According to the plans previously made for the client of Lavasan Villa (a villa in Switzerland and several offices in Iran), there was sufficient knowledge about the client’s taste and needs. At the time of designing this villa, since he wasn’t in Iran at the time, the design of the villa was given to another architect. After designing the villa and purchasing the skeletons needed to build the villa, the employer stopped working with the previous architect and referred the work to the current architect. Only the location of the old design was used in the new design and the rest was completely changed. Lavasan villa is designed for a family of three and is based on their lifestyle and needs. One of the most important demands of the clients, which formed the basis of the design of Lavasan villa, was having a modern and minimal design. Depending on the lifestyle of the users, the villa is designed on two floors: three bedrooms and a private living room upstairs; a TV room, a dining room, a guest room, and a kitchen downstairs. Separation of different spaces is done by using different colors and the choice of colors is based on the function of the spaces and the client’s taste. In General, the main colors are used in combination with white.
• Gray is the color of the private living room, which focuses on sitting and pausing. Also a fireplace has been placed in it to make its atmosphere pleasant on cold days of the year.
• In the dining room, where the purpose is to eat with less need to pause for a long time, navy blue color has been used.
• No color was used in the corridors but a light gray color was used for the TV room.
• In the bedrooms, as client requested, for example for their daughter’s bedroom, dusty pink has been used.
In designing the waterfall for the area, a new idea has been taken from the traditional forms of the old fountains. Also, stones in natural and organic form have been used. Rough cement with a light color and black granite plinth are used for the facade, and in the areas where there is a possibility of cement cracking, veins of different colors are used to create division.
The only element that contrasts with the overall minimalist design of the villa is its entrance.
