Unveiling a masterful work of contemporary architecture in the heart of Tehran, Iran, the 13Chenar Residential project by Mado Architects revolutionizes urban living spaces. This striking apartment building, initially faced with construction and design challenges, is now a testimony to innovative design solutions.
Adapting the bubble deck system, the architects shifted the structural elements to the slab edges, thereby liberating the interior and granting end-users the freedom to shape their own spaces. The building features a layered design concept with a unique “ring” around each unit for enhanced privacy and a strong connection with nature, all perched on a 1.4m depth cantilever slab. Here, life unfolds within the carefully crafted layers of curtain wall, vault abstraction, windows, and shear walls – a vibrant dance between dynamism and tranquillity.
