of rice cultivation is called “Shali-Kari” in Persian. And “Shali-Kar” is the one who works in the paddy fields. The life of Shali-Kar depends on the ground; while it always has a step in the water and another on the land. They farm in the water and build the foundations of their houses on the same lands. Indeed, their lives are as floating as a sponge on the water; it soaks up water.
The “North” in Iranian culture doesn’t refer only to a geographical direction, but it’s a term that indicates an aspect of Iranian collective memory. It signifies a specific location which the sea, mountain and plain meet each other. The lifestyle of northern Iran inhabitants used to be defined as an extroverted living. The distance between their habitats was dependent on their land extent. Furthermore, the humid climate played an important role in shaping their vernacular architecture which “Ivan” was the fundamental part of the house.
The Shali-Kar Villa Seeks to Link the social life of its inhabitants to the traditional architecture of northern Iran. It introduces a section and replies to the inner aspect of vernacular geography. An alley is also designed within the house which integrates all the interior and exterior spaces. The alley meets a courtyard at the centre of the building. The flow of the spaces from the landscape into the building combines the essence of living in the north with the dynamic contemporary lifestyle.

owns a section of the nature. This project is located in “Ab-Pari”; a place surrounded by mist. Therefore, it gives an Ambiguous sense of the steep slope to the user. The villa begins with crossing over a bridge and then gets connected to the living space and at last, by framing the nature, becomes a joint which connects the house in three horizons.

Thevilla is situated on land measuring 980 sqm in the Amir-Dasht residential complex. The main request of the client was for a villa design that harmonizes with the tranquil environment of the complex and also establishes a direct connection with the green space of the property.
The architectural strategy of the project involves creating spatial independence for all the elements involved, such as the living area, bedrooms, kitchen, etc., and then distributing them throughout the site in a way that creates intermediary spaces. This allows the green area to penetrate among the mentioned masses, establishing a direct relationship between all interior and exterior spaces.
Each mass of the project has its own character and independent identity, and the spatial interactions between them create unique sequences within the project’s interior spaces.

TheNastaran-6 project is an 8-story apartment building located in the city of Mashhad,organized based on a structure of nine squares. In this project, the main focus is on the corners and presenting the ninth square as a unique form, which, while being connected to the other squares, also possesses its own independent identity. The ninth square at the base has a complete connection with the ensemble, and as it moves upward, it showcases its distinct identity.

TheNastaran-5 residential project is located in the Sajjad area, adjacent to the Malekabad Garden in Mashhad. The site of the project is situated on the southern side of Nastaran-5 Street, bordered by its eastern and western parcels. The northern facade overlooks a residential area, while the southern facade faces the Malekabad Garden. Given the square plan and the characteristics of the different floors, it became possible for the architectural structure of the project to be based on a combination of a 4-part square and a 9-part square. Therefore, the spatial organization of the basement and ground floors was developed based on the 4-part square, while the organization of the residential floors was shaped according to the 9-part square. The overall structure of the project is the result of combining and transforming these two systems.
The Shamshak project is located along the Tehran-Shamshak road and is situated on the side of a valley. The land has a funnel-shaped form, with the base towards the road and the apex pointing towards the valley. According to local regulations, only two floors can be constructed above the road level, while any additional residential floors must be situated at lower levels. The spatial organization of the main mass of the design was shaped into a U form, according to the land and maximizing the view of the Shamshak valley. To avoid locating parking areas to the lowest levels, an empty space was designated at levels -1 and -2. Given that the usage of the complex is often sporadic throughout most of the year, the possibility was created for parking to serve as a public terrace overlooking the beautiful Shamshak valley for residents. Therefore, the main diagram of the project includes a void within the complex that serves a dual function.

Apartment Complex project is located on a 1400 sqm land in the Vanak area of Tehran, specifically on Brazil Street. This project consists of 4 basement levels, one lobby and common space level, and 8 residential floors above that. The footprint of the masses above ground occupies 50% of the site, and given the dimensions of the site, there is an opportunity to design the project in a free-form manner.
The architectural strategy of this project involves extracting the central core from the building mass and connecting it to the outer shell. This design results in the creation of a semi-transparent spatial envelope that encompasses the mass of the project. The main volumes of the project also provide sufficient space for lateral movements and changes in sight angles, and they are designed to appear as if they are floating outward from the designed spatial envelope.
The layer between the shell and the residential core is dedicated to semi-open spaces such as terraces and rooftop gardens.

TheSolaris project site is located in the Mahmoudabad area, adjacent to the sea. The land for the project is elongated in a rectangular shape, perpendicular to the coastline. The form of the land limits the direct sea view to a minimum. To the east, there is a mixed-use residential and commercial development featuring two towers of 24 and 14 stories, which restricts the eastern view. The other directions are open and offer suitable views.
The project plan was to design a high-rise residential complex with unique quality and complete recreational and service facilities, envisioned as a vertical city that is self-sufficient.
The architectural concept of the project involved creating a main spine along the eastern side (which lacks a view) and connecting the project’s volumes to it. Four residential towers and one horizontal volume dedicated to communal and service spaces are connected to this spine and appear to float in space.
The residential towers consist of two-unit and single-unit sections, with each having a unique villa at its top level. The mass designated for common spaces is also separated from the ground, freeing up the ground level from the entrance to the beach. The empty space is designed as a garden in the middle, serving as a focal point of the project and a gathering place for residents to utilize the amenities and enjoy the surrounding views.

Theresidential towers of Oasis are located on a land area of 8,000 square meters in western Tehran. The project consists of 22 residential floors, primarily featuring small units (90-150 square meters), along with 4 basement levels, three of which are designated for parking and one for public spaces. The ground floor accommodates the entrance lobby and other public areas. The elongation of the land is oriented in a north-south direction, resulting in the larger sides of the plot facing west and east. Meanwhile, considering the climate of Tehran, optimal sunlight is available from the north and south.
Given that 80% of the land area in this project is allocated to the basements, almost the entire site required excavation. Consequently, this project was envisioned as a pit , which the buildings would be placed, necessitating a bridge for access to the project.
Another architectural strategy of the project involves two parallel towers, with their larger sides facing north and south. To create privacy they are positioned as far as possible from each other and connected at the lower levels, forming a U-shaped configuration. To ensure that the two towers do not obstruct each other’s views and to provide each unit with a broad perspective and adequate light, the towers were rotated as much as the plot allowed. Subsequently, based on the organization of the units, each tower was divided into four sections, granting the units greater independence and dynamic identity.
The architectural project for the Afra and Firoozeh office buildings operates on three different levels adjacent to the northern and western sites of the Bank Tejarat Tower.
1. Urban Design: Given the unique location of the Bank Tejarat Tower next to Taleghani and Najatollahi Streets, as well as the rich domain of early modern and late modern architecture in the area, the urban design strategy aimed to position the project site as a new pause point in the chain of influential areas nearby, such as the Honarmandan Park and Daneshjoo Park.
2. Architecture: The main idea of the project was to determine how to position the masses within the site in a way that preserves sight corridors from Taleghani and Najatollahi Streets, ensuring that the new architectural structure does not compete with the Bank Tejarat Tower but rather functions as a complementary ensemble.
3. Interior Architecture: The third thought focused on how to transform the homogeneous structure of today’s office space by superimposing another phenomenon, thereby introducing new horizons within contemporary workspaces. To achieve this, a series of horizontal and vertical tunnels were integrated into the rigid structure of the office masses, creating unpredictable spaces with various facilities within the work environments.

Commercial-Office Tower is located at the intersection of Mirdamad Boulevard and Noor Street, on a plot of land measuring 2,700 square meters, near the Eskan towers. It consists of 12 underground floors, 2 commercial floors, and 25 office floors above the ground floor.
The architectural strategy of the project is based on the division of 9 squares, with the stairwell and elevator core positioned as the main core in the central square. The two squares in the southeast and northwest corners are removed from the lower half of the mass to create the project’s entrances, while in the upper half of the mass, the two squares in the southwest and northeast corners are removed. The final mass of the project results from transforming the lower half section into the upper half section, creating a dynamic form with diverse yet simple floor plans.
TheRazan office building project is located at the southwest corner of an urban intersection in the Mirdamad area of Tehran. The building serves as the headquarters for a trading company and consists of various administrative, financial, and managerial sections. The architectural strategy of the project results from the combination of two spatial structures: the first is an archway, and the second is an amorphous material that is nestled within it, covering parts of the outer shell.
Considering the project’s location at the intersection of two adjacent streets, a diagonal pathway was designed within the project, creating a new relationship between the aforementioned streets and the architecture, thus generating a unique space.

The Ehsan administrative-commercial building belongs to the Ehsan Company and is located on a 1600 square meter plot in northern Tehran. The building consists of a large clothing store on the ground floor and 10 office floors above it, along with 7 levels of parking in the basement. Given the conditions of the land, there was the possibility of natural lighting from the north and south, and to create opportunities for light and to have a facade from the east and west, we set back 4 meters from each side. The architectural strategy of the project is based on two inverted U-shaped shells that are rotated 90 degrees relative to each other, encompassing both commercial and office spaces, the management and a large terrace situated between these two shells. One of the shells forms the roof and walls of the project, while the second shell creates the facade. When it meets the ground, it folds like a curtain, and with the setback of the commercial box in this area, it accommodates a semi-open entrance space, creating a new interaction with the city.

modern Ophthalmology Hospital project is located at the beginning of Esfandiar Boulevard, adjacent to the current ophthalmology hospital. The project site consists of two fields, northern and southern, and excavation a part of the structure based on a different design have already been completed. We were asked to present an innovative architectural project for this very important hospital based on the existing conditions and considering the addition of another field (the hospital’s administrative building) to the current site.
By studying the project program and the operational methods of this hospital, two main flows of visitors were identified: one group consists of patients coming for eye examinations, while the other group includes those who have previously been examined and are returning for surgery based on a prior appointment.
The architectural strategy of the project involves separating these two sections and their subcategories into two main masses. One mass contains the clinic spaces on the lower level, while the other includes operating rooms, inpatient areas, and administrative and management spaces on the upper level. In the space between these two volumes, there is an admission area and a waiting space for patients undergoing surgery, which includes lounge areas and the main terrace of the complex. This terrace is designed to be at the same level as the roof of the existing hospital, allowing for continuity and creating a larger public open space in the central section.
The two main masses are positioned in an L-shape on top of each other. The lower mass introduces the entrance to the complex through a cut in its façade, while the diagonal transformation of the upper volume expands the northern view towards the intersection of Vali-Asr and Esfandiar streets, providing a broader perspective of the hospital.
