saya vill | TEAM GROUP

Saya Villa, a name derived from the local dialect of its owner’s hometown, meaning ‘shadow,’ draws its inspiration from the interplay of sunlight on its formal structure. Iranian architecture studio Team Group has proposed this architecturally-minded home that marries tradition, culture, and modernity in an harmonious dance of light and shadow.

The design process driving Team Group’s Saya Villa involves a dialogue of contrasting elements. The architects note that from its exterior, the structure aims to suggest a sense of calm and order, with a strong yet calming presence firmly rooted in stone. In contrast, interiors are sculpted with dynamic and fluid spaces. This duality is achieved through careful manipulation of space, employing concepts of filling and emptying, and embracing soft curves that create an inviting interior.

At the core of Saya Villa’s layout are the principles of Iranian behavior and culture, which Team Group Design weaves into the needs of a modern family. It pays homage to the significance of centrality, privacy, and hierarchy, all the while embracing a harmonious blend of form, texture, and color. The design pays respectful homage to its context, serving as a bridge between time-honored traditions and contemporary living.

The process of creating the main form in the project was based on the local and cultural studies of Targh Roud village, the client’s birthplace, as well as the family’s behavior of the owner of the project. A culture of behavior was formed that is very simple, governed and limited in relationships outside the family, and very bold, dynamic and homogenous within the family. The process of forming the project is such that with the external layer of the project, it observes a calm and regular relationship with the audience, and the central core of the project induces intimacy, dynamism and companionship through filing and emptying as well as soft curves.
