About Chahar Gah Villa

Ang Chahar Gah sa Iran nahimutang sa usa ka teritoryo sa kasadpang baybayon sa Caspian sea, sa lungsod nga gitawag ug Anzali. Usa kini ka puy-anan nga naningkamot nga dad-on ngadto sa sulod ang palibot nga kalikopan sa maayong paagi ug makigkomunikar sa tin-aw kaayo. Kining bilding misulay sa pagsulbad sa biswal nga mga utlanan tali sa sulod ug gawas ug makigkomunikar sa nagkausab nga mga panahon ug mopahiangay niini, ug mogamit sa natural nga proseso sa sirkulasyon sa hangin alang sa bentilasyon. Sa samang higayon, ang mga lumulupyo niini makasinati ug bag-ong kasinatian sa transparency ug gawasnon nga plano nga adunay pribasiya ug komportable nga mga lugar sa samang higayon alang sa mas maayong pagbati sa pagbag-o sa mga panahon.

Unique Properties: A building designed to adapt to climatic conditions and exchange energy. Creates an interactive dialogue from residential veils and environment: seasons and what nature watches over time, and there is no mask between inside and outside, and despite the transparency, it answers the problem of privacy. In addition to the outdoor space and nature around the building, the user also can feel that inside. And while solving energy concerns, discovery and intuition add to the quality of the space.
Dimensions & Packaging: Field area 2060 square meters (27 meters of length, 76 meters of Width), total built area 650 square meters, the building maximum Height 14 meters.

Production Technology: The building expands from east to west due to the climatic conditions of the region, and the elongated form and chimney of the outer shell are due to better air circulation. This twisting of the roof also prevents air twists. The design of the building is transparent and layered. Sloping outer covering that covers the interior space and interior spaces that are suspended in separate boxes around the hallway and living space. Efforts have been made to create empty spaces at the common border between inside and outside the building; intermediate space to create visual boundaries, the play of light and shadow in the interior.
Design Challenge: Designing a building with contemporary architecture while responding to traditional and climate issues and energy sustainability and at the same time making the most of the surrounding landscape has been one of the most important challenges of the work. Having simultaneous response for fresh air and optimizing energy consumption, transparency and privacy, creating spaces for social interactions and personal space, interacting with nature with a biophilic approach, and shaping the form according to the prevailing winds of the mountains and the Caspian Sea The most important challenges that answered in this design.
Research: The main studies on the climate and indigenous architecture of the region have been done in a library and field, and along with it, the ways that have the best results in terms of sustainability and optimization of energy consumption have been studied. The final result was the sum of studies with statistical data and output graphs of energy software. This region has a temperate climate and is influenced by the Caspian Sea and the Alborz Mountains and has a lot of rainfall. As a result, natural ventilation and rain control are one of the most important issues in this climate.
Inspiration: The traditional architecture of the region is extroverted; Nature embraces architecture and due to the beautiful scenery around and the beach in front of the site, the main idea of the building was formed with suspended spaces with maximum view and transparency; Suspended spaces can help maximize the view and excitement of the space. The outer shell is inspired by the traditional roofs of the area, which, like them, are built on the main spaces. with its wide openings, we can watch nature.
Project Duration: The building was designed in March 2019 in Tehran/Iran and the construction works are starting in February 2021 in Anzali/Gilan/Iran.
Operation Flow: A building that tries to frame the surroundings with large insulated windows in a neat way and its inhabitants communicate well with nature, and this improves light and heat control, and a large amount of ventilation is controlled and performed naturally.
The arrangement of cubic volumes inside the outer volume so that they differ in height creates diversity in the space organization;
At the same time, these boxes preserve the privacy and independence of its inhabitants, and it is possible to be inside or on them, and by placing the space of family activities and services in the open middle space, it focuses on human sociality.
