Food Hall, Kish island ◼ “I haven't thought about the sea, but the sea has thought about my thoughts” (A poem by Yadollah Royayi)   ◼ Somewhere near, somewhere far, the waves of the sea give birth to another wave that the sea breeze is unaware of. The coastal line and the project's proximity to the sea made it possible to use the available energy of the site to shape the initial form and volume inspired by the waves in the design of the Simorgh Beach Food Hall project in Kish. The project aimed to create a dynamic and stable structure that recreated the shape and movement of the waves. The initial impression of the project is reminiscent of a floating and flexible configuration according to the wave patterns. This project seeks to explore the potential of biomimicry as a design strategy that enhances architectural functionality, flexibility, and aesthetics. This structure's design also conveys the sea's temporal and spatial changes, like tides. The goal of the project is to create a rich and expressive architecture that reflects the beauty and mystery of the sea, as it is reborn from waves of the sea, somewhere near, somewhere far, in the form of waves.   ◼ According to the functional needs of the project and to predict diverse spaces, in addition to considering a significant part of the project as a food and beverage zone in two parts ( public and VIP spaces) some other parts such as entertainment spaces, children's food court, movie zone, and other interactive spaces were necessary to divide the total area into separate and related parts that put them together in a linear organization with a specific rhythm (inspired by local architecture in Kish). Next, we investigated the movement of sea waves and how it affects the project form. As a result, the facade was designed with curves inspired by sea waves. Finally, the effect of these lines on details such as openings, landscape, interior spaces, and lighting was considered.     Location: Kish Island/Simorgh Beach Timing: Completed Employer: Amin Tolo Art director: Mohsen Saraaji Concept and design team: Sara Salamat, Alireza Bakhshi Post production: Javad Saberi Website and media Support: Zahra Mohammadpour, Faezeh Abadi Art review: Metanat Mohebi #ondoffice #cross_border_experiences #architecturedesign ondoffice.com
