Tabriz, Iran
Featured Project Completion Date:
2018 spring
Role in Featured Project:
Concept Design - Visualization - Research Studies - Planning
Featured Project Description:
Past few decades, apartments and skyscrapers have accounted the majority of urban settlement. In spite of dealing with overpopulation’s challenges, these types of high-rise buildings have forgotten the importance of their residents’ quality of life. But how is it possible to gather many residents in a residential complex with a focus on social spaces and providing private and semi-private spaces? What if we could translate the notion of old suburbs to a contemporary settlement?
