About the project (provided by the applicant)
This project redefines the traditional role of a bank, transforming it into a cultural and civic landmark that reflects both local heritage and modern needs. Here's a concise summary of the key ideas.
The bank serves as an urban landmark, blending with Semnan’s heritage and urban character. It creates an architectural identity that turns banking into a cultural symbol, open to the public with plazas and verandas.
The bank's design features a porous brick façade and seamless indoor-outdoor flow, symbolizing transparency, trust, and inclusivity. It builds confidence between people and institutions, becoming a space for community
This bank serves as a prototype for evolving global financial institutions. By merging culture, sustainability, and technology, it shifts from a transactional space to a civic hub for belonging.
