Day 28

The Noor e Mobin G2 Primary School / FEA Studio

Hello, night owls,
hope you're awake for you and only you. 

Today I was looking for architectural competitions, I came across a pre-school design competition in Ethiopia. Although I didn't decide yet if I want to participate or not, I started small research.

As I was scrolling through Archdaily's project. I was stopped by a school designed in Iran. If you follow architectural news you should be familiar with how many talented architects Iran had offered in the last decade. 

Let me be honest, at first, I admired the project, the pictures did reflect a cozy spirit, but as I was analyzing it I started seeing some lost pieces. 

Well, let's start. 

The project is the second site that was designed in Noor-e Mobin educational complex. One of the missing pieces was this complex. planned to built in a rural area near Bastam city in Iran. No resources talked about this project except a site diagram that divided the land in a functional way. This kind of project could attract a residential flow and if it's not planned rationally, It could cause real problems.  


Back to the school. The architects and the clients believed that education could be fulfilled through an open space system. where functions like classrooms, laboratories, etc..,  are not trapped in a single building but are distributed along the site, weaving together the open and closed spaces to create a small neighborhood. 

mass distributions

I may have missed up scales in the sketch, but another missing piece could be seen here. There are no specific principles, you can't catch a pattern and there is no gradual relation between close and open space. 

I should not neglect that this is a non-profit organization project, you know low budgets

Day 12

Ternion Villas / Studio Toggle Hello, snowman,  hope you're doing fine I'm really not getting ArchDaily's algorithm of choosing projects, like how often they change the featured projects and how they choose it. Well, today I made my own choice.  After analyzing the work market, I figured that most of the jobs are residential projects in Arab bay, therefor I started seeking projects in the field, and I ended up working on designing a villa's facade in Saudi Arabia. After this short story, I think you figured out today's project. It is a villa in Kuwait. I need to get familiar with their design codes, So BEAR with me.  Well, let's get into the project. The project site that is located near the bay's threshold, is made of three villas. the main design criteria are creating introverted climate-controlled spaces. The masses are divided according to the wind, sun, and view. The living spaces like the kitchen and the living room are located on the ground floor arou...

Day 9

Friendship Hospital Satkhira / Kashef Chowdhury/URBANA hello people, First, let give ArchDaily a thanks note for their featured building today. After hopeless days finally, today's building is interested. It was my first time reading about a building in Bangladesh. Finding this beautiful hospital in a rural area has raised a small hope inside me.  Z. note : Today I tried an alternative method in reading the project, I tried to find the principles behind the structure, developing principles that are related to the context of the site and the function of the building could be really critical, but,  you know,  that is the fun part of the design process.  Z. note:  I used a more diagrammatic representation method today. Although I really enjoyed you guys my ghost army and although I started this blog for myself. The need for people's approval is pushing me to promote this blog by opening an Instagram page. Well, let's get into the project. The 8 bedrooms hospital si...

Day 15

La Cite Moderne /  Victor Bourgeois Hello guys,  hope you're not upset about me posting at 3 am. I know you've been waiting :') Today's topic is a little different, recently with a human organization building low-cost houses for refugees in northern Syria. the discussion of how the design of refugees camp should be has been around, especially with the same organization launching a competition for a new camp next year.   I didn't decide to join yet, but there is no harm with small research, Therefore, Today I started searching for a refugee camp, well there are very few ones. So I grow my search circle and came to social houses. hoping I will get to understand the principles of designing camps.  Well after a long introduction, Let's get into the project.  After WWII, the need for quick and affordable houses has emerged, especially with the wave of immigrants moving to the city for work. Today's project considers one of the biggest modern social house project...
