Architectural design proposal

The Spadana hotel complex occupies a site of 53,000 square metres in Keshvari, Isfahan. The portfolio describes the design area as approximately 250 square metres over 12 floors.

The design gives particular attention to the landscape around the building, seeking views of the city of Noor to both the north and south.

The site has a level difference of around 8–10 metres. To reduce earthmoving, its slope was used as a principal element in shaping the building. This also allowed green spaces to be integrated into the complex in Isfahan’s dry climate.

The complex is divided into three parts: administrative, commercial and luxury facilities. These are connected with other administrative, commercial and tourism centres in this part of the city. The programme is intended to accommodate tourists and political, cultural and diplomatic visitors, including ambassadors.
