Retrofitting an abandoned building into an energy efficient building in a rural area in Midwest provides multiple challenges. We were facing social, economic and environmental issues and worked with the Manilla Economic Development Corporation as the owner of the building along the way. All these aspects are related to each other and they should work as an integrated system. The existing, vacant building is modified into a complex that can serve the community need in a sustainable, energy efficient way. The main building of Manilla school has built in 1915 and was developed through elementary building in the west and new gym in 1973.After abundant of this building, people tend to revive the building with new program. The challenge of this project was to retrofit a vacant school building in the small Iowa town Manilla into an energy efficient building and create a dynamic and active community by bringing people from other places to Manilla.Thus, the program is developed based on Iowa’s culture of food production. Caravanserai is a middle-eastern space, which is a place between big cities where travelers can bring products from other cities to sell, can rest and can communicate with other people.

Dunlap Arboretum Pavilion Design and build
Summer 2016 Urbandale, IA, USA Group: Studio 581
The Bishop Family Shelter is the first structure built in the recently inaugurated Dunlap Park Arboretum in Urbandale, Iowa. We worked closely with the community to ensure that the 16’ x 40’ covered park shelter could accommodate both community recreational and educational activities featured within the arboretum. The project’s location on the site, the simple form of the cedar and galvanized steel structure, and the refined level of detail in the benches, shelves, and tables reflects a purposeful approach to design that sees elegance in the interplay of these basic and profound elements. This project helped me as a student to learn more about how a structure construct and get to know about the material s like wood and how it is using on the site.

Jahanshahr Hospital
Spring 2014 Karaj, Alborz, IR Group: Kimya Salari, Maryam feiz
What is important in designing a hospital? How we can design a function base space, which is usually unpleasant for users into a better and friendlier space? Hospitals are places that function plays a vital role in the system and there are certain regulations to follow. Every space has its own story and regulations.Access is another important point in designing hospitals. Thus, in this project we tried to design a building that creates a friendlier space for users while it works well in function.

Kinetic Knot ULI Submission
Spring 20\7 Chicago, IL, U.S.A Group: Kimya Salari, Saina Shayanjoo Theodor Sulivan Mohan Umidicity Eric Lawrence

Kinetic Knots refers to the force that ties several parts together. Kinetic Knot, or “The Knot,” is a planned mixed-use development that will tie in to the surrounding community, the city of Chicago and the Chicago River, all of from which the existing site has been cutoff. With Chicago continuing to expand, the peripheral of the city is in high demand and this redevelopment seeks to fulfill the need for an urban hub outside of the city center.The Knots will exploit the industrial location of the site while meshing with the bold history of Chicago. The site will “tie the knot” with surrounding neighborhoods of Lincoln Park,Wicker Park, Noble Square and Near North Side, the desirable burrows it has long been separated from since the creation of Kennedy Expressway. The design brings new access to the public with a plan for utilization by new residents and businesses for the next two centuries. The hallmark draws of Kinetic Knots include healthy living, connectivity and agriculture. The creation of Kimya Park, a central feature The Knots, is designed to bring more people into the site from the surrounding neighborhoods and beyond.

Oreon Scott Chapel
Summer 2016 Drake university, Des Moines, IA, U.S.A Kimya Salari

Does light have capacity to change a space? Can we use natural light to lighten a specific spot during the day? In this project after scanning the Scott chapel and study it carefully, we were supposed to change something in space that change the meaning of the chapel. My project focus on light. The plan of this building is central and everything focuses on the center. I decided to change the light in a way that always lighten the northern part of the floor plan, and behind that wall, I designed a space for a statue .

Hogback Bridge Structural Model
Fall 2015 Winterset, IA, USA Group: Kimya Salari, shawn barron Noel Gonzales

Hogback Bridge is a historical bridge in iowa. In this project we studies the structure of the bridge and learned how it works. We presented our studies by making a model from the structure.
How we can be creative by using a simple module and change space using that? This question is the subject of this project. At the first part I defined an abstract model of a pyramid, which is one of the stablest form. In the second part I tried to create a curve model out of this abstract modules. After making a half sphere from combining these modules, I turned on light inside it. The shadow was amazing and it was hard to understand what this module made from.
