Dasht-e-Chehel Villa in Damavand was designed with the aim of creating a calm and cohesive space in nature. By preserving the site's topography and existing trees on the 1,000-square-meter site, the designer created a villa that harmonizes with the terrain's slope while causing minimal disruption to the natural setting. The use of natural materials such as stone and wood, and the harmony of the building's color and texture with its surroundings, reinforce the sense of integration with nature. With a built area of 350 square meters, the villa embodies a philosophy of building with rather than against the landscape, allowing the natural features of Damavand's terrain to guide architectural decisions. Dasht-e-Chehel won joint Second Place in the Individual Dwellings category at the 21st Memar Award (2021) with 8 points.
