Text description provided by the architects. Bozorgmehr house is a single-family house in three stories built in an infill block of a low dense alley in Mashhad, Iran. In this neighborhood most of the blocks are 250 square meters lots and from years ago one or two story villas were built in 60 percent of these lots. As a result of ascending cost of lands, materials, and the construction over years, these single-family houses have been demoed and replaced with two or three story apartments, which occupied most of their yards with a minimum set back. Meanwhile reaching the maximum rentable area or an attractive façade seemed to be more substantial instead of the architectural approaches that resulted spatial qualities.
