Abkenar Villa

About the project
The client is a retired couple together with their only young son whose conflicting demands and concerns, due to the gaps between the two generations, divided the physical program into two parts. Our client desired two opposing mindsets — from the parent’s point of view, this is a house for rest and peace of mind, while according to the son, the building is a villa or party house.rst
As a soft paste in the face of the garden’s strength, the house has taken on a concave and defeated shape. The impressive achievement in this discourse seems to be that the surrender of the house in front of the dominant force of the garden has also resolved this challenge in favor of the building.
From the exterior perspective, the concavity is the point of attraction for the audience, while the inside panoramic view centers the spaces around the garden, which its owners consider to be a piece of paradise!
