"Text description provided by the architects. In the dense urban fabric of Qeytarieh, Tehran, the Shabtab project emerged during a moment in time when the need for in-between spaces, soft thresholds between home and city, became more tangible than ever. Here, the balcony was no longer treated as a mere void puncturing the facade, but as the project's central coreas a continuous, powerful, and integrated object shaping the building's identity."
Shabtab occupies a dense urban context in Qeytarieh, Tehran, responding to a heightened need for in-between spaces and soft thresholds between private life and the city. Balconies are elevated from voids in the facade to the project’s central core, conceived as continuous, powerful, and integrated elements. The design uses these balconies to shape the building’s identity and to mediate interactions between residents and the urban environment. Emphasis on continuity and integration gives the facade a distinct presence while providing transitional, semi-private spaces that reconnect domestic life to the surrounding streetscape.
