Text provided by the architects:
Daei jan project is located at the end of a villa town of the same name in Royan city.
The design of this project has two goals: one is in harmony with the environment and the northern region and the other which has architectural taste, is an attempt to use the arch and arch facilities that the ancient architects of Iran have often paid attention to.
In line with the north climate of the building, it is oriented north and south to enjoy light and ventilation. The direction of the air is from the sea and the openings in the front create a blind and cool the indoor air. The east and west sides are closed as far as possible, and the shade of sunlight on the arches causes temperature differences on both sides, resulting in air movement around the building. The materials used in the roofing are gable and the walls are cemented. These are the same materials that have been used extensively in the region to cope with severe rain.
In addition to the above, this project is an attempt to utilize the structural features of the arches and domes that have been used extensively in the past. It seems that what was possible with the facilities of the materials of the day was done in the design and construction of these kind of structures. Today, with the advent of advanced steel and concrete structures, new possibilities have been opened for new further experimentation, adding new and ethical compositions to the collection of architectural works in the arches and domes carried out in this complex.
Iranian architecture is formed in two forms of arches and domes, and two-shed domes can be considered the culmination of such structures. In Uncle Jon's project, in following of the work done on the structural compositions of these domes, this time, we come up with new combinations of arches, by cutting and rotating the arches in perpendicular directions and placing them together so as to withstand the burden of each arch, we get a new composition of arches which is exquisite in its kind.
In this new model, the top vault load is moved as a point onto the lower vault pollen and is reassigned to the walls. This type of load distribution is not in the composition of the old vault and is only possible with the use of steel beams. In addition, it is visually comprehensible and understandable, so it extends beyond the aesthetic aspects of architecture.
