The Glass House is for the whole town. A symbol of rejuvenation and the new-found self-esteem of glass-making in the country. The most excellent factory of making glass in Iran held a competition for headquarter in the capital. A sustainable approach to have natural air ventilation and providing daylight for offce hours. For avoiding the sunset light for the main facade in the west, make alternative shades to change during the day to evening. The Diamond shape inspires by Iranian architecture. The luxurious touch of the lobby made it more of a metaphor for darkness and light.

Facade of Fashion House

An Eco-village was a place for those who desire to live in a city’s cultural atmosphere with less exposure to traffic or air pollution. The limitation was each student had to design a cubic form with local materials. The project was located in the countryside, based on sustainable architecture, social, and power saving. My task was to improve the community’s creativity and production of fabrics and clothes. The fashion house has a natural-based approach, a place for visitors to the village as a financial resource. A place to create, socialize, and educate children in different ranges from fabricating to tailor clothes.

Using light, thin fabric for facades protects from rain and wind and provides sunlight to the complex. Moreover, locating the classrooms under the ground creates the opportunity of using soil’s thermal performance.

Main Entrance of Sand Wave Community Center

The community center is based in the Kashan desert to accommodate people for gathering and social events. The site-specific center was inspired by how wind shapes the desert’s sand. The project combined protrusive organic formations, linear embellishments, and futuristic sensibilities. The grand scale of achievement is how this place could be a place for minorities to gather, hence a better chance of equal opportunity and social injustice. The architecture is conceived as landscape--the landscape becomes architecture, and the building takes on the surrounding countryside wave. The desire to be one with nature and connection with the landscape also felt from within the building. The main salon has a generous glass facade, both in size and sophisticated details— the outside’s visual contraction.

Main Entrance of Light Museum

Zoroaster said: love like the Sun; even if you want not to give someone love, you cannot. The light museum used different lighting systems to create a recreational place for various audiences: children and adults. To achieve both amusement and education, the museum allowed exploring light, shadow, and refection between them--like reflecting light throughout the water in a dark room, reminds the goddess of water, Anahita. The most significant recourses of life, the Sun, called Mehr—love, in ancient Iran, provides an extraordinary experience for who comes to the light museum. Learning and playing in different rooms of this place brings about another type of experiment using audience contribution.

Future Cities 2050

Studio Project, Instructors: Farhad Ahmadi, Shahid Beheshti University,Spring 2015.

Floating city in the ocean

The final master Studio was based on the premise that ideas, techniques, and formal provocations. In the studio, contemporary issues of critical importance provided alternative architectural discourse contexts, explored and produced. Living in the Anthropocene era and rising sea level makes it more evident that we will soon experience another urban type. The expansion of the population on earth triggers the land shortage also, lacking natural resources. The need for alternative energy sources and enhancing personal spaces plus a global village requires a place where everyone has privacy while a community brings such cluster cities. Nature: In the shape of green surfaces between frames and different latitudes. Energy: This provides two ways: as mentioned before, there are three energy cycles in the central core. Residential: consist of a set of cells in which each section will define a space for human living uniformly cover all the collection.

Growth of Floating city in the ocean

Diagram of Floating City

Use of alternative resources : The creation of alternative energies was the topic that has been considered in two parts. This complex’s primary structural definition is the central absorbent core of the sea’s power: Wave energy, Tide. Each cell’s body is an adsorbent of solar energy, making the cell like a closed cycle of life. We might need an auxiliary structure to keep the mass’s stability and confront ocean waves like a plate works the same as a mussel-type structure to justify the floating potential. Byssal or byssus threads are solid and silky fibers made from proteins used by mussels and other bivalves to attach to rocks, pilings, or other substrates. These animals produce their byssal threads using a byssus gland located within the organism’s foot. A group of these mussels, strong filaments, are secreted by some clams’ families to attach themselves to hard surfaces. Mollusks can move slowly by extending a byssal thread, using it as an anchor, and then shortening it.
