At a spectacular point, Madi Niasarm (an old network of hand-dug water channels in the city of Isfahan guiding the river's water) gets so close to the Zayandehroud River that there is only a space wide enough for one parcel between them, where the "houses between the river and stream” are built.
In the stretch between the Zayandehroud River and Madi Niasarm, the design of the buildings differs from the usual dense and enclosed mass. Instead, it incorporates a design that allows the river breeze to create openings within the mass, creating a sense of permeability. A central courtyard, characterized by its transparency and openness, seamlessly integrates with the Zayandehroud River, establishing a cohesive neighborhood within an apartment complex that harmoniously interacts with the river and stream.
These residences transcend the conventional concept of contiguous, wall-to-wall homes. The houses have open spaces and gaps between them, which fosters a sense of community and shared living. The very geometry and architectural composition defy the standard stratification of floors, and the diversity of the living spaces is a testament to their ability to accommodate and celebrate a myriad of shapes and lifestyles. This interplay between architecture and community stands as a testament to the innovative and thoughtful approach employed in the creation of these homes.
The narrative of entering these residences and transitioning from the exterior to the interior is an enduring tale. Creating an experience that allows people to separate from the urban environment and discover domestic serenity has led to the development of a sophisticated, captivating, and engaging scenario, emblematic of the fundamental concept behind the creation of "houses between the River and stream." Over the years, the inhabitants of this neighborhood fondly reflect on their shared memories, recounting stories of a place nestled within their homes.
