A Residential Development

Client: Roads and Urban Planning Ministry

Site area: 2.4 Hectares

Built area: 12,000

Design start date: 2025

Location: Bumusa Island

This low-budget housing project consists of 126 units for government staff, situated on a 2.4-hectare site on a small island in southern Iran. The surrounding area is sparsely developed and lacks significant activity.

The design process began with an analysis of traditional urban and rural spaces typical of southern Iranian port cities. Key characteristics of these historical settlements was the bases for the final design concept.

The layout combines geometric and organic forms, with a strong emphasis on open spaces, pedestrian pathways, and small sub-squares to encourage social interaction and community engagement.

Designed as a pedestrian-friendly development, a major part of the project is free of vehicular traffic. A network of pedestrian routes connects all areas of the site and converges at a central square, reinforcing both accessibility and a sense of unity.

Structure and Master Plan for a recreational and tourist center

Client: Pezhvak

Building area: 7,650  Sq.M.

Design start date: 2020-2021

Cultural and Commercial Complex – Nishapur

This project comprises the design and development of a cultural and commercial complex, featuring the Bazaar of Precious and Semi-Precious Stones of Nishapur. Strategically located on one of the city's principal streets and in close proximity to the historic Grand Mosque of Nishapur, the complex is intended to serve visitors at national level.

The total built-up area of the project amounts to approximately 7,650 square meters. The proposal also includes a two-level underground parking facility to support the commercial and visitor needs of the site. This development is considered the largest complex of semi-precious stone retail units in Iran. The complex includes a cultural center, jewelry design classes, and repair workshops and small office units. Revitalizing existing passages in the vicinity of the project, which form the main framework of the surrounding fabric, was the first step in developing the spatial pattern for the project.

Ofogh Arghavan Complex

National competition, winning master plan proposal

Client: Ofogh Energy

Desig date: 2014

Built area: 1,100,000 Sq. M

Location: Mashhad

This nationally first prize awarded master plan was developed for a strategically located site adjacent to a major roadway. The site’s defining natural feature, its partial coverage of mature, existing trees, inspired the spatial layout and was carefully preserved as a central element of the design concept.

The proposal is organized around two main squares, with the rest of the buildings shaped in response to the distribution of the existing tree cover. This approach creates a blend of natural and urban form, enhancing environmental quality and spatial identity.

The master plan encompasses a total of 1.1 million square meters of mixed-use development, including, a luxury hotel, an indoor leisure centre, shopping malls, and a few other activities.

As with all our projects, the design reflects a strong commitment to respecting the existing environment, which played a key role in shaping the spatial organization of the new development.

Neighbourhood Centres in New Town of Baharestan, Isfahan

Client: Baharestan New Town Management

Design Start Date: 2009 (1388)

Location: Baharestan New Town, Near Isfahan

This project involves the design of eight neighborhood centres in Baharestan New Town.

The study and design process has been structured and implemented at two levels:

At the first level, overarching guidelines were developed to apply to all neighborhood centres. These define each Centre’s role within the larger urban framework and their interconnectivity across the town.

At the second level, detailed studies and individual designs were carried out for each of the eight neighborhoods, tailored to their specific contexts.

The design approach draws inspiration from traditional neighbourhoods in the historical city of Isfahan, particularly the architectural elements and the interplay between open and enclosed spaces.
