About Two Arches Villa
Two Arches è una villa situata in un contesto tranquillo a Damavand, in Iran. Il progetto riflette le origini dell'architettura iraniana da un punto di vista contemporaneo. I principi tradizionali e la gerarchia spaziale guidano la pianta per garantire privacy e comfort agli abitanti. Ispirandosi ai giardini persiani, un corso d'acqua costituisce l'asse principale del lotto. Un piano bianco tra due archi separa gli spazi pubblici da quelli privati. Al primo piano, un ponte collega queste aree fungendo da corridoio. L'edificio si estende su 200 metri quadrati e combina calcestruzzo e metallo con un rivestimento in laterizio.

- 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
