DESIGN NAME: Sama
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Music Pavilion
INSPIRATION: The project is inspired by the costume of a Sama dancer. Sama is an ancient dance that is one of the oldest dances
In Iranian culture, it is mostly formed in group ceremonies and is accompanied by instruments, songs, and dances.
We designed Sama to solve the problems of street musicians and respect the street music inspired by Sama dance.
Problems such as lack of adequate space,
The destructive effects of climate change on instruments and the lack of necessary facilities for electricians.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Sama is a space for performing street music. In terms of material and form, it's designed to increase acoustic quality and proper performance in different weather conditions. with its special form, Sama prevents the focus of sound and causes the integrated play of sound, and provides a suitable space for musicians and listeners of street music.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Sama is connected to a music streaming platform. Artists can connect to this platform by being inside Sama.
Artists can connect to this platform by being inside Sama. This platform has features such as profile creation, sharing, and online distribution of works. Also, listeners can follow their favorite musicians and music by entering this platform.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The design phase of the project began in 2021. The project was designed to build in different places. It is flexible enough to adopt different spots.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Architecture, Building and Structure Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Samas structural system consists of a metal frame filled with eco-brick material.
electrical equipment and the lights are placed on this part and then a layer of micro-cement coating is used as the final inner and outer coating.
The outer layer also consists of solar cells that provide the energy needed for electrical and lighting equipment.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Area:225sqm
Dimensions:15m*15m*6m

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Examining the needs of street musicians and the existence of many problems with the sound quality during the performance, we began to search for a solution to this problem in the field of acoustics.
The parameters involved in acoustics, should be designed according to Sama's performance.
Formal research was started on the dome of Iran's historic mosques, and according to Sama's different acoustic needs, the form was designed with many changes in that form to avoid creating a focal sound.
CHALLENGE: Sama is not an architectural building on a specific land, but a public pavilion that should be able to be built in different places. This was the biggest design challenge. The design team's response to this challenge was Sama's adaptive design. The use of economical and light materials was also helpful in this regard.
