Farei 7 Apartments
Fari 7 apartments are designed and built on a very narrow 800 square meters land lot which was oriented through the north-south axis. This feature highly limits the ways the northern units could utilize daylight in their interiors. therefore the main challenge of the design was the formation and placement of the three large apartments that were requested by the program. A study of the surrounding projects has inspired the architects to abandon the idea of clustering the units on the north end of the site, resulting in a courtyard in the project that would facilitate daylight penetration.
On the other hand, a flat spatial organization would again limit the capabilities of the units in terms of view, light, and spatial organization. The design team proposed the development of duplex apartments, each of which could be spread through two stories and offer more possibilities not only for daylight but also how the inner access network of the units would function. This strategy also helped us to divide each unit into distinct private and public areas that are separated by courtyards and level changes. Even the northmost unit, often the least pleasant in this type of project, opens to a private yard that gives it defining qualities of a unique view.
Many of the tactics deployed in the design are inspired by the features of the Iranian traditional conventions of architecture. Through this measure, the project tries to manifest itself as a return to historical routs, while the modern materials, building technics, and spatial features like a bridge gallery hanging over the courtyard, show a careful intention to comfort the habitants.
