This weekend villa sits on top of a valley surrounded by lots of gardens, next to the village of Darreh Morad Beyg. The view is really beautiful, with wide-open spaces looking out over orchards and mountains. The main idea behind the design is to make sure the whole shape of the house lets you see everything around it. Inside, all the main rooms have big windows to enjoy these views.
The garden is created by merging two small gardens with an approximate six-meter height difference, resulting in the villa's roof continuing the upper garden, and its floor continuing the lower garden. The main roof transforms into an open space amid the trees, facing towards the mountains and the surrounding scenery. The entrance from above also integrates into the design, with this entrance leading to a staircase that descends to the lower garden level, organizing the interior spaces of the villa. The main walls are constructed from natural stone sourced from the elevated hill in the garden.
