Cedrus Residential also known as the Cedrus Dream Garden Tower is a residential building in Tehran. The contemporary building is located in the wealthy area of Sa'adat Abad and features a facade of staggered and walled balconies. In 2019 the building won first prize at the World Architecture Festival in the "Completed Building Housing category".

Background

[edit]

The building was designed by Tehran-based architect Alireza Taghaboni of Next Office. The architect designed the building to deal with the overcrowding in Tehran.[1] The building is located district 3 in Sa'adat Abad, which is considered a developed and wealthy area or Tehran.[3][4]

Design

[edit]

The design uses layered balconies and open floor plans.[5] The building is made from brick. The design of the balconies was an effort to accommodate the private and public life of the occupants.[1] The building is 14 stories tall: three floors below ground, and eleven above. The third floor has a game room, a pool, a sauna, and a Jacuzzi. The uppermost floor has access to a garden which is 169 square metres (1,820 sq ft).[6]
