Two Arches Villa

Best Project of Private Residence

About the project
Two arches villa is located in a calming environment in Damavand, Iran.
The design process of this villa tries to reflect the origins of Iranian architecture from a modern point of view. Inspired by Iranian gardens, we positioned a waterway as a main axis of the site.
All the principles and spatial hierarchy are considered in the plan design of this building to provide privacy and comfort for its inhabitants. As well as that, we used a white plane as a form between two arches to divide public and private spaces. In order to make a connection between these areas in first floor, we used a bridge to work as a corridor.
By positioning all the windows toward the main courtyard and the street, we tried to reflect the concept of extroversion and introversion of Iranian architecture in this building. In terms of material, bricks are used as the finishing of the exterior and interior.
