Mountain House Design | Northern Iran
Design Style: Swiss-Inspired Minimalism
Location: Forested Mountain Region
Client Priorities: Large Fireplace, Open Terrace, Minimalist Interior

This project involved the architectural design of a private residence located in a lush, mountainous, and forested area in northern Iran. The client envisioned a home inspired by Swiss alpine architecture, blended with a modern minimalist aesthetic that emphasizes simplicity, comfort, and harmony with nature.

Key design features include:

• A large open terrace, seamlessly integrated into the layout, offering expansive views of the surrounding forest and enhancing the indoor-outdoor living experience

• A central fireplace designed as a bold and warm focal point in the main living area, aligning with traditional chalet elements

• Use of natural materials such as wood and local stone, both for exterior and interior finishes, contributing to the house’s environmental integration

• A minimalist interior approach with clean lines, neutral tones, and functional spaces that maximize comfort without visual clutter

• Sloped rooflines and structural forms that reflect Swiss-style architecture while accommodating local climate conditions

This project successfully merges modern design principles with timeless mountain architecture, creating a peaceful and refined retreat deeply rooted in its natural setting.
