About me As a graduate architecture student, I’m deeply aware of the pressing global issue of climate change and the construction industry’s substantial 39% contribution to greenhouse gas emissions. This includes not only material production but also the construction phase.

Sustainable architecture is my passion and mission, where I combine my interests in graphics, sketching, painting, and philosophy. It harmonizes environmental consciousness, aesthetics, and functionality. I’m committed to crafting energy-efficient, visually striking buildings through research, innovation, and collaboration. My goal is to reduce emissions and create eco-friendly, beautiful spaces that benefit both people and the planet.

I believe that sustainable architecture is key to mitigating climate change and envisioning a greener future. With dedication and a sense of responsibility, I aim to be a force for positive change in the built environment.

Hospitality Boutique Hotel 2021

Final architecture design

Prof: Amir Bahramei Panah

Final score: 19 Hotels represent more than a billion square feet of space, million guest rooms, and so much in annual energy use. Hotels and other hospitality venues have a significant opportunity to reduce negative environmental impacts associated with guest rooms, event space, and general facility use through energy and water efficiency, waste reduction and management, sustainable and local purchasing, and alternative transportation. Hotels can also contribute to human health by providing healthy, comfortable, and productive indoor environments with improved indoor air quality, access to daylight and views, and occupant control of the lighting and thermal environment. The suite of LEED rating systems includes a range of environmental and performance measures that can be implemented in hotels and other lodging facilities.

Therefore, this design tried to reach a new idea in designing a boutique hotel by using LEED standards and climate knowledge, as well as playing with form and volume.

Shemshak, Tehran, Iran Keywords of Design Environment, Sustainable, Energy, LEED

Main model

Study of LEED

Site plan

LEED is a voluntary, third-party green building certification program that awards points to buildings for satisfying specified green building criteria. LEED-certified buildings have implemented strategies to reduce building operating costs, environmental footprint, and resource consumption, such as water and energy use. LEED projects are designed, built, and operated to cut CO2 emissions while encouraging strategies to help create healthier indoor environmental quality. The evolution of LEED for design and construction has been considered in designing the Boutique Hotel. Thus it began with the study of LEED and the rules of sustainable architecture. Among many items mentioned in the LEED standards, the following were considered the primary approach to designing this boutique hotel.

Shemshak in Darbandsar is one of the cities of Rudbar Qasran, Shemiranat County, Tehran Province.

This area has a mountainous texture and is considered one of Iran›s cold and dry areas. Therefore, one of the challenges was to design through a complex topography and a steep slope, and a stable building suitable for cold weather. One of the positive points of the location of this site is having a quality view of the scenery and also the ski resort, which is one of the most famous tourist attractions in this region.

Site Analysis This Hotel design is an evolution of the hotel typology. The hotel seamlessly rises from the surrounding landscape and gently unfolds onto the site. The community and building sphere become instantly engaged by interweaving the building with the topography. The terrain fluidly becomes the roof, inviting guests to the scene of Skis towards the slopes of the Shemshak.

This boutique hotel consists of two independent parts related to each other. The first part, the main building, contains several rooms for guests and other comforts, services, and administrative spaces. The second part is related to the cabins located throughout the site.

Efforts have been made to separate public spaces from offices, services, and dormitories.

7 Sloped roofs

Ensure it won›t create puddles that may result in leakage and collapse of the roof.

8 Facade design (materials and windowing) Small, few, and multi-part windows are not placed in the direction of cold winds Bigger southern windows with low thermal transmittances are used 6 Lower ceilings Avoid designing rooms with very high ceilings, as heat tends to go up, and it will end up being wasted where none can feel it.

Hospitality Hospital 2023 AIA/ AAH Steris Student Design Charrette Prof: Dr Zhipeng Lu, Dr Roxana Jafari firouzabadi Partners: Muhammed Shihas, Angela Consuelo, Zhelin Liu Just south of the Mississippi River, the West Jefferson Medical Center is located in the heart of New Orleans’ West Bank region. The medical center has been established since 1956 and has made its place as a vital point of health and wellbeing to this community. The project prrompt tasks the team of designers to develop the back side of the existing medical center, consisting of both inpatient and outpatient rooms. The proposed space is a hospital tower consisting of the following functions: ICU, Med Surgical, Mother/Baby, and Pediatric services, in addition to the general lobby and public spaces. The hospital should facilitate typical hospital functions at the best possible efficiency and address any number of issues that the hospital and/ or community at large currently face.

Problems

The site boasts a highly diverse population, encompassing various cultures, backgrounds, and languages, with no majority prevailing. The key takeaway is that this hospital will serve a diverse population, and this can cause conflicts and stress when many people feel that they are misunderstood or under-served.

People in this community are lacking a more accessible and engaging cargiver-patient relationship. Wayfinding and other factors cause stress.

Climate

Community engagement is lacking and results in a disjointed community that finds difficulty to heal as a whole.

The New Orleans climate is humid and tropical that receives a lot of rainfall, particularly in April and September. we expect the site to experience ample daylight hours, informing that shading design will be crucial for thermal and visual comfort.

People lack a sense of control and autonomy over their space and how they may use it, especially as patient.

This is addressed at the community/urban scale by forming a “green corridor,” a proposal to link recreational green spaces through walkways that users will feel encouraged to take.

Accomodation Residential Complex 2021 Architecture design Studio 05 Prof: Amir Bahramei Panah

Final score: 18

The site of this building is located in a residential zone in a western neighborhood of Tehran, where educational and office buildings can be seen around it.

One of the goals and challenges of this project is to create an environment that meets the maximum needs of its residents. From cinema, swimming pool and gym to playground and walking path and even kindergarten for children. Other challenges are creating residential units with a variety of plans and sizes as well as creating comfort for the residents of the complex. Comfort is one of the critical and influential issues in the design process of this apartment. Because it dramatically impacts choosing the type of building and its location on the site and placement of spaces. In the next stage, according to the observations made from the surrounding buildings and nearby neighborhoods, most houses were designed for families of 4 and above, so an effort was made to compensate for the neighborhood›s shortcomings in size and facilities.

Concept In this design, an effort has been made to occupy less space on the site and land and to distribute residential spaces and amenities on different levels and floors. Therefore, the conference hall and swimming pool are placed on the first two floors, and the rooftops were created on four floors so that it would be possible to use them and gather together.

For most units to have optimal lighting and air quality, the main volume was converted into a shell and a central core. The shell includes residential units, and the core includes elevators and stairs. The shell is cut at three heights to create lighting and plans.

Educational Theater Scool 2020

Architectural Design Studio 3

Prof: Elham Parvizei

Partner: Dena Homayounfar This project is in a very strategic location near the Tehran City Theater, considered the main output of Iran›s artistic theater. The complex was designed by architect Ali Sardar Afkhami in the 1960s and is a modern circular building in traditional Iranian architecture located in the heart of the city. The main goal of this project was to be inspired by the nearby historical and vital building while not overpowering it, so we decided to use circular openings in the plans to give the sense that the school plan is a reverse design of the city theater.

The primary classrooms were extruded, and practice rooms were around the central opening to create pleasant spaces and insist on the project›s purpose.

Developing form and spaces

Growth of the form Since this site is located next to one of the critical places in the city of Tehran, one of the challenges of this project was to design a volume that would not conflict with the city›s theater but would also be harmonious and complementary in some ways.

Another challenge of this project was to examine different types of amphitheater and their rules and details in the design.

By observing the dimensions of the amphitheater and various public spaces, it is tried to reach the final goal by reducing parts of the main volume.

Conceptual Amusement Park 2019 Architectural Design Studio 2 Prof: Kourosh Hajizadeh

Final score: 18

This project is an attempt to practice composition through a conceptual design. In this regard, waste materials were used to study to achieve a proper composition. Finally, proper use was considered for that the final composition. The use of this project is an Amusement park.

Amusement parks were different from what they are now, they just had a carousel and a small lake where people could enjoy with pedal boats, but they were not as advanced as now. Now amusement parks have progressed to such an extent that they have become a recreational attraction in some countries. According to the technology, this plan will be for the future to add a new environment and experience to the amusement parks. They can be referred to as air pressure tunnels used to move people and clients and are an exciting alternative to elevators.

Also, halls for music festivals located in the center of the building and suspended restaurants on the top floor are essential features of this design.

Role: Phase 2 Design

Winner of Nexa group competition The central concept of this building in terms of form was that on the first five floors, it is usually raised like the side buildings, but from the 5th floor onwards, it is opened as it is clear from the project›s name. Moreover, it has different shapes and spaces. Creates that, while attracting attention, is similar. In addition, large terraces were created on the fifth floor with a broad view of the city. My cooperation in this project was in phase 2 of design, which included the design of executive details. More precisely, I tagged the floors› plans in terms of the kinds of finishings and walls. In the next step, finishing tables were prepared, and I drew the finishing plans for all the project walls.

Residential Architecture Villa 2022 Lead Architect: Mohsen Tajedin

Challenge Studio

Role: Intern Graphic Designer

This project was built in one of the northern cities of Iran. Considering the texture and architecture of old houses, which often have gabled roofs to protect against rain, in the design of this project, we tried to make it similar to the surrounding buildings to preserve the old texture of this area.

My task in this project as an intern architect was to do graphic works, including creating a plan and a graphic site plan and helping colleagues in this field so that after the design and construction stages of the project, we could participate in architectural competitions in the country. Softwares used in this process are Rhino, Illustrator, and photoshop.

Concept Charlie Chaplin’s films conveyed silent suffering and heartfelt empathy, symbolizing the voiceless. He was a meticulous director, famous for his unwavering pursuit of perfection and creative experimentation. He rejected luxury in favor of a modest existence, leaving behind an eternal legacy.

This ethos inspired the concept of “cellular architecture.” It simplified living spaces based on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, challenging traditional residential design. By addressing human needs more comprehensively, it aimed to revolutionize the way we approach housing. This approach questioned why certain rooms are placed together and how they relate to our daily lives, prompting a rethinking of residential design processes.

In essence, Chaplin’s influence extended beyond the silver screen, shaping a new architectural philosophy that seeks to cater to individual needs and enhance the quality of living spaces.
