Inbar Café

Redefining the Interior–Exterior Relationship in an Urban Context The primary intention of the “Inbar Café” project is to reinterpret the connection between the interior bar space and the adjacent pedestrian street. In this approach, architecture is not treated as a static shell but as an active interface that facilitates a contemporary urban experience. SaJjad Rahimi Transformation of the Existing Classical Façade The existing building originally featured a classical Roman-inspired stone façade that was inconsistent with the project’s architectural direction. During the design process, this ornamental layer was removed and replaced with a unified, light, and translucent surface. This tra... More

Noura Eyewear

IntroductionThe interior design of Noura Eyewear and Optometry Center was carried out on one of Rasht’s busy healthcare-oriented streets, with the aim of creating a welcoming, legible, and functional environment. The narrow plot, with a width of only 3.5 meters and length of 17 meters (70 sqm ground floor), along with a 35 sqm upper floor for support spaces, posed a significant design challenge. The project’s location—surrounded by clinics, medical offices, and similar stores—necessitated a distinctive identity and an enhanced user experience. Pelak Studio Legibility, Identity, and Urban PresenceTo achieve visual distinction in a competitive urban context, the façade and entrance were designed with stron... More

Green Pharmacy

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.

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.

MAINA Design Site Analysis and PlacementThe site is located on a gentle slope in a mountainous area. The first design step was to study solar radiation throughout the year and determine the optimal building orientation. As a result, the main volume was positioned to capture maximum solar energy during the cold seasons.... More

Boof

This project is an example of the reinvention of a shoe and handbag store located on one of the busiest streets in the city—a location that, due to high visual density, required the creation of a calm, inviting, and identity-driven environment. The client, owner of the “Boof” brand, aimed to provide a pleasant shopping experience for customers while presenting a distinctive and attractive storefront. The starting point of the design was the brand’s owl symbol—a motif that, through conceptual interpretation and translation into form and lighting, became the foundation for a fluid and cohesive store interior. MAINA Design MAINA Design Brand-Inspired Design and the Role of the CeilingThe store is slight... More

Tendenza

Name Philosophy The word Tendenza in Italian means tendency, trend, or a new movement. This name was chosen to emphasize that the store is not merely a place of commerce, but a platform for presenting new currents in fashion and lifestyle for women. The identity of the project is tightly connected to this meaning—conveying a sense of movement, modernity, and individuality through spatial design. Nimik Studio Conceptual Idea Tendenza was conceived as more than a retail space—it was envisioned as a place where shopping transforms into a sensory and meaningful experience. The design revolves around the subtle duality of energy and calmness: A vibrant, dynamic, and eye-catching entry to attract passersby.A softer, more inti... More

This strategy is derived from the Moroccan culture because in Morocco the privacy of people is small and people can easily get in touch and become friends Hasan Farahani Hasan Farahan... More
