panels.

Kah’riz in Persian or Qanat in Arabic is an ancient underground water distribution channel system that leads water from its source as a spring, lake or stream up in mountains from higher grounds to the human settlements which supplies irrigation and drink water. While this system of chained tunnels provides water, the element of height helps to utilize water pressure to generate electricity and other forms of energy.

Mechanism............................................................................................................................

The water floating in the main tunnel is actually used as fuel for the water mill in the center of the tower that let the stories to rotate and change their position in accordance to sunlight. On the other hand, this central structure and its water turbine pump up the water from lower levels all the way to the upper stories. This system of circulation lets the fresh water to be sprayed on the crops which prevents from water waste and allows the water to be recycled through the system.

Encoded Stereotomy Workshop Superviser: Dr. Ali Andaji Garmaroodi, Email: aliandaji@yahoo.com Tuters: Farzaneh Eskandari, Pouria Baniadam Assisstants: Reza Fattahi, Sepehr Farzaneh Held By: Center of Excellence in Architectural Technology (CEAT) Location: University Of Tehran - Faculty Of Fine Arts Position: Participent / Designer (Designing, Modeling, Graphic Designing, Documentation)

Encoded Stereotomy was a 4-week workshop focused on designing free form funicular shell structures based on Thrust Network Analysis (TNA) and digitally generating the tessellated vault with digital fabrication methods by using 5 axis CNC hot wire cutting machine.

01.Group Alternatives The workshop was attended by 38 students and graduates from various universities, participants were divided into groups of 6 to 8 and were asked to first draw their ideas for a compression only vault individually, and then in consultation with team members, an idea was selected and developed in each group. After two working days, all the designs were reviewed by the directors, and finally, after examining the strengths and weaknesses of each, one of the designs was selected for construction on a one-to-one scale.

One of the ideas put forward by the participants consisted of arches that had crossed each other at different heights. This idea was chosen as the final design for construction due to the innovative form of the arch compared to other ideas put forward by the participants and also to similar projects made in the field of compression-only structures.

Another advantage of this form over other ideas was the low surface of the material intended to cover a wide span. The complexity of the form was also visually appealing to the participants.

The main challenge in developing the selective idea was to maintain the horizontal and vertical proportions of the vault spans. For this reason, many alternatives were modeled to obtain the desired form in Rhino Vault software.

Mesh Network

02.Concept Development

04. CAD Process .............................................................................................................................................

After adjusting the proportions of the selected form, the relevant analyzes for generating a vertical vault were performed with high accuracy in Rhino Vault. Next, the mesh curvature was evaluated to make the hot wire CNC foam cutter capable of cutting the voussoirs. The obtained mesh by Rhino Vault was not completely planar. Therefore, in the first step, the deviation of the mesh panels from the planar state was reduced to the minimum without causing any tangible deformation in the vault form; and after that the ruled surfaces which are perpendicular to the original rhino vault mesh were split by two parallel planes, and the six obtained faces were prepared for cutting.

Generation of The Voussoirs In order to prevent sliding failure and guarantee structural stability, the main load bearing faces of neighboring voussoirs need to be perpendicular to the force flow. Therefore, the interface surfaces should be normal to the thrust surface at any point.

04. CAM Process ................................................................................................................

Polystyrene sheets by use of Rhino-Nest

At this point, all the modeled voussoirs were ready to be cut, so for cutting the parts by hot wire CNC foam cutter, the G-codes for the arranged voussoirs were generated by “Solid Works” and all the pieces were cut in about five days.

In order to avoid loss of materials and to increase the cutting speed, it was attempted to arrange the designed vault voussoirs in 10 * 100 * 100 cm3 polystyrene sheets by use of Rhino-Nest.

The cutting tool of the machine is moved according to the G-code instructions through a toolpath, cutting away material to leave only the finished work piece.

G-code is a language in which people tell computerized machine tools how to make something. The «HOW» is defined by G-code instructions provided to a machine controller (industrial computer) that tells the motors where to move, how fast to move, and what path to follow.

The G-codes of this project were generated with 3D modeling software called “Solid Works” and the machine process was simulated in “Solid Cam”.

05. Construction....................................................................................................................................................................

After finishing the cutting process, the students began to assemble the pieces using polyurethane foam, the process of assembling the vault was completed within a week, after which the cement coating was applied to the final vault. The efforts made to assemble the pieces are available via the link below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqODW49RGVs
