According
to the program, the building consists of two main parts:
the academies and the complex of conference buildings
in addition to a complementary part. The overall area
of the project is about 5500 square meters.
The complex of academies includes the academies of Persian
language and literature, the academy of science and the
academy of medicine and also a library that serves the
academies.
The most important features taken in to account for the
design of this project are as fallows:
a. Condensing the building mass in order to free the land
as much as possible
b. Innovative deployment of principals and patterns of
Iranian historic architecture
c. Unity and coherency in expression
d. Respect for the ground
e. Compliance with historical angel and Damavand
The comprising elements of the project are: the Entrance
space, the Platform (soffe), central courtyard, the dome
over the conference complex, the wall of the academies
building and a part of the natural topography that deliberately
protrudes from the platform. The combination of natural
and man-made elements adds to the spatial appeal of the
complex.
Among the 18 participants of the competition held for
designing this project, this proposal won the first prize.
