The footprint of the house, which is a result of plot size limitations and spatial requirements of the clients, takes on the whole allowed ground floor size. As a result, we came across a challenge which we are very much used to, with a solid enclosed shape and limited garden space.

This is a house in the green lands of Kordan, Tehran, Iran. The client wanted and one store house, but in the feeling that it's not just a small house with a shallow look! We tried to make it as mysterious and deep as possible. So we used several forms in the corners and a long pool in the middle of the house.

It is a house based on a square 3x3 grid where the stairs and the circulation in the upperfloor are located in the center. On the ground floor, to avoid corridors, the rooms are connected to achieve as much space and light as possible. Taking advantage of the long views towards the golf course, we located the living room and dining room.
