project is about renovation of a facade in Zanjan located in the North West of Iran,320 kilometers far from Tehran with an area of 36,400 km² has a mostly rural, population of 700,000.
In design process there were not so many chance to change the plan , so in final design we used existing elements in plan and brought them to the elevation to have simple , familiar to the surrounding and strong facade.
As Zanjan located in cold and mountainous zone of Iran that is why stone was the first choice .The stone used on the facade comes from mine around the city,built specific texture on that, close to the translucent part,and the entire producing process is hand work.
Separation of 4 parts made of stone in facade turned out by translucent gaps made of 20 mm glasses put over each other.
