The Design

About Delbar Khaneh Boutique Hotel

Die Innenraumgestaltung verschmilzt das Alte mit dem Neuen, Elemente treffen auf Funktionalität. Das Interieur nutzt das vorhandene Mauerwerk und die Gewölbedecken, um einen Raum zu schaffen, der offen und zugleich intim wirkt. Die Möblierung wurde nach Komfort und Zweckmäßigkeit ausgewählt, mit einer zurückhaltenden Farbpalette, die den Blick auf die ursprünglichen Merkmale des Gebäudes lenkt. Die Beleuchtung ist strategisch positioniert, um die Texturen und die Form des Raums hervorzuheben, ohne diesen zu überlagern. Dieser Gestaltungsansatz ermöglicht es der Geschichte des Bauwerks, im Vordergrund zu stehen und eine ruhige Kulisse für modernes Wohnen zu bieten.

Design Challenge: The challenge was integrating modern amenities into the historic fabric without disrupting its essence. We meticulously restored traditional elements, ensuring they harmonize with modern interventions. Navigating historical preservation laws, we used local craftsmanship and materials, leading to a design that feels both ancient and alive, reflecting Yazd's social and historical context. Extensive research into traditional Yazdi crafts informed the material palette.
Research: Research involved a comprehensive study of Afsharid architecture, artisan techniques, and material heritage and contemporary traditional art. Collaborative efforts with historians and local artisans ensured cultural integrity, while prototype testing in lighting and textiles ensured modern standards were met. The resultant design is a balanced ecosystem of historical reverence and present-day relevance.
Inspiration: Inspired by the romantic lore of the original house, built for a beloved but left unfinished due to her demise, the hotel design strives to capture the essence of love lost and found. The design is a tribute to timeless affection, with spaces curated to evoke feelings of intimacy and serenity, drawing from the poetic beauty of Yazd's traditional arts and crafts that its artisanal wealth, while also catering to modern expectations of comfort and luxury.
