I am a graduate of Architectural Engineering from the School of Architecture, Urban Planning, and Urban Design at Urmia University. My path toward architecture began even before my formal education, as I had the opportunity to participate in several projects alongside my father. These early experiences ignited a deep passion for the field and guided my decision to pursue it academically. Throughout my university years, I explored the vast realm of architecture, advanced in various professional roles, worked with different materials, and mastered intricate construction techniques through diverse projects. This journey has fueled a strong desire in me to pursue higher education to further refine my skills and achieve global recognition in the epicenter of architectural innovation.

In my free time, I enjoy exploring new cultures and architectural styles through travel, which broadens my design perspective. Photography, especially capturing architectural details and urban landscapes, serves as a creative outlet that inspires and enhances my design ideas. Additionally, sketching and drawing provide me with the freedom to express architectural concepts in a unique and original way.

The revitalization project of the old bazaar adjacent to the historical Grand Bazaar of Urmia and the Jameh Mosque of Urmia, named «New Urmia Bazaar,» was carried out as a group project under my management. Before my involvement, the building faced climatic and historical architectural challenges. In the redesign process, the main building, inspired by the region›s traditional houses, was relocated to the northern side of the site to preserve the view of the mosque. Additionally, a building with a balcony and a restaurant was designed on the southern side, offering a pleasant view of the bazaar and mosque, creating an attractive environment for both locals and tourists.`
The other sections of the site, similar to the demolished old building, were transformed into low-height booths using local materials, breathing new life into the abandoned property. The primary goal of the project was to restore vitality and change the culture of this part of the bazaar, which was achieved by creating spaces for the city›s traditional trades and establishing galleries to display old photos of the city. The issue of the lack of an administrative building for the bazaar was also resolved in the new main building. All architectural elements, including arches, lattice walls, and brickwork, were inspired by the traditional architecture of northwestern Iran.

An opening has been created in the market wall to provide a view of the mosque. These openings not only create a spatial and visual connection between the market and the mosque but also enhance the historical presence and identity of the mosque within the market environment, fostering a dynamic and inviting atmosphere.
Due to the favorable view of the open courtyard, placing the commercial section at the entrance enhances the inviting nature, encouraging people to enter the complex.

Cesar Pelli
The high-rise building project on one of Urmia’s main streets was a complex and challenging endeavor. Its proximity to the city’s largest mall and a densely populated residential complex caused issues with high traffic and congestion, further complicated by narrow streets and infrastructural limitations.
A key challenge was integrating the building into the urban landscape, ensuring that its height complemented the surrounding area, including the river and city skyline. The design had to be both functional and visually harmonious, transforming the building into a landmark.
The project also required careful separation of its commercial, office, and residential spaces to ensure independent access, privacy, and comfort. Parking and circulation were critical, as the high volume of visitors demanded efficient solutions. Ensuring privacy for residents near the commercial and office areas was another priority.
Ultimately, the project aimed to balance technical demands, quality of life, and aesthetic considerations while addressing the many challenges of its location and functions.

Designed within the forest and by the sea, the project is intended to create a sense of calm and tranquility for its users.
Architecture is the play of light, space, and materials, placing the human being within it.
Le Corbusier
In this project, we designed a villa in the heart of the forest, aiming to create a space in harmony with the surrounding pristine nature. One of the main goals was to provide a sense of tranquility, privacy, and a unique experience of living amidst nature. To achieve this, we introduced breaks in the floor plan that distinguish each area while maintaining a connection between them. These breaks were carefully designed to create privacy while allowing for a smooth flow between different spaces within the villa.
The villa’s high ceiling was designed to create an open and spacious interior, enhancing the sense of openness and freedom. This height allows residents to feel a closer connection with the surrounding views, deepening the integration of the interior space with the natural environment.
One of the standout features of the villa is the floor-to-ceiling windows that extend from the floor to the ceiling. These windows allow abundant natural light to flood the interior, brightening the space and creating a warm atmosphere. The light entering through these windows shifts throughout the day, casting beautiful shadows from the surrounding trees and creating a poetic, calming ambiance. Additionally, the large windows offer unparalleled views of the forest and nature, making residents feel as if they are truly living within the heart of the forest.

Integration of Nature and Privacy in the Design of High-Occupancy Building.
Architecture should be such that it incorporates nature within itself, not separate from it.
Thomas Heatherwick
In this project, we designed a unique office space that carefully addressed the specific ideas and requests of the client. One of the key requirements was to create a sense of spatial privacy within the interior, along with the inclusion of a cypress tree in the facade as a symbol of stability and Iranian heritage. To fulfill this, we proposed the idea of creating a beautiful atrium on the southern side of the building. This atrium not only provided a dedicated space for the cypress tree but also cleverly filtered natural light into the interior, creating a harmonious balance of light and shadow.
In designing this facade, we aimed to create a distinctive identity for the building, inspired by the forms of traditional Iranian arches. These arches, symbols of strength, balance, and beauty in Iranian architecture, were reimagined in a modern style to blend tradition with modernity. The facade’s shell features repeating arches arranged in a rhythmic pattern, creating visual interest and depth through dynamic light and shadow throughout the day. This semi-transparent shell filters natural light into the interior, illuminating spaces while maintaining a sense of privacy.
