‘pardis technology park’ by olgoo architectural office images © hamed farhangi

conceived by irani olgoo architects, this four-level building is built within the ‘pardis technology park’ manufacturing district in iran. the design concept for the administrative office is taken from a dark box and a transparent kernel for research and development. its division between both sectors is visible through a diagonal cut made in the box. the separation splits the structure into two parts and the center space becomes a greenhouse that contains the bridges between the two buildings and the lobby alongside the entrance. the r&d section

has a translucent façade for an enhances lighting effect and has double skin to make it energy efficient and sustainable, where in the west wing,
the outer layer of facade is contained with 8 cm thick polycarbonate sheets and a 15cm thick inner plaster panel layer. the east wing provides
a sandwich effect similar to west elevation of the edifice.
