Shahrzad House is the interior design of a 95-square-meter apartment in Tehran whose original plan was characterized by irregular angles and a number of underused spaces. The design began by reconsidering these conditions. Rather than concealing or eliminating the irregular geometry, a continuous architectural element was introduced between the kitchen and living area, absorbing the fragmented angles while organizing several domestic functions within a single structure.

Beginning at the kitchen wall, this element incorporates the refrigerator and then extends toward the living area, transforming into a bar counter, storage unit, dining table, and series of display shelves. The client’s collection of vintage model cars was also integrated into the structure, allowing an aspect of the family’s personal identity to become part of the shared living space. A single architectural intervention therefore resolves the geometric limitations of the plan while establishing a coherent relationship between the kitchen, dining area, and living room.

Within the private areas, the design similarly focuses on maximizing the use of limited space. In Shahrzad’s bedroom, the area beneath the bed, study zone, and storage components were designed as a single integrated system, while in the parents’ room, the bed and wardrobe were combined to preserve more usable floor area. Shahrzad House demonstrates how fixed architectural elements and custom furniture can operate not as secondary additions, but as primary tools for organizing space.
