2010 Bachelor of Architecture (At BIHE university)

Studying at the BIHE Baha’i Uni versity as a religious minority had its advantages and limitations. Studying at a time when access to the most fundamental archi tectural tools was difficult. We did not have the experience of having an architectural studio and work ing with classmates, using up-todate systems and many of the sim ple facilities that are now among the essential items to study at any university in any country.

1991 born- originally from Iran Mash had, and raised in various cities in Iran including Arak, Kerman shah, Isfahan and Tehran

2016

Finish the bachelor degree in ar chitecture: The end of my college semester was when I entered the job market with reasonable confi dence. The one and two years of internship that I had spent before the end of my studies in differ ent offices had introduced me to some of the positive and negative aspects of architecture and gave me a more immeasurable view.

2019 Got married

One of the great things that have happened in my life over the last six years is my marriage to some one who was more than a hus band, a friend and a companion. Despite the many challenges that may arise for any new family, I am grateful for this important event in my life every day. We began our journey together while I was of fered an excellent opportunity to work in Dubai as an architect. this date was one of my greatest.

2019 Came to Dubai

It was at my marriage I had a job best middle El Mashtooly, employed Dubai. Since influential international

Dubai

the very beginning of marriage (the first week) that job offer from one of the middle east architects, Islam Mashtooly, to get permanently in their office based in Since then, the start of my journey to work as an international architect has begun.

2020 Corona outbreak!

Corona outbreak as a global challenge has affected the lives of all of us. The story began when I was in Iran applying for Her riot Watt university while I was on my one week of leave. Corona happened, and we got stuck in Iran for seven months and could not return to Dubai.

Among the adverse events of Corona in my life, I can name many positive effects as well. The experience of working as an architect remotely. Before the Covid-19 outbreak, working in the field of architec ture was almost impossible or not widely accepted. The experience of time, deliv ering work on time even though there was no supervisor, and communicating with teammates and the design director were all positive things that happened after co rona in my life

2021 Finish the master degree in interior design

Finishing my studies while working full time a year after my arrival to Dubai, was another resettling my life and overcoming a challenge. I learned how to balance my life and work, even though it was hard and maybe not completed, yet the whole experience taught me to make a clear picture of how opportunities will benefit my path to success.

2020 Award wining, Joining Verform Design studio

Won international awards: Winner 2020 architecture master prize (commercial buildings), Winner 2020 IDA design award (commercial buildings), shortlisted for: Amongst the other positive effects of co rona on my life, I can name the various awards I won for a project that me and one of my friends design during the covid-19 outbreak. This opportunity had brought us together to stay positive and use the best of our time on our career.

It was the time when I joined the Verform Design Studio a year after its establish ment. Mouaz’s architectural design per spective and way of thinking have influ enced my recent designs a lot. Designing for the people, serving the people, and creating usable spaces in accordance with human life to improve their life ex periences were all at the forefront of my designs.

I was going mad! Many things was hap pening in my life ! :D

WHAT IS RVAD ?

RVAD Architecture Studio is co-founded in Tehran, Iran in 2020 by two young Iranian architects, Ms. Hannaneh Misaghi and Mr. Hasan Dehghanpour. Rvad in Persian means moving forward intensely and slowly. As it comes from its very young and talented curators, this studio aims to act as a forum for both ideas and design, which is growing and moving forward profoundly and consistently.

The studio’s design ideals are focused on extending the relationship between architecture and humanity with consideration of history and culture so as to produce designs appropriate for each site and in service of both the society and its citizens. ARVAD Studio aims to present architectural solutions focused on the needs of future gen erations and their potential in view of each project’s benefit to pres ent a new perspective on social relationships.

I believ, designing for users begins with an in-depth study of region al history, culture, and lifestyle. From Hannah’s point of view, site inspection and proximity and neighborhood, paying attention to the requirements of the client/ user are the priorities of a good design.

User-based experience design is the main idea of all of her design line thoughts. She believes that with practice and concentration, the gap between academia and professional experience can be re duced. What may not be of much interest to designers and archi tects right now is the use of academic research methods to achieve accurate and reliable results, which should be a must for all design ers. By combining these capabilities and finally designing to fit the context and needs of users, a successful design can be achieved

12 . Hananeh Misaghi Portfolio 2022

“In design discussion, what I am always looking for is to find everyday human obstacles in different areas, study indigenously, and answer the problem in order to improve the living conditions of users.” Hannaneh Misaghi

THE VISION

Hanna believes architecture is a space for people , for users, and for those in need. She believes architecture will always serve more than simply a functional purpose. In her designs, she seeks to find a practical architectural solution to the challenges of everyday life with respect to lifestyle, communication, culture, religion , and geographical situation which are among the most critical principles that should be considered in her point of view in a design.

Contemporary architecture, In her view, is a practice that merges with the daily inadequacies of humans as users. What the form appends to the architecture does not matter much compared to the practicality and functionality of the building or space designed by the architect. She seeks to diagrammatic approach to architectural forms rather than solely follow functions in her designs!

THE ARCHITECTURE DIALOGUE

14 . Hananeh Misaghi Portfolio 2022

THE MISSION , FUTURE PERSPECTIVE

As an Iranian, Hanna has a strong understanding and knowledge of the complexities of the history and culture that surrounds her Persian and Arab Nations and that have contributed to her current standing. From her point of view, what will be predicted as the future of architecture is concluded as four main principles as follows:

• Putting the community first

• Study and understanding of human interaction, culture, and the life: Environments are able to predictably affect moods. By sincere understanding and studying the nature of human interaction, lifestyle and, culture, designs will be able to instantly revitalize communities and change perceptions.

• Recognizing current issues and interpreting challenges through architecture as an activity that becomes a means of transformation: Architects must become leaders and collaborators within problem-solving teams focusing on the problems of people and of society as a whole.

• Technology and stainability: As much as analyzing and developing context in design ing a reliable architecture is valuable, using innovative technology and materials can bring a new approach to architecture. Keeping up with the latest technology is one of the requirements of an architect for human-based design.

GLOBAL AND REGIONAL RECOGNITION

Hanna has won multiple awards, including Architizer (2021 Jury Winner, Commercial Un built category), IDA Design award ( 2020 2nd place, Mixed-use Architecture), Architecture Master Prize awards ( 2020 winner of Mixed-use Architecture), and her interest and con tribution have led the companies she collaborated with to win many international archi tecture awards.

THE HISTORY

The name Taif means “encompassing” in Arabic and has served as a summer capital for centuries, attracting tourists and visitors who enjoy the captivating views from windsculpted rocks, a pleasant climate, and the verdant setting of its surroundings, as well as the abundance of fruits which grow in its fertile valley. It is located 1,800 metres above sea level.

Today, more than one million people have made Taif their permanent home, and thousands more visit over the summer months.

Pilgrims take advantage of the proximity to Makkah, and the tourism industry also provides thousands of jobs to residents.

THE VISION

The vision of designing the new Al Taif destination is to create an exclusive lifestyle and residential address. The vision pillars are to develop a context driven

destination. in order to build using the unique Arabic style of architecture as the underlying design language, deep-rooted in tradition and culture, with scope for flexibility and appropriation in the future. it is aimed to develope a sense of community in order to To create vibrant streetscape and community spaces to promote a strong sense of community and a memorable network of places. We try to consider diversity and inclusivity To reflect the vernacular architecture of Taif in the urban fabric and open spaces of the masterplan through Barahat, Siqqas, and souqs. The fourth vision pillar is to create an authentic experience, to establish Al Worood to be a destination of authentic experience with a great sense of place and character.

There are 4 main characters and milestone to this design: -Authentic new park addresses of Taif -An urban engaging community -Seamless connectivity with pedestrian network -Concise park identities for the people who work, live and play.

THE VISION

Admits the rural tapestry of southern Malawi, we find the small village of Blantyre. Topped with green agricultural fields and colorful markets adorned by chitenjes, this village works hard to its keep residents fed and culture alive. But amidst the joy of its people, Blantyre struggles to reach the basic educational, health, and financial standards for a quality life. We believe the Malawi Community Centre will provide the necessary spaces to alleviate these systemic problems and hope it can only carry the strength found in the community.

UNDERSTANDING MALAWI

Malawi today faces a national crisis of below-average healthcare and economic instability amongst other problems. Presently, there are more than 9 million Malawians living below two dollars a day, with 45% of them having no access to clean water and 80% no access to sanitation. In Blantyre alone, more than half of the population struggles with poverty and keeping up literacy rates. We think that a solution as simple as a community center can alleviate this crisis, even if at small-scale, and offer a hopeful alternative to Blantyre

residents. We believe that by creating spaces dedicated for children to learn and play, for women to receive prenatal care, for the community to cook, and for residents to gather and pray, we can systemically begin to end a cycle of poverty.

Addressing Community Needs Through Design First and foremost, we wanted the architecture behind

THE MISSION

The Malawi Community Center to address both community needs and reflect opportunity for change. The first portion of the center is a dormitory and service section with a public entrance into kitchen areas but private groundings for the residencies. The communal kitchen and dining hall are designed to alleviate the process of food distribution already happening from the current community center. The dormitory section is designed to allocate local and international visiting students during the duration of their short-term educational programs. Students from Blantyre would come to receive a basic education from visiting teachers, while foreign students

36 . Hananeh Misaghi Portfolio 2022

would spend time learning from the village.

The second portion consists of the educational facilities which include a mosque and the classrooms. The traditional mosque holds an entrance facing the public road, inviting this part of the center to belong once again to any worshiper. The classrooms and workshops alongside it, placed together in a circle and facing a courtyard adorned by Malawi’s national tree, bring about a sense of privacy and contemplation. Amongst them can also be found a small clinic for treating medical emergencies and pre-natal care for women. Lastly, the third portion at the lowest part of the center is a guest house that hosts any temporary educators, sheikhs, and other visitors. It also holds a barn and sizable vegetable garden that would feed the residents of the center and community when needed.

The land plot itself is constructed at a downward angle that allows for an unobstructed view of the adjacent forest from every structure within. Most roofs will host gardens atop to contribute to the general green aesthetic inspired by the view ahead, and green agricultural fields seen in the village. The community center is also close to residential villages from its highest point, where the communal kitchen stands, and close to the forest from its lowest point with a protected Ha-Ha Wall to keep a clear view and safe territory.

MASSING PROCESS

During the process of designing volumes and space, we practiced a lot of poses and compositions. In this exercise, we examined the density of pedestrian access, circulation, and the priority of placement of each volume and measured the spaces accordingly to finalize and get a sense of the scale of the project consequently.

ASSESSING SITE ACCESS & OPPORTUNITIES

The slope of the site made it possible to have a suitable view of the spaces. Therefore, it was decided to place the Sheikh’s accommodation section at the beginning of the site and the students’ dormitory section at the top, so as to differentiate the use of the spaces and give privacy to each one accordingly.

THE VISION

The everyday life of each and every one of us today largely involves social functions and activities in which we participate on a daily basis. To improve the individual’s social life and collaboration with others, one of the most important city design structures deals with producing accessible and appropriate public spaces. In the absence of such spaces in Iran, we decided to put public and social spaces to a challenge and attempt to conceptualize an ideal possible option. The project’s principal idea is to present a new perspective on public urban spaces of which many Iranian cities such as Mash-had are in desperate need.

THE CURRENT SITUATION

Tagh Behesht is located in Mash-had, Iran. The project’s site has great potential to become an urban hub, given its proximity to one of Mash-had’s largest public parks which encourages and invites visitors of all ages. At the same time, its strategic geography allows it for it to become a major attraction for tourists and visitors

of nearby countries since Nation Park is among Mashhad’s first tourist attractions, inviting many travelers and tourists every year.

LEARN FROM THE PAST

The principal morphology of the design is inspired by bazaars such as Sar-Shoor, Farsh and Reza. Among the key characteristics of such bazaars is the porch-like entrance hall that, similar to the main portal, guides the pedestrians inside. Individual arches and porches all ultimately lead to the bazaar’s main entrance. Using vaults and arches to cover large openings is yet another visual characteristic of bazaars.

48 . Hananeh Misaghi Portfolio 2022
49. Architecture and Interior Design Portfolio 2022

SITE ANALYSIS

In light of the project site’s analysis, Mash-had has only a few green spaces given its area. The city’s public bazaars as the main social hubs and its business districts are concentrated in the city center and away from such green spaces. Therefore, we decided to design a new type of “Commercial Complex” with a more serious outlook towards Mash-had’s public spaces.

MASSING EVOLUTION

The presence of Mellat Park next door allowed us to clear a visual path to the park to create better views and more accessible gateways for visitors. This opening, so named layered park, is inspired by the Kang village near Mash-had where ground floor layers are connected to the upper layers using a walking pathway.

One of the main ideas in the project’s future design is connections to the city using pedestrian bridges to create safe and enjoyable walkways. The important principal behind the design of such bridges is to incorporate nature and green spaces as platforms situated in different areas around the project to produce a more pleasant experience and a

net positive environmental effect. These bridges, acting as pedestrian footpaths, present a new city experience for visitors by creating a different perspective of the city away from traffic.

THE LAYERED GARDENS

The flat middle garden much like a city junction is the intersection between all suspended pedestrian bridges, which invites the city in, eventually connecting the remaining business floors and bazaars.

This garden acts as the project’s main connection hub and is the promenade ultimately allowing circulation between the project and the bridges. The public garden floors much like the bridges extend the available views, improving the relationship between the business units and the visitors.

SUSTAINBALITY

Water has always been a symbol of life and serenity and a vital cause for inhabitation. Moreover, water is a brilliant influence on producing clear air and breeze specially in dry and hot areas such as the city of Mash-had. Construction of a small pond in the lower building floors not only allows for cool airflow during hot summers but also creates a beautiful and enchanting view.

60 . Hananeh Misaghi Portfolio 2022
61. Architecture and Interior Design Portfolio 2022

SUSPENDED GARDEN

The building’s exterior design is inspired by arcs frequently found in Mash-had’s prominent bazaars such as Sar-Shoor Bazaar and Reza. The brick mesh crust, as the second shell, blocks the unpleasant light from east and west, while still filtering a mild degree of light into the office areas.

62 . Hananeh Misaghi Portfolio 2022
64 . Hananeh Misaghi Portfolio 2022

HOME OFFICE

One of the more interesting components of this project is the suspended courtyards in between the office areas which provide a green space for all floors and business units as well as sufficient and direct light for office spaces.

Our main concern in designing such green spaces was to ensure proper distance between current business units so as to allow for a beautiful and open landscape; a design concern which has never been considered in any of the Iran’s current office building designs. The general typology and shape of this void is such that it is in continuation of the main layered garden without providing direct public access.

AL-DAEM EDUCATION CENTER

CATEGORY: Thesis M.A Interior Project - Education

ACTIVITY CONTEXT: Working on the whole project, from pre-concept, documentation and studies to the concept stage

THE VISION

Gender equality and honoring women’s rights has been a key and central consideration of sustainable development for the past few decades. As Middle Eastern societies gradually shift to major industrial production, education coupled with demand for new labor skills continues to be the major incentive to women’s social status and engagement. However, the move to the new heights of industry has yet to consider its women majority whose needs are largely economical. (Fernea, Spring 2000).

The project’s main goal is to create an educational place for women in one of the local mid-level areas of Dubai. This research project aims to design a space to enable women to access education and training opportunities in Dubai. Al-Daem means ‘support’ and the proposed centre will provide a place where women can access information, support, and advice on education and entrepreneurship. The centre’s outputs will also include short courses, and residential workshops to fulfill their individual and community potential.

THE CURRENT SITUATION

Among the royalty Emirati villas in the Al Quoz area, the houses of other locals who have been among the first inhabitants of this area can be seen. Cultural and economic differences in this region can be seen from one alley to another with humble families who grow trees and herbs in their small but encouraging and beautiful

yards for their daily food. Although poor economic conditions have prevented people from having a solid roof over their head, they have managed to preserve their culture, roots, and traditions. As can be seen in the pictures below, the old furniture in the corner of a backyard, turning the place into the evening gathering, although not nice enough to welcome more guests.

THE LOSS OF HUMAN SCALE

Urban form and architecture in the UAE has changed tremendously during the past three decades. In the early 1970s and 1980s, small-scale, highly diverse city blocks predominated in what Jan Gehl called “cities for people.

While what is more common in Dubai now are skyscrapers, automatic movements, and less public and green space. As an architect who was always interested in studies of real-life living conditions of residents in a city more than being absorbed by the grand and tremendous scale of downtowns like Dubai, the decision was made to focus on what Dubai is missing mostly and what considerations should be taken into account? What could be done by an architect , even though on a small scale, to boost people’s life and their living conditions.

Al Quoz, or Al Goze, is a locality/town in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE, is located in western Dubai. It is bordered to the north by Al Wasl and to the west by Umm Al Sheif, Al Manara and Al Safa, forming a long rectangle between Al Khail and Sheikh Zayed roads. Al Quoz consists of a mainly residential area in the northeast and an industrial area in the southwest with four subcommunities each. The Al-Qawz area location is prominent since it is in the center of Dubai, and this feature has made this area easily accessible to other parts of the country. long-term plans to integrate this industrial area with residential areas and activate its various urban places for easier access and urban prosperity have long existed.

This area is also in the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to raise the emirate’s position as an international cultural destination and transform it into a global capital of creative economy by 2025. (Government, 2021)

In line with this plan, two projects, Courtyards and Al Serkal Avenue have been designed and built in Al-Qawz industrial area 1 . In this regard, the Al-Daem education center project is expected to contribute to the local and urban development of the Al-Quz district as well.

CONTEXT ANALYSIS

AL QOUZ- DUBAI, UAE

In a more detailed study of this area, pedestrian and car accesses were examined. The dis tance of the stakeholders to the heart of the site is all less than 30 minutes on foot, but due to the humidity and extremely hot weather in Dubai, the distance of more than 10 minutes will lead to physical complications.

Access to basic needs such as supermarkets, education, and the hospital is relatively bal anced in this area. Yet unfortunately, the poor condition of the villas in the area has given an abnormal appearance to the luxurious villa and neighborhood.

The existence of two mosques around this area is also significant. This comparison will have a significant impact on identifying stakeholders around the site, identifying tourist attraction nodes, and the potential placement of the site according to the activities formed around it.

URBAN INTERPRETATION

The location of this project is in such a way it is considered be tween the two neighborhoods of old Shabia and luxury villas. This is a good opportunity to develop solidarity and linkage between two neighborhoods that have grown separately over the years and have never had a positive impact on each other. Moreover, the proximity of the project to the neighborhood mosque is another positive point of the design. Religious buildings have always been a safe place for residents to gath er, where a variety of training classes are also held. Hence,

the potential for attracting visitors to this area is powerful because both of these projects (mosque and Al-Daem center) are expected to be recognized as a social hub in the area and will bring prosperity and income for the community.

ONE OF THE MOST SIG NIFICANT CRISITISMS AGAINST URBAN DUBAI, IS THE LOW BUDGET IN TERVENTIONS. THE CITY IS NOT DESIGNED BASED ON HUMAN SCALE, AND PRES ENT A LACK OF SHADED PEDESTRIAN WALKWAYS.

BASTAKIYA KITCHEN CAFE

CATEGORY: 1st semester M.A Interior Project - Education and Retail

ARCHITECT: Hanananeh Misaghi

UNIVERSITY: Heriot-Watt University, Dubai

DESIGN YEAR: 2021

ACTIVITY CONTEXT: Working on the whole project, from pre-concept, documentation and studies to the concept stage

THE VISION

Family forms an essential role in the Emirati community; it signifies unconditional endless love, care and respect. The most important family element is the spirit of mutual responsibility which brings together and unites all family members.

The Emirati lifestyle and many, if not, other countries in the middle-east region are quite similar when it comes to matters of culture, privacy and hospitality, and designation of spaces between family members and guests.

The idea of combining cafe and kitchen started when I was looking to develop and design a space to serve people. An area that generates enthusiasm and gives life to the relatively inactive space of Bastakiya. Therefore, the activity of women and their absence of presence in this region attracted my attention. Focusing on women’s role, if controlled, will bring prosperity and social awareness to the area.

By studying the culture of Al Bastaki, we will figure out the role of women in the development of this neighbor hood which to some degree has been much more influ encing than before. This shows the desire of women to participate in society and their progress and indepen dency.

Regarding the conservative Emirati families that often encourage mothers to work indoors and take care of their children; It is time for the mothers to take a step towards their independency and increase their self-con fidence and mentality.

As an architects, we play a key role in changing the prin

ciples of our community, the belief and mentality. By designing an educational space through which mothers can both educate and improve their mentality, and on the other hand can economically boost their confidence, we can have an influential impact on our society.

There is a well-established link generally between achievement and self-confidence in creative teaching and learning which both parties would get involved with. Either the student whom is boosting his/her knowledge and confidence or the teacher/giver are benefiting from the educational atmosphere.

The proposed space could be an educational and com mercial plot in which middle age women can either teach or learn cooking lessons and ultimately sell the final product of their workshops in the dedicated space acts as a small cafe downstairs, in the same place.

A PORTRAIT OF PROGRESS

In the course of my investigation, I came across excerpts reviewing women’s role and their social presence in the UAE. Reports produced by the UAE Ministry of State for Federal National Council Affairs (MFNCA) outline both the developments and challenges associated with women’s progress in the country. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is an example of a rapid and successful development story in the region, in terms of both the infrastructure and economy of the country and also the progress of its people. Such achievement is perhaps best demonstrated in the growing presence of Emirati women as contributors in this process. Women, who account for 49.3 percent of the national population,

96 . Hananeh Misaghi Portfolio 2022
05

according to the 2005 Census, are at the front of the workforce in the UAE in both the government sector as well as the private sector.

THE MISSION

Today, with the ongoing evolution of UAE society and the dynamic modernization process over the past decade, the government’s vision for women is based on providing them with the necessary tools to achieve excellence. This strategy aims to revitalize women’s role in both the public and private sector and to make sure all career tracks remain available to women who might be interested to pursue them. In short, the UAE understands that it is of national importance for women to contribute to the development of the country and its many processes.

Having examined the available features after site analysis, the report concluded that the usability and

activity of galleries and restaurants in the Al Bastaki area is less than other available functions.

In combining aspects of a restaurant with a café to include artistic and educational activities, I realized that a café with a strong focus on culinary and cooking education could further grow the economy of the area and provide better education.

Al Fahidi or Bastakiya area is being known as one of the most historical neighborhood in Dubai which was primarily built by the affluent Persian Merchants drawn to Dubai by the rich trade opportunities and incentives offered by the Emirati government. This area was the most prominent region for small start-up businesses, like the idea of a kitchen cafe since it beholds the history and the cultural essence of UAE.

The pedestrian connection to existing neighborhoods and the designed building should not be cut off. Therefor, it was decided to elevate the building by one floor so pedestrians could pass by conveniently.

The user’s visual connection to the designed space is marked by a red element, seen below. This element is espe cially visible to pedestrians passing through the corner of a neighboring building allowing them to easily find their way to the designed building.

The pedestrian accessibility flow is kept during the re-design stage as it was meant not to contradict with the existing status. I tried to achieve multiple perspective views and voids to make the interior spaces more fluid and exciting.

It was planned to design a viewing deck for the users after their classes. One of the options was to design the viewing space on top of the host buildings. The first attempt, illustrated here, shows the interior circulation was quite decent but again due to host building (parapet) height, it proved to be a difficult access point.

In next stage of the design, it occurred to me that having these floating viewing decks should provide adequate privacy special for the conservative women visitors from the area. I was inspired by the one of the tradi tional architectural elements of Al Bastaki/ UAE, the Mashrabiya. The two floating view ing decks could be covered up by perforated skin is order to provide privacy and shading for the users.

The final decision was made after I positioned the box on top of the other host building. Accessibility is flow ing and correct and this option provides a much better view of the Al Bastaki.

THE VISION

Building in nature constitutes a contradiction, as architecture enables immersive access to the landscape, while at the same time, natural landmarks are being slowly engulfed by tourists. The human presence in natural landscapes is an interplay of scales, a juxtaposition of archetypal shelters against the vast sceneries, as well as a negotiation between access to the landscape and environmental conservation.

Um Al Quwain is one of the most significant lost cities of Arabia which is believed to be the city of Omana which was the most important port in the Gulf during the first century CE. Um Al Quwain will be an exquisite sanctuary offering indulgent experiences, seamlessly customized to the unique needs of each visitor.

THE VISION

A home is a place where you have created a living for yourself, you are attached to it emotionally, it somehow becomes a part of you - it carries the notion of comfort, security, happiness. This Villa is located in Dubai, Albarsha designed for a young enthusiastic couple. Their mentality and style was pure contemporary.

My experience on this project was mostly focused on the presentations, illustrations and preparation of required documents, with regards to the interior design, material and spaced programing, finding the best graphic way to present and highlight the concept and ideas behind the design.

THE VISION

This project is a milestone-making task planned by Gwangju in order to move into a new era. Therefore, it aims to embrace future-oriented values such as from ‘development’ to ‘regeneration’, from ‘device’ to ‘knowledge’, and from ‘efficiency and administrative priority’ to ‘culture and participation priority’ that are pursued by Gwangju. We expect the plan to capture this value, both symbolically and practically.

Located in the Korean city of Gwangju, long renown as a place of culture and educational excellence, the project combines all aspects of creativity, whether written, spoken, performed or preserved in digital formats. It recognises - and celebrates - the fact that to prosper and remain relevant in the age of digitalization, libraries have to fully embrace both the physical and the virtual.

THE MISSION

As the intellectual heart of the cultural city of Gwangju it is a venue for seekers of wisdom, those wishing for a private place of reflection and people wishing to establish a community which emphasises intellectual appreciation of words, thoughts and ideas.

Once Upon a Forest acts as a focus for the urban environment of Gwangju, a statement of location, a place of cultural exchange and a venue for human interconnectivity.

THE URBAN APPROACH

During the idea discovery stage, sketches explored the many possibilities of the site. However, throughout the many sketches, it was apparent that they all had one thing in common, a public space at the heart of the proj ect will connect all things together, Environmental, So cial, Cultural, Spatial etc

OUR RESPONSE

Going “Beyond Books” it harbours images, performance spaces, digital archives and the written word in a serene space amidst greenery and water.

Taking on board an existing industrial plant, it prioritises regeneration of existing forms over displacementand culture and participation over bureaucracy and administration.

As an adornment of the city skyline it entices in visitors through winding pathways and across flowing water and on entry the eye is drawn upwards through open roof spaces to the skies – the upward view of the infinite mirroring the vast swathes of knowledge, written, digital and performed which form the central core of the library.

Once upon a Forest makes an immediate statement to those approaching, as its draws them into its spell. Its golden wooden Interior, a striking solid form with sloping roofs reflecting the traditional Korean design vernacular, captivates the immediate skyline.

CONTEXT UNDERSTANDING

The site is located in an area in need of an identity, a building that brings «Korea» back to Korea. Opportunities of connectivity from many sides make the location a perfect spot for a cultural hub.

URBAN CONNECTIVITY

A series of pathways entice the visitor in, leading from the urban environment, across water and through woodland, in order to allow those looking for the experience of knowledge to enter a state of reception

for the mind – away from the everyday and open to the new.

The project is a major design statement, standing out among its surroundings, but once inside also playful and welcoming.

On arrival the gaze is drawn upwards, seducing the viewer into entering the building to explore its treasures. Outside is the infinity of the universe – inside is the infinite potential of the human mind.

129. Architecture and Interior Design Portfolio 2022

SACRED WISDOM

Once Upon A Forest goes beyond books – it looks to wards all aspects of the preservation and dissemination of the vast array of human thought and imagination.

It is a space for learning, and interaction for both young and old, a cross-cultural centre which welcomes all, and allows enquiring minds to reach out into new areas, ex plore philosophies, and research the world and beyond in all its myriad facets - while at the same time acting as a forum for connectivity, with speakers, debates, perfor mances and artistic showcases.

It is a home for traditional literary forms - books, news papers, journals, magazines, scientific papers, dis courses and other forms of text. But it also encompasses the ever-growing field of the virtual, with access to all that exists in cyberspace

After the landscaping draws seekers of experience in, an entrance moment awaits. A spiral design allows views through all three stroreys - up and out to the yonder, blue skies, clouds or a star-filled horizon, depending on the time of day or season of the year.

THE VISION

Tamayouz Design Challenge was a 7 day design challenge to design our ideal lock down space during Covid-19 pan demic time

This challenge was open for architects, artists, engi neers, designers and the general public. Due to the on going challenges of the pandemic, people are spending more time than planned in their homes, flats, gardens, and living rooms, and many of these spaces are not equipped to satisfy 24-hour lock down. Participants are given 7 days to design their ideal lock down space, that helps us survive the pandemic physically and mentally. The space must be 25 square meters and it can be part of a building or on its own

A visionary approach for developing sustainable, afford able and flexible spaces for the forgotten people living in mega cities like Cairo and many other cities around

CURRENT SITUATION- THE CASE

Cities like Cairo and many cities all around the world are facing major challenges when it comes to rapid urban ization, growing economic inequalities, lack of opportu nities and social isolations situation confronting tough circumstances. Especially after the COVID-19 Pandemic where people were forced to be locked down in spaces that do not offer any level of comfort and sense of be longing

The question, “How will 25 SQ.M enhance our quality of ” urban life?” is as much a social and political question as a spatial one

THE VISION

Drawing inspiration from the vibrant souks of the Middle East and the wider Arab world, the mobile market brings street commerce right into the heart of now. Dubai De sign District is set to be home to The Boutique Bazaar — comprised of pop-up kiosks of various sizes, adapt able for the requirements of any trader, and ready to welcome visitors eager for interaction and an altogether human experience when it comes to browsing for pur chases

The Vision: Moving from place to place — bringing the opportunity for interaction on a commercial and person al level to all parts, the bazaar can take on the form of the caravans which used to supply the souks — a moving repository of goods, people, culinary delights, stories and song which enriches the lives of all who experience it

LEARNING FROM THE PAST

The tradition of trade meets a celebration of culture in the Boutique Bazaar. While the design district is the first home to the market, it has the potential to travel. Any area in the city can be home to the kiosks as they modify their layout and juxtaposition to become a tem porary adornment to a variety of individual neighbour hoods

These organic thoroughfares draw everyone who wants to experience the atmosphere and ambiance of a tradi tional souk, straight into what has been the way of trade for the Arab world for centuries — but with a contempo rary slant, with its location in the centre of cutting-edge design in one of the most forward thinking and progres sive cities on earth

Throughout the design process we tried to consider different interior design variations based on the storage space, while avoiding damage to cargo and goods. Each one of these kiosks could be used either individually or as a series of inter-connected kiosks ultimately forming a bigger module for different types of retail and activities. Variation in size and availability of multiple functions were the other main factors of our design.

THE VISION

Salian is an Iranian clothing brand in its initial phases of development. Our studio was tasked to design its office headquarter. The initial construction plans presented to client by a different firm were not satisfactory and we had to rethink the design with its existing structure and limitations. We proposed two alternatives out of which the second design became final. This project is still a work in progress and our studio is actively involved.

The main objective of this design is the incorporation of public visitors to transform the building from a pri vate isolated mass into a multipurpose structure. We connect the public and private/employee entrances via a void which connects all the spaces together

ART DIRECTOR: HES studio

DESIGN YEAR: 2019

ACTIVITY CONTEXT: Design Developer,Research and Graphic Design

THE VISION

The Plasco Building was a 17-story high-rise landmark building in Tehran, the capital city of Iran. At the time of its construction in the 1960s it was the tallest building in Iran and was considered an iconic part of the Teh ran skyline. The building collapsed on 19 January 2017 during a fire. The purpose of this competition is to de sign a commercial building with its past uses

The Plasco building in the past has been the site of gathering a wide range of people and one of the main commercial centres of this axis, which has welcomed a large number of people on many occasions like the New Year’s Eve and the reopening of schools, etc. Moreover, many different kinds of economies have been emerged in this part due to the impact of this building.

In this competition, we try to strengthen and restore the positive elements of the Plasco building. The building’s exterior design is also inspired by the new concept as well as the tragic fire accident that is forever recorded

THE MISSION

in the history of the Iranian people. For this reason, we try to connect the pathway to the building and use the ceiling of the 5-story building as a way to house more people into the building and use the spaces as the museum to pay tribute to and in remembrance of fire-fighters who died in the tragedy of fire explosion.

The growth of the Tehran metropolis has historically been the central part of the city. This part of the city from the past has been the center of economic, cultural and historical activities, an important part of Tehran’s identity and in the direction of urban development in Tehran. The main streets of the downtown area are in fact the skeletons of the expansion of Tehran. The Re public Street is one of the most central streets of the eastern-western dynamic of Tehran. This axis is one of the most important historical and important places such as the Tehran Market and Laleh Zar and the histor ical context of the city.

THE VISION

As the largest metropolitan area in the region, both in terms of land and population, Tehran lacks sufficient social and recreational infrastructure. This project is about connecting the park and the lake in Chitgar Rec reational Zone. The main criteria here is to create a platform for social interactions in the city Taking into account the lost green space in the region, the urban strategy here is to redefine Chitgar as the “Persian Garden of Tehran”. In this classification, the building becomes the Persian Pavilion (Kooshk) over looking the scenery in the garden

INTERPRETING TRADITIONAL IRANI AN GARDEN ELEMENTS

The connection between the park and the lake was formed by extending the existing site roads onto elevat ed ramps, overlooking the natural landscape between the two landmarks.

ACCESS CONNECTION BETWEEN PARK AND LAKE

All the access connections between the park and lake are designed based on the natural existing pathways. At the top of the ramps there is an urban deck which persuades the passer-bys to stay for a while and enjoy the lake and park scenery.

ACCESS CONNECTION BETWEEN PARK AND LAKE

Two functional zones are created based on the site situation:

1. “The main entrance” which includes underground parking areas with a number of access points to the green landscape on the ground level.

2. “The Pavilion and the adjacent plaza“ as a platform for social activities.

162 . Hananeh Misaghi Portfolio 2022

164 . Hananeh Misaghi Portfolio 2022

Volumetric spaces are scattered along the ramps, forming various socio-cultural activities around the site. These spaces provide a social platform for “events” that are missing in the everyday life of the citizens.

While walking along the ramps, visitors experience various social activities with the choice of participation or observation. Engaging peo ple from different social levels, these activities include interactive art events which lead to social growth of the community. At the top of the ramps there is an urban deck which persuades the passer-bys to stay for a while and enjoy the lake and park scenery.

ACTIVITY CONTEXT: Massing practices, Design Developer and illustration

THE VISION

This contest asked participants to design a house with 7m x 20m square and 7m height. The subject of the competition is to focus on the interior design of the proposed space. Ground excavations and usage of underground levels were forbidden in the rules. The design is also specifically tasked with presenting Dolche Vita brand accessories in demonstrations.

DESIGN PROCESS

The morphology of this project is inspired by modular divisions. The inclusion of various perspectives for each residential space is a variable far too often dismissed. The preference for flat spaces seems more prevalent

among designers and builders without paying attention to ideal visual viewpoints which, if I may add, should be reviewed and addressed.

170 . Hananeh Misaghi Portfolio 2022

The primary objectives of this project were to focus on the kitchen and washrooms. Per image (1) above, the orange part of the maquette is dedicated entirely to kitchen and washrooms. The white spheres shown in images (7), (8) and (9) demonstrate other residential spaces such as bedrooms and the living room. The eventual shape per image (9) that is created by removing the white spheres forms the very basis of this design. The main idea in this design is to preserve the consistency between the voids. The white sphere represent people in living spaces which move vertically and horizontally in different floors. 23

Eghbaliye is a city located in the central part of the Qa zvin province and is located 7 KM southwest of Qazvin city, which is formed linearly and on the road of Qaz vin-Zanjan. The population of the city has increased by about 16 percent over the past 50 years, but its spatial extent has not been impressive. In the same years, given the large number of immigrant villagers and residents of other cities to Qazvin, the increasing gap between soci

ety classes and distribution of wealth, and cheap land and housing in the city, Eghbaliye has attracted more citizens in recent years The main purpose of this project is to organize the city of Eghbaliye, which will be reviewed and critiqued after reviewing the current status of the city’s livelihood, eco nomic, social and demographic conditions

1. Identify the main roads of internal access

2. Dividing the site into four sections and connecting them through the EastWest and North-South communication rods.

According to studies, water shortages in the urban planing of Eghbaliye was one of the most serious problems of this city. Thus, the water streams on the pedestrian paths are inspired by the architectural pattern of the Iranian garden, which is the formation of the garden by follow ing the geometry and utilizing the flow of water. It facilitates the water supply through water pumping.

DAY FUNCTIONS

The lack of urban open spaces is one of the disadvantages of Eghbaliye city in previous studies. In the design, I intended to improve the communication between the two groups of high-income society and low-income society, while contributing to the higher quality of the social and cultural context.

According to studies, the scientific and cultural level of citizens of Eghbaliye is very low given population and land. The design of an open urban library is one of the projections of the city’s future.

Café is designed as one the DAY FUNCTIONS of urban open space for people to communicate while enjoying their free time together.

THE VISION

Maku is a city in the West Azerbaijan Province, Iran and was previously known as Artaz . On the account of the cold and mountainous weather and also poor urban and road infrastructure, a large number of Maku citizens emigrate to big cities each year.

One of the solutions to this problem was the implementation of cultural and recreational facilities which was the reason behind designing this museum. QABAN castle is located on the north part of the Maku city

with an urban pedestrian pathway into the mountains of Maku.

This museum is inspired by the QABAN castle and is tasked to protect and preserve the remains of the castle relics.
