Baqiyatallah University Gate

The knowledge of medical science is a knowledge that deals directly with human beings and each one of its various offshoots, study different parts or aspect of human existence. The existing High wall is some kind of a metaphor for the Ignorance and lack of knowledge of man on his inner self. The penetration into this wall of ignorance is done through questioning process and questions, depending on their importance and nature have different effects on Human knowledge of the unknown and each have their own parts and more or less influential roles in breaking down this wall of ignorance (First step).Then the wall is fragmented and the pieces and parts are driven inward (The second and third step). These parts are undergoing structural changes Inviting the curious mind to explore more and more (Step Four).

Since the design theme is a medical university, elements will be needed to distinguish this entrance gate from gates of other universities and to define it for the viewer upon arrival. in this step a Pattern Was used on panels Which was derived from the human body’s capillary network and it gives the sensation that each panel is a section slice of the human anatomy. Therefore, the viewer is confronted with an introduction to medical science upon his arrival (Step Five).

In the final step, we come to believe that God is the cure of all kinds of pain and his Remembrance and name is the source of the healing process. Here the Phrase “یا من اسمه دوا و ذکره شفا” Which is a part of the Komeyl prayer as an element of identity and an expression of religious belief that describes the Remembrance of God as the source of healing and peace, was designed in the form of a node and put on side panels of the gate (Step Six).

the panels are made of exposed concrete and located pattern on them are of 2 cm width and depth which could be considered in the process of making the molds but also by carving them on the surface of the panels after thicker concrete implementation.

The main entrance of a complex is indicative of its nature and character and therefore is of great importance. several factors such as access, the flow of incoming and outgoing traffic, Technical requirements through machinery, the space required for entry and exit control, Green space and above all, visual aesthetics affect the design of a complex entrance. in a gate design, the beauty and the harmony with the quiddity of the complex are very important factors and so they are considered as the most important ones in this project.
