DESIGN NAME: 16 The Moment
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Residential
INSPIRATION: The design drew inspiration from the prevalent pattern of residential apartments of endemic modernism of Tehran in the fifties and sixties, known as the "Khorjini" design in Mashhad-Iran, and considered it as the framework of the project.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This project evolved into an apartment republic, aligning with the diverse initial client preferences. It involved designing a 300-square-meter residential unit for parents, four 150-square-meter units for children, and a potential surplus in the construction license for a 510-square-meter land. Ensuring the proper separation of two-unit floors and reconstructing a common front space for the elevator without harming individual floors posed notable design challenges.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Due to the presence of numerous level differences in this project, various types of floor plans have emerged, providing the opportunity for family members and four children to have good communication and interaction with each other despite being independent.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in 2018 and finished in 2020 in Mashhad,Iran.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Architecture, Building and Structure Design
|
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: This project, like most projects in Iran, has been developed with a traditional approach, and industrialization and prefabrication plays no role in it.
Objects such as bench and fireplace were also specifically designed and fabricated for this project by the design team.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Site area: 510 sqm
Gross built area: 2650 sqm
