The Story
This project focuses on studying the two-dimensional space of the Iranian traditional painting called “Miniature”.
Miniagraphy is an invented term!
Miniagraphy is an invented term representing the analytical drawing method to discover the relation between painting, geometry and the architectural design process. The main idea of the project is to create an architecture which would interact with the site as a medium.
A medium which is identified by half shapes. Half shapes reflect and dissolve both into water and into the sky, creating a perfect atmosphere.
Here, the pool and the striped facade of white and blue color function as the reflecting surfaces.
