In the design of this house, two principles were sought after; first, having an optimum view of the Damavand peak and Ab-e-Sard village at the same time, and second, trying to capture the north-south sunlight despite the east-west elongation of the plot of land.
The result is a sculptural form, consisting of three interlocked, angled volumes which descend symbolically towards the Damavand Mountain.
