Subject of project
The project was defined as the construction of a traditional residence in the historical context of Shiraz, Sang-e-Siah neighborhood with an area of 560 square meters and between five National Registered Buildings from Ilkhani, Zandieh, Qajar and Pahlavi historical periods based on permits and criteria of Cultural Heritage and Tourism Organization.

Historical context of Shiraz
Sang-e-Siah neighborhood, like the whole historical context, has witnessed the migration of its inhabitants for various reasons, including the change of lifestyle, and gradually this uninhabited space has become a main context of cultural and social disorders, as a result of which addicts and criminals are becoming the rulers of one of the most valuable contexts of the city. the only solution for the public sector was to destroy and consolidate the historical context.
In recent years, context rehabilitation projects have been developed based on the demolition and aggregation strategy, which gradually eliminate the proportions of void and mass, the geometric and communication system of passages and the structure of a significant part of historical context by eliminating fine-grained structures and passages, defining large-scale projects and constructing streets.
Over the past decade, private investors who like the historic context have become more interested in renovating and revitalizing traditional homes for a traditional residence and boutique hotels or cafeteria and restaurant by evoking a sense of nostalgia which resulting in little valuable renovation experience.
Meanwhile, the texture of Shiraz, with an area of 360 hectares, has 1700 buildings, of which about 360 buildings are nationally registered. If we assume three times this number as valuable unregistered buildings, a total of 10% of historic buildings are worth restoration and rehabilitation, and a significant number need to be renovated.
A model for modernization with new structures becomes doubly important when we recall the earthquakes that have repeatedly razed the historical fabric of Shiraz to the ground.
