Freiburg, Germany
Located in Freiburg, this stunning concrete villa was designed as a part time residence for an Iranian family who spends half the year in Germany. To this end, Iranian architectural patterns were used as a guiding principle in the design, tempered by important local construction considerations such as sloping roofs to accommodate heavy rainfall. The number 4 is important Iranian architecture so the home was envisioned as 4 sectioned spaces that are interconnected by an intermediary corridor. In the western section, Fakhrmddin brick filters light into the interior space; from the gardens on the exterior, the material nods to Iranian architectural landscapes during the Safavid period. The prominent use of arches was carried into the interior design elements, including memorable kitchen chairs.
