About the project (provided by the applicant)
We were given the proposal to design the culture house of Gilan in memory of «Fereydon Pourreza», one of the greats of Gilan folk music. Our model for the design was the typology of traditional houses of Gilan. The houses that rise above the ground have a circle around the pressed spaces inside the space envelope and have a sloping roof.
These features became the basis of our design for the culture house of Gilan city and we decided to apply these three characteristics in our design in a new way. and causes the creation of intermediate spaces. This promenade is constantly moving on the border between the outside and the inside of the project on the lower and upper floors of the project and extends to the roof of the project. Audience visits are converted.
