RESUME
I am a M.Arch student at Kent State University with a master’s in architectural engineering. With nearly two years of experience as an architecture designer, I worked on diverse residential projects before I came to the U.S. I also have internship experiences in the U.S for 6 months and work on projects of varying scales. Skills I was able to employ include 3D modeling in Rhino and Revit, conceptual design, diagramming, rendering, and presentation. I’m proud to have won two AIA Awards (2022 and 2023) and achieved different awards in architectural competitions. My move to the U.S. is driven by a commitment to broaden my professional experience in the best companies, understand design workflows, and work towards becoming a licensed architect. h

B house: a 1-floor, 1300 sq.Ft residential project. The first floor features a private 2-bedroom residence with contemporary concrete and a Thermowood facade. Since it has access to the light just from one direction, there is a backyard, which makes two bedrooms enjoy backyard access for enhanced illumination and ventilation. It was important to the client to prior the living room to the lighting rather than the private parts. BACK YARD 1.2

From this formerly industrial Miami neighborhood, a vibrant and artistic community has grown, known for its colorful street art, creative atmosphere, and diverse community. Wynwood Hive is a cultural hub where art, music, and food converge. The façade of the building mirrors Wynwood›s creative spirit and serves as a captivating canvas, reflecting the dynamic program of its surroundings. The north-facing facade captures the living spirit of the Wynwood by creating a visual dialogue between the building and its surroundings. This interactive canvas displays an abstract composition of windows which reflects the neighborhood›s vibrant street art and diverse community. Each window is a different scene that connect interior activity to the dynamic culture on the street. The other surfaces of the building are sheathed with a mirrored curtainwall system that reflect the neighborhood and highlight its contextual significance. By day, it reflects the colorful and painting walls around it and at night, it transforms into a lantern.

Interior Elements and Hanging Cube The Wynwood Hive, situated in Wynwood, represents a captivating blend of industrial and contemporary design, transforming its interior into an artistic haven. At its core is a hanging cube, strategically placed as if it were a centerpiece in a gallery, symbolically echoing Wynwood’s industrial history. The exposed steel structure enhances the space, infusing it with a genuine and unfiltered atmosphere. The integration of a glazing system brings in natural light, establishing a dynamic interplay between the curated space and its surroundings. The cantilever design, extending dramatically beyond the main structure, serves both an aesthetic and functional purpose, creating covered outdoor spaces for a unique visual experience. Collectively, these architectural elements turn the interior into a gallery, narrating the story of Wynwood’s transformation. The space is not just an architectural marvel; it’s a convergence point for art, music, and food, offering visitors a unique and enriching experience. Wynwood Hive stands as a testament to the neighborhood’s evolution from an industrial past to a dynamic cultural hub, inviting all to partake in the vibrant energy of its cultural renaissance.

GREEN HUB
A Sustainable Urban Vision
Year:2022 Location : Chicago - United States Academic/ Individual Project
Winner Honorable Award
AIA
Cleveland Award Student Category
2023
Re imagining urban housing is crucial for providing long-term social wellbeing amid environmental, economic, and health challenges. Sustainable housing must blend architecture, nature, and public experience and through diverse landscapes for urban resiliency and regeneration, using landscape attributes as a foundation for an Eco-friendly community. Green Hub is a visionary project in Chicago’s West Loop that focuses on sustainable urban housing. It includes three main elements: planting trees for resilience, creating a green community, and offering adaptable housing to prevent gentrification. This project aims to improve the area’s environment, quality of life, and inclusivity. Issue: Urban Resilience and Green Depletion Addressing the rapid depletion of Chicago›s natural resources, particularly trees, amidst environmental challenges. Concept: Harmony in Diversity Fusing nature, architecture, and public experience, GREEN HUB transforms the West Loop into a thriving Eco-friendly community. Solution: Threefold Approach for Sustainable Living: a) Landscape Resiliency and Urban Forestry: Planting Thousand trees to combat climate change, flooding, and air pollution. b) Community-Centric Development: Raising tree canopies, expanding green spaces, proposing sustainable housing, and enhancing intersections. c) Adaptive Unit Typology: A forward-thinking blueprint incorporating mixed-use spaces, innovative housing, and adaptive units to prevent gentrification. In conclusion, GREEN HUB pioneers greener, resilient, and inclusive urban living, shaping a sustainable future for West Loop.

Cultural Dome Year:2018 Academic/Individual
Location: The city of shiraz is historical and cultural and has 27 cultural centers with different topics. The proposed location is on the southeast side of shiraz because the concentration of most of the cultural-historical buildings is in other parts of the city. Photography cultural centre: How can it simultaneously reflect the culture, old buildings, and history of tourists or locals in one place? Photography and its connection with all those give a reason to answer this question by designing a different cultural center. The focus is on developing a cultural-photography center that keeps all the cultural-historical objects in the city in one place so that you can visit all of them simultaneously and in one place. Modern geodesic dome as a cultural object: Therefore, focusing on the spherical shape of glass became necessary for four reasons: 1)The spherical mode emphasizes the center 2)The glass reflects the city›s old context, history, and culture. 3)Double curved sphere out of tesselated geometry and a 3d structural system contrasts with the context.

connection of the glass to the structure
The materials used are steel and aluminum alloys, toughened laminated security glass that can be single, double or triple glazed, with various options for transparency. Geodesic domes are threedimensional structures using stable triangles approximating spheres to create multiple load carrying paths from point of load to point of support. Triangles are the strongest shape because they have fixed angles and don’t distort very easily.
Case Study The
Montreal
Biosphere
The Montreal Biosphere is a museum dedicated to the environment. It is located at Parc Jean-Drapeau, on Saint Helen Island in the former pavilion of the United States for the 1967 World Fair, Expo 67 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The museum s geodesic dome was designed by Buckminster Fuller.The building originally formed an enclosed structure of steel and acrylic cells.

The challenge of this project is to make a basic design for a building with complex geometry. This design includes programming of the 8thfloor building and occupancy based on international building codes. In the second stage, each group member was responsible for designing a structured system, and I was responsible for designing the Steel structure. The third stage was the group design of the building envelope system in two types of curtain walls and precast panels, considering the percentage of glazing in each. And finally, design the developable surface system.

Red WALK PARK Year:2021 Location: Cleveland,United States Academic/Individual Project
Winner Merit Award
AIA
Cleveland Award Student Category
2022
The Red Walk park is the centerpiece between the lake and the downtown. It is where a majority of the people walk to reach the lake daily and on weekends. Try redesigning the park as a public space within the city that is not like other parks but a piece of nature on a small scale. This park›s function is to allow people to experience nature on a small urban scale in the city center at any time of the day or night. Form: With a conceptual design, the idea of the new landform has been created by combining curved models by subtracting, adding, and mixing two models. Using datum and curved forms to shape brought us closer to the primary form, central path, and concept. Programming of the landscape and zones: The new proposed programming is divided into three main zones, 1) an open grassy area, 2) tree lines and 3) shrubs. The proposed landform is the result of layering the final conceptual clay model process and All these three zones› programming. All these three zones are connected with twisting pathways linking one to another. Seasonality: Having a line of Ginkgo trees and Norway maples and mixing them allows having a seasonality concept in the park. Besides, The red concrete pathways contrast the green of the grassy area during the summer, becoming consistent with the color of the seasonal trees during the fall. Zoning and New Contours: Try redesigning the park as a public space within the city that is not like other parks but a piece of nature on a small scale. Consequently, The new proposed programming is divided into three different main zones, 1) an open grassy area, 2) tree lines, and 3) shrubs. The proposed landform is the result of layering the final conceptual clay model process and All these three zones’ programming.

Central Park Year:2017 Academic/Individual Project 2 Week Project
In recent years, due to economic problems, the people of the capital have migrated to smaller cities around it. One of these cities is the new city of Andisheh. This migration has caused a significant growth of construction in the town of Andisheh. One of the major problems of this new city is the lack of urban and green public spaces. This matter has not been paid attention to at all. In this project, an attempt has been made to design a large urban park to positively impact the city›s people both from the point of view of ecology and the health. The park includes the most modern light structures for various educational, cultural, and recreational activities. Artificial lakes, artificial hills as well as different native trees give people the opportunity to experience being in nature in a city without nature.

The Effe c t s Of
GREEN SPACE O n Ci tizens
Living in a city with enough green space could be manageable. Not only does stress directly impact wellbeing, but faulty attempts to cope with it may increase its negative effects. Both physical and mental products are considerable. The former such as increased diseases such as obesity and high blood pressure, and the latter, such as improving stress, anxiety, and feeling of depression. Urban green space, such as parks, playgrounds, and residential greenery, can promote mental and physical health and reduce morbidity and mortality in urban residents by providing psychological relaxation and stress alleviation, stimulating social cohesion, supporting physical activity, and reducing exposure to air pollutants, noise, and excessive heat.

When re-thinking and re-reading the old elements, produce new architectural forms, at the same time, they reveal hidden aesthetic features that were initially invisible to us. In re-defining the project planning and project issue in order to activate its facilities and capacities, the site and the program were expanded. In the Wproposed plan, the site area and its design problem have been developed from the design of the entrance counter and the mainentrance to the whole complex. In this way, the project has expanded a new layer in redefining architecture and turning it into objects to be seen. In this project, we re-think and re-read the architecture and historical Isfahan objects. collected objects from the history of this city have been detached and deconstructed from their previous context and finally they are recreating in a new and weird condition. This project is formed from the assemblage of founded objects and in the new context, it has gone beyond the previous condition and distanced from itself. In this way, the «Objects’ City-Garden» is born in the middle of this city in a weird reality.

Program-Function
What if we avoided detailed restricted schedule?f We avoid giving functionalityW to architecture because we think that new architectural objects that have been created have no predefined definition and these are the people who can walk among them, play sports or even have an artist to set up a gallery in them. Our idea is that artists and people to be able to use all of .these objects, their lands and spaces
Ornoment
What if we think of an alternative ?f Re-thinking the form and shape of historical and traditional carpets .will reactivate the capacity of this object as a decoration The carpet texture, which in the X and Y axes tries to represent the space like flower gardens, was used in an alternative way to ornament objects that have been somehow recreated in the Z-axis and this has led to the reproduction of the flower garden on this axis.In this way, the form and shape of Isfahan traditional carpets are out of the previous familiar position (spread on the ground) and .used in the weird reality and unfamiliar situation

Kurgi Observation Year:2020 Competition/Group Project Group Members: Hossein Mosavi,Maryam Baharvandi,Shayan Adham,Ali Jamali My Role: Design development, Diagram development The importance of the unique nature of Latvia, listed as a nature conservation area by UNESCO, on the one hand, and the fact that the horses of this area are close to extinction, on the other hand, motivated us to see this project beyond mere tower architecture. Instead of a tower for viewing, our project is a tower for being viewed- a project which emphasizes its circumference to highlight the importance of the unique nature of this conservation area and the environment of endangered horses.

The Confrontation of
Two Form
This tower is not constructed with the aim of dominancy to the environment; it is also built to provide the maximum possible transparency and exposure. These ideas led to emptying the masses and replacing them with transparent programs. Multiple internal layers of the tower determine our social interactivity plans. The importance of building an infrastructure filled by group activities performed inside the tower increases by two folds due to the vicinity of the project location to borders. Accenting the importance of group activities was a key design factor that made it possible to put different folks and cultures near each other within the environment background and green bed. This way, visiting the tower and enjoying the environment will become a communal enjoyment and personal activity. The further we go from the tower core towards its external body, the calmer group activities we face.
37
Floor Plans and Programming The existence of an open area in the heart of green pastures and far from any habitation will raise these questions: how should our building communicate with around circumference? How is the visual relationship established between the tower and around the rim? How do pedestrians and drivers access the building? What is the role of the yard-owned building in the project? For us, the first important fact is that the tower is close to the center of Estonia. This caused our plans to be shifted to interactive and exhibitive ones. Preparing galleries in which the artistic works of two countries are introduced and providing exhibition and concert areas are among such plans which both lead to the cultural rapprochement of the countries and invite other countries to contribute to this interaction and dialogue. Among these plans, the classification of landscapes in terms of height and the definition of the tower functions. So that lower noise pollution functions were laid out at heights in our design. The ground floor serves as an exhibition salon. An additional salon on this floor introduces the rare species of Kurgi horse and provides guests with therapeutic experiences with the horses.

After the years of both conscious or unconscious mechanization of the human mind as well as environmental colonialism, we now have every motivation to recover the forgotten nature, abandoned justice, and equity in overpopulated and dominant cities. Contemporary cities reflect such weaknesses and the frailties of ourselves. A layer beyond is a proposal based on a critical re-evaluation of nature capacities, regardless of the built environment. The examination of the relationship between the city and the natural environment is embedded within a secondary type of relation between the city and daily life. “...if the design is merely an inducement to consume, then we must reject design; if architecture is merely the codifying of a bourgeois model of ownership and society, then we must reject architecture; if architecture and town planning is merely the formalization of present unjust social divisions, then we must reject town planning and its cities...until all design activities are aimed towards meeting primary needs. Until then, the design must disappear. We can live without architecture…”
Superstudio, 1971
Non-Plan Non-planning provides an assumption for communities to criticize preconditioned urban programs and introduces a new way of human coexistence with nature. This, in turn, attempts to bring human beings back to the possibility of benefiting from the natural environment irrespective of city infrastructure. This is directly rooted in the realm of human existence and social freedom. A layer beyond then tries to criticize this urbanization and totalitarianism. Dismantling planning, ignoring urban structures, and terminating material possession are intimately connected to the natural environment.

For centuries Isfahan city had been an oasis settlement, by dint of its surrounding fertile lands and prosperity. After the 1980s, the demand for water for industrial usage has raised gradually. The creation of large steelworks and other new industries along with the growing population, disable the scarce water resources to be utilized primarily for agriculture and now,Zayandeh River cannot supply all agriculture lands which are placed in along the river anymore, a landscape transformed to a skyscraper for answering the desire of access to the water and a layer of technology added for facilities agriculture with less use of water and energy. The skyscraper is formed by traditional technique which helps to provide high-quality organic fertilizer in the middle of desert Zayandeh River cannot supply all agriculture lands which are placed in along the river anymore, an agricultures landscape transformed to a skyscraper for answering the desire of local farmers in Isfahan who are forced to leave their farms due to the water shortage in Isfahan. The skyscraper is formed by combination of a traditional architectural passive way of living in the middle of desert and a layer of technology to facilities agriculture with scarcity of water. It retains the identity of the context; it is openand sustainable and try to protect threatened subcultural farmers in isfahan. The skyscraper is formed by the combination of a traditional architectural passive way, which facilitates living in the middle of the desert, and a layer of technology that provides agriculture with the minimum usage of water. Horizontal surfaces transformed into vertical surfaces. For solving light issues in a closed vertical environment, the transformation occurred by optimizing geometry according to the result of calculating the incident radiations and the amount of renewable energy that can be collected from photovoltaic or solar thermals.

River Zayandeh River to supply other areas, leaving their farms dry and threatening their livelihoods. The violent crackdown on protests was answered to them by the government in 2021. From another point of view in this historical region, which has extreme weather, architecture ways widely used for finding passive ways to solve relation between humans and nature. These architectural ways are bound with the culture and identity of the local people. Their lifestyle has formed inside different types of shelters to protect them in extreme weather situations.
Devocates Traditional Dovecotes in Isfahan were designed to produce large quantities of organic fertilizer for helping to farm in the middle of the desert and it was part of the traditional way of farming in Isfahan. In the central void of Dovecotes, thousands of holes were placed into the walls continuously for pigeons. The architecture method used in Dovecotes provides a suitable environment situation for pigeons in the middle of the desert in a passive way. The used material was unbaked mud brick plastered with mud. Timber was also rarely used.
