BINAHAYAT office Project, located in the city of Maku at the end of the northwestern geographical point of Iran, neighbouring Turkey, Azerbaijan, and Armenia, is taken into account as the largest free zone in Iran and the second largest in the world in terms of geographical area.
The following items were considered in the interior design of the project:
• By the establishment of green and open space beside the main work-office space on the ground floor in the eastern front, the possibility of connection with nature and utilization of natural light and ventilation was provided for work and convening informal sessions in the open space with respect to the favourable climatic conditions of the region in summer and the application of an expansive glass wall on this eastern front overlooking this space.
• An open plan with glass partitions was designed in order to apply all spaces from natural light and ventilation.
• In the office department on the ground floor, the spaces are segregated employing transparent glass partitions so that transparency provides the likelihood of higher interaction yet permitting sub-managers to monitor junior employees. Of course, unique curtains are exploited for closing the privacy of the offices of the sub-managers during the meetings.
• A secretary space between the staff and management departments was embedded on the ground floor so that guest’s coming and going (entry and exit) to the staff department is prevented and the privacy of the administrative department is maintained.
• The management room was designed above the parking lot entrance, which is half a floor above the ground floor until a hierarchy of access to the management space in the design and the likelihood of management oversight with a view to all office spaces is possible.
• The meeting room was designed on the second floor that is accessible through the internal staircase of the office, where business and private sessions of the company could be held in that place. Besides, there is a library with books related to work and non-work subjects will be placed over there that employees can benefit them. A dedicated kitchen and bathroom were exploited for separate service to this floor.
On the top floor, a room for rest (relaxation) was embedded that employees and guests of the administrative department could employ if necessary.
Eventually, with the suitable design of this space and respect for the hierarchy, it was tried requirements of the employer to be appropriately met while creating a desirable atmosphere for work.
