Courtyards hold paramount importance in Iranian architecture, facilitating spatial organization and ventilation in diverse climates. In our project, extensive analysis of precedents reveals the nuanced role of courtyards, from single to triple configurations. Dimensional considerations are pivotal, influencing light penetration and airflow dynamics. By studying various courtyard typologies, we integrate principles of functionality and cultural resonance into our design, ensuring harmonious living environments that honor tradition while meeting contemporary needs

In Iranian architecture, summer and winter rooms serve distinct purposes, reflecting seasonal needs. Courtyards act as pivotal elements, mediating between these spaces while maintaining privacy hierarchy.

Summer rooms, often located on northern sides, offer cool retreats during hot months, while winter rooms, typically situated on the southern side, capture warmth.

Courtyards enhance spatial organization, channeling airflow and light to create comfortable living environments adaptable to seasonal fluctuations.

In a pioneering exploration of sustainable design, our project delves into the innovative application of ferrofluid technology inspired by traditional Iranian architectural elements like “shebak” and “Girih tiles.”

By integrating ferrofluid—blended with a transparent suspension liquid—into windows, we harness its magnetic properties to revolutionize energy management within architectural spaces. Through the interplay of light and temperature sensors, the ferrofluid dynamically responds to environmental cues, regulating internal temperature and light levels with precision.

Ferrofluid screen

Actuators encircle the window, adjusting magnetic intensity based on daily temperature and light. This system regulates light and temperature while infusing spaces with vitality, avoiding monotony. At 0 magnetic intensity, it resembles regular windows, while stronger intensities create unique patterns across the glass. This dynamic range allowvs for adaptable light control and visual aesthetics.

Q

Ever noticed the paradox of feeling disconnected in the hustle of urban life?That’s what our project is all about—unraveling this irony. Can our design harmonize the intimate living spaces residents cherish as their private sanctuaries with the vibrant shared communal areas, all while ensuring the utmost privacy for those who reside within?

Inspired by the “FakhroMadin” pattern and climate factors, we’re on a mission to find answers. Picture eight thoughtfully placed blocks, not just responding to sunlight but challenging the norm by fostering visual fluidity between inside and outside spaces The project meticulously crafts its approach, drawing insights from diverse sustainable practices across various cultures, climates, and contexts. Achieving a balance, 30% of the residential area is designated for occupancy, with an additional 5% allocated to shared spaces. The design encompasses a total of 200 units, each tailored to specific needs:

The project comprises 8 volumes, each spanning 10 levels. Additionally, there is a basement floor dedicated to parking and another basement floor allocated for storage, a pool, a gym, and a meeting room. Two units are situated on each level.

Its strategies draw from sustainable practices originating from diverse cultures, climates, and contexts.

Given the necessity to harmonize with the surrounding texture and context, the concept of Building Radicalization was employed. This approach, characteristic of contextualism, facilitated the project’s coordination with its environment.

Climate Factors

Final Placement

The concept and layout draw inspiration from the “FakhroMadin1” pattern and Climate Factors. Eight superimposed blocks are strategically positioned to optimize solar exposure and views. These blocks respond to two distinct situations within the project: interior views, encompassing common areas, and exterior views of the environment. This design fosters visual fluidity between interior and exterior spaces while ensuring the privacy of the inhabitants.

Each unit is strategically positioned within the whole, resulting in unique configurations that include one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom layouts. The project consists of four blocks, each comprising 20 units spread across 10 levels. These units range from 85m2 to 110m2. Additionally, four blocks containing 20 units each feature embedded 150m2 units, while 20 units of 200m2 are alternately placed between both sets of blocks.

Intro

Location: Syria Rhinoceros

How can architectural interventions contribute to minimizing the impact of sandstorms and concurrently play a role in preventing cultural losses?

Syria faces severe threats of human destruction and loss of cultural heritage due to ongoing armed conflicts combined with environmental issues like sandstorms. This project aims to protect Syrian cities and cultural artifacts in two ways: constructing protective vegetative barriers around urban areas to reduce sandstorm impacts, and repatriating looted cultural artifacts through museum decolonization. The vegetative barriers involve strategically planting concentric rings of vegetation, with inner “suicide rings” of trees expected to take the brunt of storm damage. This multi-layered approach can effectively reduce wind speeds and sand volumes reaching cities.

29

Additionally, many Syrian antiquities have been looted in recent years, scattered in museums globally. To reclaim this cultural heritage, international museums would systematically return Syrian artifacts, allowing new decentralized museums to be built behind the vegetative barriers where artifacts can be securely displayed near their original provenances. Together, these two approaches could mitigate key threats to Syrian heritage, countering wartime destruction and environmental damage with green infrastructure and artitalfact repatriation.

In Syria, ongoing conflicts and sandstorms threaten both human lives and cultural heritage. This project proposes protective vegetative barriers and museum decolonization to mitigate destruction. As the map of Syria depicts, most cities face the risk of cultural destruction. Focused initially on Damascus, where artifacts are highly vulnerable, the initiative strategically plants concentric rings of vegetation, including “suicide rings” of palm trees and earthen berms. Repatriating looted artifacts from global museums further enhances cultural preservation. The approach aims to counteract wartime devastation and environmental threats, fostering resilience and heritage preservation.

Introducing a multifunctional facade designed to address key challenges faced by the building, particularly in harsh environments like sandstorms. This innovative design serves to enhance air circulation, block sand intrusion, and regulate light while maintaining efficient filtration processes. Utilizing perforations, the facade creates turbulence to slow down air velocity, effectively mitigating the risk of sand particle penetration and optimizing filtration efficiency, ensuring a resilient and functional building envelope.
