The Design

About Two Arches Villa

Zwee Bogen ass eng Villa an enger roueger Ëmgéigend zu Damavand, Iran. Den Design reflektéiert d'Originne vun der iranescher Architektur aus enger moderner Siicht. Traditionell Prinzipien an eng raimlech Hierarchie leede de Grondriss fir Privatsphär an Komfort fir d'Bewunner ze bidden. Inspiréiert vun iranesche Gäert, bild e Waasserlaf déi Haaptachs vum Grondstéck. Eng wäiss Fläch tëscht zwee Bogen trennt déi ëffentlech vun de private Beräicher. Um éischte Stack verbënnt eng Bréck déi Beräicher als Korridor. D'Gebai deckt 200 Quadratmeter of a kombinéiert Bëtong a Metall mat enger Verkleedung aus Zillen.

Arches, Iranian gardens, trees, bricks, waterway
Production Technology
This building is a combination of concrete and metal with brick cladding. The columns and the floor of the building are made of metal structure.
Rounded arches are generally made of compact brick and plaster and mortar. But in this building we decided to use concrete to shape the arches and then we placed that on a top of metal structure and at the final stage we used bricks as a finishing for the exterior and exterior walls.
Design Challenge
The small dimensions of the site was a challenge that leads us toward a minimal and formal volumetric design.
Research
In the projects that have been carried out in the recent years, AAD Architecture Office has tried to create a high quality living space by considering the potential of the site. This Project is located in a summer area and considering the rich and traditional background of the region, we finally reached this spatial quality and volume.
Inspiration
Inspired by Iranian gardens, we positioned a waterway as a main axis of the site. 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.
Project Duration
Location: Damavand, Iran
Design Year: 2020
Operation Flow
Two Arches villa is preparing for implementation so its structure and technology is not completed yet. However, in terms of material, we decided to design this building based on the concrete and metal structure and in order to reflect our initial concept, we
used bricks to cover the walls at the final stage.
