The Atlasi house is built on a 500 sqm plot in Zafar district in northern Tehran. The building is designed for a family consists of a parent and two children, where the near future expansion of each child’s family was a priority. The design goal was to house this extended family in contemporary format apartments where the main challenge was to solve the level of dependency between future residents. We wanted to reflect this level of dependency in volume, size, form and organization of spaces of the house.
To this end, the complex consists of three individual units; the entire first floor was given to the parents and is designed in a flat format with large and luxurious dining and living room aligned with their requirements of age and social status. For brothers, multilevel apartment were designed to reflect their playful and modern moods.
A vertical void between the mass of the building creates a central courtyard. This courtyard enables penetration of natural light deep into houses and provides sky view for the residents. On the other hand placing of various spaces (open and semi-open spaces and private balconies) around the court yard at various levels, demonstrate a dynamic and lively area where members of the family can enjoy their social life and keep neighbors interacted while each house’s privacy is protected. Transparency and fluidity of spaces and overflow of sky and light into the units were achieved by adding semi closed areas and skylights.
The parent’s flat apartment is on the second floor (254 sqm). A duplex unit with an area of 233 square meters on 3rd and 4th floors on northern side belongs to the smaller child and a triplex unit with area of 290 sqm spreading on the southern side is for the older son. Each unit was carefully designed to meet the specific needs of its residents.
Shared facilities include a pool, sauna, gym and a tea room located in the basement floor and parking for 6 cars on the ground floor and a roof garden.
