Text description provided by architect.
New business incubator and office building; “Turbosealtech”, designed by New Wave architecture.
The project is located in Pardis Technology Park, in the suburb of Tehran, which aims to provide a platform for people to research and innovate.
Pardis Technology Park is made up of developments by architects from Iran, and this project continues this pattern of expressing the vision of Iranian architects through its design team.
The design approach focused on an interaction between technology, site, function, and landscape.
With considerations toward continuity of site views, heat control, and function of the building, the form was generated.
The volume of the building is drawn out of the ground, creating a visually beautiful skyline and harmony with the environment.
The exteriorof the building is wrapped in a glass envelope, allowing in natural light and the aluminum profiles on the outer layer, control the internal heat gain.
The exposed structure used for the interior is taken from the form of the building which represents the characteristic structure of industrial buildings.
The glass pyramid-shaped building is divided into five horizontal levels that are well connected vertically by a transparent lift. The interior spaces are designed in a way to enhance the interaction between users.
Offices are located on upper levels and an open plan workhouse is designed in a transparent enclosure on the lower levels which gives visitors a chance to observe the company’s production.
The entrance is located in the triangle corner of the building, motivates users to enter the building. The cut-outroof creates a terrace that brings in natural light and air and forms a shared outdoor space for both visitors and employees to have access to fresh air, interact and accomplish their work.
The inclined roof is voided throughout to create a green corridor from ground to roof to create a dynamic space, reduce building temperature and energy consumption.
A water tank is also embedded next to the building to collect rainwater which will be used for irrigation purposes and non-potable uses.
