Jordan House is the renovation of a 130-square-meter apartment in Tehran for a musician. The home needed to accommodate living, professional work, and receiving guests within the same environment. This overlap became the starting point for reorganizing the plan: the entrance was transformed into a space for pause and waiting, the main living area developed as a combined studio and hall, and the kitchen was positioned between the two, maintaining direct relationships with both domestic and professional activities.

The central design idea emerged from the client’s personal archive—an extensive collection of books, magazines, CDs, and vinyl records that formed an inseparable part of both his profession and way of living. The largest wall of the studio was transformed into an integrated shelving system that accommodates this collection together with the audio system, television, and fireplace. Visible from the entrance, waiting area, and kitchen, this element becomes the visual and spatial focus of the house.

The boundary between personal and professional life is intentionally left ambiguous. Everyday routines, music, work, and the presence of guests coexist within one continuous spatial structure, and the architecture avoids rigid functional separation in favour of flexibility. Jordan House ultimately derives its identity not from a predetermined formal language, but from the life of its resident and the objects, activities, and rituals that carry meaning for him.
