Bagh-E-Mehr Residential Building

 

Preserving The Site’s Existing Trees And in-keeping with the scale of the neighborhood were the main concerns of our design. Convincing the municipality to give permission to divide the project to two separate blocks, in addition to provide more privacy for each unit, gave a better quality to natural light and ventilation of each apartment. This was still less than the permitted built area, the protruded volumes rotated toward pleasant surrounding views helped us fulfill our limits. The two connecting bridges in the 2nd and 5th floors provide secondary access to elevator and stair case in case of emergency.
The vertical use of wood and brick was to emphasize the verticality of the surrounding trees.

“Furniture Showroom and Warehouse, 2005”, one of the most famous projects of the studio won the first prize of “Memar architecture national award” and has been published in different national books and magazines. Also it has been published in “The PHAIDON Atlas of 21st Century of World Architecture “. “VillaShahr Residential Complex” is another project of the studio which has been shortlisted in “World Architecture Festival, Barcelona 2009”.

In recent years, the approach towards city and its correlation with architecture has been one of the dominant concerns of design process in the studio. Studying the relation between filled and void spaces not only in the context of the architectural form, but also in relation with the buildings threshold with the city, is another leading concerns of the studio in latest projects.
