Subsequently, inspired by native architecture and morphological studies of sloping roof, the walls of the project in the z-dimensional angle are rotated consequently, walls & roof converted to each other, resulting in architecture and structure becoming one. The structure is a sloping concrete shear wall project with The addition of concrete slabs increases the structural diaphragm behavior.Head Architect : Maziar Dolatabadi
