The philosophy behind the architectural design of the project reflects a harmonious duet, an interplay between two contrasting yet complementary elements. The concept of a duet is integrated throughout the design to symbolize unity, balance, and the beauty that arises from the coalescence of seemingly contrasting elements. Things Studio Things Studio Nature, our primary inspiration, has been gracefully blended with the structural components of the project. Each floor offers a different perspective of the natural landscape, representing the multifaceted nature of a duet, where every floor brings forth a unique aspect of the composition. The design of the structure on each floor is thoughtfully crafted to achieve a sense of complet... More

The trade center of the construction industry draws inspiration from the Bazars of Iran in its design concept. Each floor is designed to incorporate a corridor lined with commercial units on both sides. The corridors are meticulously crafted to allow an abundance of natural light, creating an inviting and enjoyable movement space. Additionally, there are exits at both ends of the building volume, offering an attractive view and enhancing the overall circulation within the building. Furthermore, the incorporation of green and open spaces between the building volume and the corridors results in a seamlessly integrated and uniform circulation space.

We are an architect couple. In a large, crowded city like Tehran, our work involves designing and supervising building projects; a pleasant yet full-time and demanding job. We always wanted to build a space for ourselves to spend our weekends away from the busyness of work and thoughts, or to rest a bit there after delivering each project. A place to refresh our minds and bodies, and a space for loving and living together. A place different from our studio or even our apartment, but as simple and logical as ourselves and our architecture. A familiar, intimate, comfortable, white space. Arash Ashornia "At Golestaneh," a poem by our beloved contemporary poet, Sohrab Sepehri, describes the feeling of this space in our minds well, and it... More

Not long ago, there were gated dead ends (Sibe), surrounded by houses that accommodated relatives. Not long ago, there were enclosed courtyards, surrounded by rooms, housing a family. These Sibe (semi-public urban spaces) and courtyards (semi-private spaces) used to gift us the "sky" as soon as we stepped out of the house. Today, however, these families, households, or individuals live in different parts of the city, country, or even the world. Where? In apartments. Apartments, that upon stepping out of them, only reveal a closed space and a depressing environment. Apartments with low ceilings and an elevator. So where is the shared sky that belongs to us all... The mysterious blue umbrella... In the "Paakat" project, we presented the "sky"... More

The subject was the design of the facade and a part of the lobby space for the Hajj o Ziarat building located in Kashan City. In the middle of the construction process, this request was raised by the client, and this limited and challenged the design work. An effort was made to consider a pure cubic form for the building and also to emphasize the regularity of the building form by considering the well-organized cubic columns around the building, especially in the entrance part. In the entrance section, two rows of columns were designed to distinguish the entrance axis in that wall from other walls. Caption Caption Cylinders with different lengths and different distances were considered randomly at the height and above the entranc... More

The project focused on designing a model facade for Refah Kargaran Bank branches that can be used across different parts of the city, despite the varying scales and sizes of the branches. The initial design idea revolved around a frame that covers the entire facade of the bank. The frames are structured to be stepped, forming three continuous surfaces that can be moved wherever required to accommodate the entrance and ATM spaces, regardless of their location on the facade. If the entrance and ATM are too close to each other, they can collide to minimize shell crowding in one section. The entrance space and ATM are designed to invite passers-by to a larger space, highlighting the change in the hierarchy of the surfaces. Caption Capti... More

The former entrance gate of Moayeri Hospital was in a state of disarray and lacked any identity or definition. There were two main challenges in the design of the main entrance, firstly, the angle of the hospital building compared to the main road and secondly, the presence of an emergency ramp next to the hospital entrance. Caption Caption Caption Caption According to the above conditions, the entrance gate was designed in the form of two overlapping frames, so that a large frame includes the entrance and the ramp and acts as one element from a distance, and the smaller frame serves as the entrance for people and ambulances. The north and south sides of the entrance gate were also designed parallel to the site and the... More

The Sarafraz building in Beheshti neighborhood of Tehran, located on Sarafraz street, is designed on five floors, with two office units on each floor, around a large central void in such a way that, in addition to simultaneous light from the south and north sides of the building, have the possibility of providing more light absorption level through this void.Office units were designed in two different forms for offices with diverse spaces and functions.

In the facade of the building, rectangular cubic volumes of d... More

Shahneshin Villa was designed in the Shahneshin area of Kalardasht.

The mosque's prominent location in the southeastern part of the site, coupled with the presence of a vast east-west axis extending approximately one kilometer, creates an exceptionally broad and desirable panoramic view. The preservation of this wide vista has been considered concerning the height of the human line of sight.
