Project idea

Designers perceive architecture as a remarkable realm capable of creating wonders, while simultaneously being influenced by and influencing its surrounding environment. This reciprocal relationship underscores the impact of the learning environment on human cognition. If individuals are educated in unsuitable environments, the negative effects will manifest in their minds, leading to the proliferation of inappropriate designs in the city. Our intention is to establish a center where architects from around the world can convene and fulfill their architectural and artistic missions in the most effective manner. We aspire to transform this center into a hub where every architect and architecture student can meet their needs, whether in terms of architectural information exchange, learning, or workspace requirements. By providing such a conducive environment for architecture students, they will be able to enhance and develop themselves. Through gaining knowledge in the presence of distinguished architects, we anticipate witnessing the success of students in their field of work. Simultaneously, by providing offices and creating employment opportunities for students, we aim to bridge the gap between architectural knowledge and employment in this field.

Project description

A. Utilizing geometry and being inspired by Iranian traditional plans: Geometry is one of the foundations of traditional Iranian art and architecture. Use of geometric order in plan by taking advantage of hidden geometry and making geometric understanding through stagnation, more than any other concept of traditional architecture geometry, has been paid into attention in contemporary architecture. While the use of archetypes and motifs of traditional architecture has always been the interest of contemporary architects, square is one of the types of geometric polygons that has a special application in architecture and has been used in many buildings, which designers themselves have also benefited in their design. Also, with the knowledge of the Iranian gardens as a complete structure that indicates the close relationship between the cultural context and nature, as well as a sign of adaptation and alignment of human needs with the nature, we should utilize the principles of Iranian gardens design as well as other traditional Iranian plans that briefly follow the principles of hierarchy, symmetry, centrality, rhythm, independence, recognition of spaces and the use of straight lines in design.

B. Topography Utilization: The use of the natural slope of the ground in the project is a primary concern for designers. The aim is to integrate the natural environment of the architectural building with its natural platform through minimal interference, allowing each to complement the other. Designers, through their interior and exterior designs, strive to foster interaction between people, architects, and artists, promoting architectural growth and excellence, and strengthening empathy among them. The site has been designed to create collective spaces, enabling people to reconnect with nature and heal the relationship between humans and nature.
