Vardavard Metro-Station Complex | Nowzar Hedayati

The project is a grand scale urban development plan focusing on the central role of Vardavard Metro Station. The clients for this project are Tehran 22 Municipality, and Tehran Urban & Suburban Railway Company (metro). The focus of the project was on two main parts. The Urban Analysis of the Area, and the design of the Commercial Complex. The clients hired two consultants who worked together on this joint project, one of which was «Amood Architectural and Urban Planning Consultants», and the other was »Peymayesh-e-Mohit-e-Shahr Consulting Architects» (P.M.Sh.). In the initial phase at Amood Architectural and Urban Planning Consultants, my main focus was on the urban development, planning and the analysis of the sites sorounding the Metro station, the connection between each plot and their functions. The entire area of the project was 532,291.00m2 and it included residential, commercial, office, recreational, educational, healthcare facilities, and light industrial areas. The next phase was conducted at Peymayesh Consulting, which was the architectural and technical design of Vardavard Metro Station Complex. the focus was primarily on the Commercial-Office-Hotel Complex, which was par t of the whole development. The Building included some of 200,000m2 of Commercial areas, 13,000m2 of Hotel areas, and 16,000m2 of office arreas. All of which were designed with their respective number of parking areas in the basement. The project was further comlicated due to a road passing through it in an underpass. I was involved in this project while I was employed by Amood Urban Planners and P.M.Sh. Consulting Architects.
