Article source: Razan Architects Golestan Residential Building is located in a wide dead end, with a maximum height of 20 meters close to a military area. The quiet atmosphere of the alley, which is due to its proper width and impassability, and also the green mass of the tree in the courtyard, led us to pay special attention to the main pavement of the project, and use this potential for Improve the quality of indoor spaces and make communication with the yard and the city. In this regard, the role of the terraces as the spaces of this communication becomes more remarkable.  Image Courtesy © Razan Architects

The shadings and the filled and empty spaces and stretching the facade material into the interior spaces have improved the quality of living space.

The lobby of the elevators and the middle sections of the larger units also benefit from natural light.

In order to respect the visual memory of the people from the walls of the al-ley, we decided to preserve the walls of the old property and, for the openings, we considered glass walls, so that the inhabitants can experience continuous sight through the walls.
