Savan House is envisioned as a spatial journey in the humid forests of northern Iran, where architecture becomes a dialogue between human, nature, and culture. Inspired by the spiral geometry of a snail shell, symbolizing continuity and ascension, the design moves from the openness of the forest, to the calm of a courtyard, and finally to the rooftop horizon. Spatial layering places public areas at the edges and private functions around the courtyard, the climatic and social core. Material honesty and environmental responsiveness create a dwelling where nature is inseparable from daily life.
