Modeling multiple Facade Designs
Azadshahr Building
(2023)
The Azadshahr project encompassed a 300 m2 area for which I assumed full responsibility. I oversaw the design of Phase 1, detailing in Phase 2, and modeling in both architectural and structural disciplines. To adhere to district regulations, the building necessitated a sloped roof with a 21% pitch. To ensure harmony between structure and architecture, collaboration was essential to avoid clashes between beams and other elements.
In compliance with district regulations, the building required a sloped roof with a 21% pitch. To ensure seamless integration of structure and architecture, modeling the project in Revit and collaboration was essential to avoid clashes between beams and other elements in order to avoid conflicts. I led the architectural and structural modeling efforts, meticulously crafting columns that aligned with the architectural layout and sizes specified by the structural engineer. Leveraging Dynamo, a tool coded by Pegah Darvishzad, beams were efficiently modeled, while joists, T beams, and polystyrenes were meticulously designed and seamlessly integrated into the overall project.
The three-story residential building stood out with its unique sloped roof, blending modern design with traditional charm. This building is situated in a district where all buildings were required to have sloped roofs. The building’s distinctive roof added character and elegance, complying with district regulations while showcasing innovation.
I also contributed to the mechanical aspect of this project by modeling it. The mechanical design was handled by a professional mechanical designer using 2D CAD, and I modeled the entire mechanical discipline in Revit. My goal was to gain a deeper understanding of mechanical engineering and to improve architectural designs by learning from the efforts of mechanical engineers. Additionally, I aimed to acquire sufficient knowledge of mechanical design and modeling to achieve my future goal of becoming a BIM manager.
As depicted in the diagrams,
the Revit model includes sewage piping, fire protection and sprinkler systems, rain drainage piping, as well as cold and hot water piping. Additionally, ducts for air distribution have been accurately modeled in the design.

Gorgan Plaza
(2023-2024)
The Gorgan complex in northern Iran is a stunning architectural project covering over 40,000 square meters. Designed by the talented team at Payaypendar, it features a spacious central area surrounded by greenery. The design was selected from 15 competing proposals and includes a striking facade created by Shahrzad Karimi. Mrs. Behravan crafted the design in AutoCAD, while Pegah Darvishzad expertly modeled it in Revit and managed the collaborations among disciplines. The Gorgan complex is a modern architectural masterpiece that showcases the team’s skill and creativity.
The Gorgan’s Complex is a architectural design that seamlessly integrates residential, official, and commercial spaces into a cohesive and dynamic environment. This innovative complex offers a unique blend of living, working, and shopping opportunities, providing unparalleled convenience and efficiency for its users. One of the key advantages of this type of complex is the convenience it offers to residents, employees, and visitors. Residents can live, work, and shop all within the same complex, eliminating the need for long commutes and saving valuable time and energy. Employees benefit from easy access to their workplace, reducing stress and improving work-life balance. Visitors can enjoy a one-stop destination for all their needs, from shopping to dining to entertainment.

Azadi Multipurpose Complex
(2021)
A Symbol of Vitality and Urban Development in Tehran
The Azadi Complex is located in District 9 of Tehran, near Azadi Square, one of the city’s main urban centers. With direct access to the metro station, this project is classified as a Transit-Oriented Development (TOD), significantly enhancing public transportation connectivity.
Detailed coordination between architectural and structural elements was ensured to accommodate suspended ceilings and services such as HVAC and lighting systems. The 3D model was thoroughly reviewed to identify and resolve potential conflicts, ensuring that the design adhered to both functional and aesthetic requirements while maintaining structural integrity and compliance with building codes.
The complete modeling of the Azadi Complex project was executed in a collaborative environment with meticulous attention to detail. Given the steel structure of the building, the beams were carefully modeled to determine the precise ceiling heights and prevent any clashes.
The Azadi neighborhood, as a mixed-use and dynamic area, requires a multifunctional complex to address the diverse needs of its residents and visitors. The key objectives of the project include:
Encouraging investment and sustainable development in the area
Enhancing urban vitality through diverse land use
Adapting to the changing needs of the community and pedestrians
Improving environmental quality and creating efficient spaces
Enhancing public accessibility with direct metro station integration

Sadegh Villa
(2023)
The villa’s design prioritizes blending with its environment. The large windows and glass walls dissolve the boundary between the indoors and outdoors, allowing the beauty of the forest to become part of the living experience. The play of sunlight through the glass roof and the void creates dynamic lighting patterns that change throughout the day, infusing the villa with a sense of life and rhythm.
