A Small Pharmacy in the Heart of a Busy Street in Rasht This project involved the design and execution of a 30-square-meter pharmacy, in a space previously used as an eyewear shop, where the existing spatial divisions were not compatible with the new requirements. The limited ceiling height and strict regulations of the Food and Drug Administration posed some of the main design challenges. Pelak Studio Pelak Studio The pharmacy is located on one of the busiest streets of Rasht, lined with doctors’ offices, medical clinics, and numerous pharmacies. Within this context—where visual clutter threatens the identity of small buildings—the central design question emerged: how can one establish a clear and distinctive... More

Dehsar Villa is located in the rural context of the Astaneh–Kiashahr axis on a 279 m² plot with a limited frontage of 9 m. This constraint was treated from the outset as a generative diagram rather than a mere limitation. The conceptual idea draws on the archetypal image of “home” — the gabled roof familiar from children’s drawings as a universal sign of dwelling. In this project, the house is not a cliché form but a text for re-reading the meaning of living in today’s context. Method Office The spatial organisation is based on a clear public/private duality: ·         Front section: a one-and-a-half storey commercial/office space opening to the road and loca... More

The primary goal of this project was to create a modern, inspiring, and highly functional office space—a workplace that not only responds to operational needs but also enhances the psychological well-being and daily experience of its users. Azadeh Azizi The design emphasizes natural light as a core architectural element. Daylight flows through floor-to-ceiling glazing, reflective surfaces, and transparent partitions, ensuring a continuous presence throughout the space. This approach minimizes dependency on artificial lighting while significantly enhancing visual comfort, focus, and mood. Azadeh Azizi High-performance materials, an intelligent ventilation system, and an open, breathable spatial layout were carefully integra... More

Silent Glow is an interior design project for a beauty clinic, conceived with a distinct approach that departs from the conventional atmosphere of medical spaces. The main objective was to create a modern and minimal environment that, beyond its professional functionality, conveys a sense of calmness, humanity, and distance from the sterile, anxiety-inducing clichés of healthcare facilities. Azadeh Azizi Azadeh Azizi Given the conversion of the space from an office to a beauty clinic, the design and execution process involved extensive interventions—from demolition of existing partitions and a complete reconfiguration of mechanical and electrical systems to detailed finishing work and custom furniture design.

The intensity of megacity urbanity, where air pollution and environmental degradation are pre-conditions for design, presents a particular challenge for the creation of secure environments for education. Conceptualized as a “cocoon”, this project for a pre-school and kindergarten – aspires to be a luminous safe haven for young children, as they engage with early years learning.  Organised as a set of organic ‘cells’ of curved brick walls punctuated by circular porthole windows, the learning spaces weave a tactile ring around a courtyard.  Lined with slats of birch plywood – a soft counterpoint to the brick, the courtyard assumes primacy as the focal space within - draped in a tent and illuminate...

The project by Búhoblanco Arquitectos is located in a residential neighbourhood where the architecture is traditional. Two superimposed volumes dynamise the façade of the Casa Mirador, with the upper volume attracting the eye. The opposite occurs on the rear façade, where it is the ground floor volume that advances, generating the terrace space and spatially opening up the courtyard. Caption The ground floor, open and diaphanous, expands to the terrace, where the studio decided to include in this special project, our Woods Arctic porcelain stoneware, a ceramic that imitates light and arctic wood, enhancing the neutral colours and thus achieving a timeless space.

Our “Summers Friend House” is one of the solutions for the issue, that showing architectural strategies for a compact house, in a narrow west facing site. Andreaswi... More

The client required a 3-bedroom home with a small theatre room and a puja room. The approach was to convert a 4bhk into 3bhk and designing the guest room as a small theatre room making the apartment look spacious and reviving. The brief was simplified with a preference for modern and clean-lined aesthetics. Inclined studio One is greeted by a geometric-decorative panelling that enlivens the vestibule and shields the overall view of the house. A mirrored grid wall with wooden panelling acts as a backdrop to the console unit. Inclined studio Entering the house, one can see the balancing act of shades of grey with solid wood making the apartment look more appealing and live. The vestibule leads to the living area, which is divided... More
