The project is located at the western entrance of Shiraz, with the building's extension running along the main boulevard. Our primary concern was how pedestrians on the lower level and riders on the upper level would engage with the building's design.

This reduces visual clutter, fostering a seamless connection of the commercial section with the surrounding urban space. On the upper floors, taking into account the viewpoint and the movement of riders, a design langua... Más

The project was designed and constructed on Qasr o Dasht Street in Shiraz, Iran. This street is known as a green and pleasant neighborhood due to its proximity to Qasr al-Dasht gardens.
