Alborz University of Medical Sciences is a large-scale educational project that aims to create an innovative and interactive learning environment for the future leaders of medicine. The project is based on the values and criteria of a well-organized school of medicine, covering all the requirements for practical, theoretical, and experimental skills, as well as providing spaces for relaxation and socialization.

The project consists of a six-story building that is divided into two zones: offices and services, and educational area. The two zones are connected by a tarriance space that serves as a temporary stay for students who need a break from their studies or want to enjoy the natural scenery. The tarriance space is transparent and airy, allowing natural light and ventilation to enter the building.

The design of the educational area is focused on creating flexible and adaptable spaces that can accommodate different modes of learning and teaching. The classrooms, laboratories, libraries, and auditoriums are equipped with state-of-the-art technology and furniture that can be easily reconfigured according to the needs of the users. The spaces are also designed to foster collaboration and creativity among students and faculty.

The design of the offices and services zone is focused on creating efficient and comfortable spaces that can support the administrative and operational functions of the university. The offices, meeting rooms, cafeteria are designed to provide optimal working conditions and amenities for the staff and visitors. The spaces are also designed to reflect the identity and culture of the university.

The project also offers a variety of private, semi-private, and public spaces for the students to make it possible for them to use the university’s facilities perfectly. The private spaces include dormitories, study rooms, and lounges that provide privacy and comfort for the students who want to rest or focus on their work. The semi-private spaces include terraces that provide opportunities for social interaction and outdoor activities for the students who want to mingle or relax. The public spaces include atriums, corridors, and lobbies that provide access and circulation for the students who want to move or explore.

The project is supported by a benefactor and charity who share the vision of creating a world-class medical university that can contribute to the advancement of medicine and society. The project is also inspired by the concept of biophilia, creating a biophilic environment that can enhance the well-being, performance, and creativity of the users.

Alborz University of Medical Sciences is a project that demonstrates the potential of architecture to create a positive impact on education and society. The project is not only a functional and aesthetic solution, but also a visionary and inspirational one. It is a project that celebrates the values of excellence, innovation, collaboration, wellness, and biophilia in the field of medicine.
