Is it possible to unify the urban scenery by minimizing the formic expression of buildings as singular objects and emphasizing on the city as a whole? Unitizing different elements of the building including walls, windows, doors, etc., as well as reducing the variety of building materials could somehow address the so called issues. The project was designed as the headquarters for Kohan Ceram Brick Manufacturing Company.

A series of separate gardens and terraces make this design a meditative getaway in this northern Iranian valley. The plot itself is wide at the meeting of the street, and bottlenecks as it moves away. In this way, the longer street-side wall adequately protects the privacy of the perpendicularly linear plot. Likewise, the levels of the villa and gardens themselves can be vertically focused as the land stretches further from the street on its north-south axis. The overall aim was to fully integrate all the elements of a traditional Persian house from Iwan to various forms of gardens, such as Baghcheh and sunken garden.

This school has been designed for the Noor-e-mobin charity organization that is a NGO (non-governmental organization).This is a charity institute that has managed to provide the students with a different educational atmosphere based on the latest methods in the world at no charge. When we think of education, the classical form of schools and educational system comes into mind. Most of the people believe that a serious learning only takes place at that classical system.

The A.S.P. residential complex, (Kooy-e Nobonyad-e Vanak), was built in the early 1970’s and is made of three 23-floor residential towers. This complex houses 250 apartment units inside the towers and 120 villa-apartment, shaped in a staircase format, on the towers’ slopes and skirts. The board of directors of the complex has set strict policies for the reconstruction of the units. In addition, the existence of multiple shear walls, which are only 4 meters apart, makes new planning very difficult.

Every project in architecture faces challenges that achieving the answer will create a specific scenario for that building. One of the features of this project’s site is its small width, which made limitations in interior (plan) and exterior (facade) design. Meanwhile, its two corners allow better lighting for the building. The project is located in Amirabad neighborhood of Tehran; the entrance is from the southern and western sides.
