Iran is a country in Middle East with a very long history in
art, architecture, medicine, culture, and literature. Unfortunately due to
Islamic Republic ruling the country for last 35 years, the country gained a
very bad reputation among especially western countries. There are Americans who
believe that there is no technology in Iran and people still commute on camels
and live in villages. But the reality has another totally different story to
tell.
Tehran, the capital city of Iran is one of the most
luxurious cities in the world. The rich population of Tehran has an
unimaginable wealth and they spend their money on various luxurious stuff. One of the ways rich people in Tehran are spending
their money is on their houses and villas. Sharifi-ha House, is a clear example
of luxurious lifestyle in Tehran. The design of this building is from
Nextoffice Studio, which is a group of innovative young Iranian designers,
architects, and engineers.
This there year project was completed in 2013 and it is
located in one of the most high-end neighborhoods of Tehran called Daroos.
Three levels of this seven-story building can rotate 90 degrees to adjust with
the weather. Tehran has very hot summers and cold and dry winters. In the
summer the rotation will provide terrace and in winter when outdoor has no use
the terrace area can be added to the interior area of the building. It is a
very fantastic idea and very useful for that weather.
The building exterior is not the only great aspect of this
project but the interior design is very modern and interesting. The building
also has gym and pool in the underground level and the parking is located on
the ground level. The link provided here is the website for the Nextoffice
Studio and it is highly recommended to look for more interesting an innovating
architecture projects.
