是否有可能通过尽量减少建筑作为单一物体的形式表现而强调城市的整体性来统一城市风景？将建筑的不同元素统一起来，包括墙壁、窗户、门等，以及减少建筑材料的种类，可以在某种程度上解决所谓的问题。
Is it possible to unify the urban scenery by minimizing the formic expression of buildings as singular objects and emphasizing on the city as a whole? Unitizing different elements of the building including walls, windows, doors, etc., as well as reducing the variety of building materials could somehow address the so called issues.
该项目被设计为Kohan Ceram Brick制造公司的总部。保留现有的混凝土结构，决定设计一个特殊的砖块（由建筑师设计）来代表工厂。现在的问题是，这种著名的建筑材料能否超越其简单的角色，帮助改变人们对复杂建筑的看法，并结合不同的建筑元素，达到一种新的现象？我们怎样才能通过引入弱的形式作为建筑对象来减少城市风景中的视觉干扰？
The project was designed as the headquarters for Kohan Ceram Brick Manufacturing Company. Preserving the existing concrete structure, it was decided to Design a special brick (by architect) to represent the factory. Now the question is, could this well-known building material move beyond its simple role and help changing the perceptions towards a complicated building and to combine different building elements to reach a new phenomenon? How could we reduce the visual disturbance in the urban scenery by introducing weak forms as building objects?
Kohan Ceram建筑的故事开始于一个新的模块生物的形成，它被称为 “Spectacled Brick”。这个小家伙集透明性和坚固性于一身，可以从内部看到城市。 它可以同时作为砌体、饰面和绝缘材料，但仍然想成为更多的东西。Spectacled Brick不仅形成了外立面，而且还从一个表面转化为一个体积，以模块化绿地的形式延伸到建筑中。这些模块取代了普通的墙壁和窗户，定义了建筑中的不同空间。
The story of Kohan Ceram building was started when a new modular creature was formed called the “Spectacled Brick”. This little guy had transparency and solidity in one piece and could see the city from within. It worked as the masonry, the finishing, and the insulation at the same time but still wanted to be more than that. The Spectacled Brick not only formed the exterior façade, but also transformed from a surface into a volume which extended into the building in the form of modular greenspaces. Replacing ordinary walls and windows, these modules defined different spaces in the building.
因此，内墙是由外墙的延伸形成的，遵循的主要设计标准是融合双重品质。以一种神秘的方式将自然光带入空间，Spectacled Brick延迟了人们对建筑的感知。它使建筑在白天和晚上都是内向和外向的。它严格禁止其他材料参与建筑的制作，并始终保持对其几何形状的忠诚。 渗透性是壮观的砖块最喜欢的概念。利用其半透明的性质，它将外部和内部融合在一起，以淡化两者之间的界限。斑纹砖意识到从外部到内部的渗透所带来的通风和光照的好处，并利用这种技术来组织建筑内部的空间。
Therefore, the interior walls were formed by the extension of the exterior walls, following the main design criteria which was to merge dual qualities. Bringing the natural lighting inside spaces in a mysterious way, the Spectacled Brick delayed the perceptions towards the building. It made the building both introverted and extroverted during day and night. It strictly banned other materials to take part in the making of the building and always kept loyal to its geometry. Penetration was the favorite notion for the Spectacled Brick. Making use of its semi-transparent nature, it merged the exterior with the interior to fade the boundary between the two. The spectacled brick was aware of the ventilation and light exposure benefits caused by the penetration of exterior to interior and used this technique to organize spaces inside the building.
光谱砖整合了建筑品质，如内部和外部，内向和外向，立面和空间，透明和坚固，自然和人工照明，创造了一个新的现象，不仅携带了两个组成部分的特征，而且还为系统引入了新的价值。因此，设计挑战通过将这些双重组件合并成独特的元素来解决。它还利用这种同质性来解决项目的程序性要求，包括商业和住宅空间。它试图将砖头展厅的商业方面扩展到外部，最终扩展到城市。因此，该建筑作为建筑尺度上的空间综合体和城市尺度上的商业对象的过渡性角色被形成。
The spectacled brick integrated building qualities such as interior and exterior, introversion and extroversion, façade and space, transparency and solidity, natural and artificial lighting, to create a new phenomenon which not only carries features form both components, but also introduces new values to the system. Therefore, design challenges were resolved by merging these dual components into unique elements. It also used this homogeneity to address the programmatic requirement of the project which included both commercial and residential spaces. It tried to expand the commercial aspect of the brick showroom to the exterior and eventually to the city. Therefore, the transitional role of the building as a complex of spaces in the building scale and a commercial object in the urban scale was formed.
净零操作碳 – 辐射和太阳热增益由被动系统控制，使用可操作的砖砌百叶窗。用户可以通过调整窗帘来控制日光和温度。与第一层有60厘米的间隙，外墙第二层包含了主要的窗户开口，用于自然通风。这个系统大大降低了建筑能源需求。该建筑的照明系统配备了运动传感器。此外，冷却/加热系统由吊扇盘管组成，每个区域都有独立的操作系统，配备了检测人类存在的传感器来打开或关闭。所有这些系统对减少建筑物的能源消耗有很大影响。
Net Zero Operation Carbon – Radiation and solar heat gain is controlled by a passive system, using operable brick louvers. Users can control daylight and temperature by adjusting the shades. With a 60cm gap from the first layer, the second layer of the façade contains the main window openings for natural ventilation. This system significantly reduces building energy demand. The lighting system in this building is equipped with motion sensors. Moreover, the cooling/ heating system consists of ceiling fan coils with separate operational systems in each zone, equipped with sensors detecting the human presence to turn on or off. All of these systems have a great impact on reducing energy consumption in the building.
良好的健康和福祉 – 在建筑的某些部分，外墙已经延伸到内部空间，在空间内形成深空（高达5米），以引入自然光和通风。进入这些空隙的空气被沿空隙长度的花箱中的植被过滤，变得清新而少污染。建筑物总面积中约有70平方米被用于绿化空间。这些绿地通过过滤和湿润德黑兰干燥和污染的气候中的空气，极大地影响了生活的质量。
Good Health and Well-being – In some parts of the building the façade has been extended to the interior spaces, forming deep voids (up to 5m) inside the spaces to bring in natural light and ventilation. The air entering these voids gets filtered by the vegetation in the flower boxes along the void length to become fresh and less polluted. Approximately 70 m2 of total floor area of the building has been dedicated to green spaces. These green spaces significantly affect the quality of life by filtering and moistening the air in the dry and polluted climate of Tehran.
在阳光照射高于正常水平的南面和西面，砖玻璃模块可以捕捉到多余的太阳能量，让优化的光和热进入建筑。统计显示，建筑总面积的67%处于有用日光照度（UDI）范围内。本项目使用的砖是可回收的，对生态系统的影响最小，而且在德黑兰的气候条件下，维护成本较低。一些内部空间用玻璃隔断隔开，以创造视觉上的联系，并让阳光更好地穿透。
On the south and west facades where sunlight exposure is higher than normal, the brick-glass modules capture the excess sun energy and allows an optimized amount of light and heat to enter the building. Statistics show that 67% of the total building area is within the Useful Daylight Illuminance (UDI) range. The brick used in this project is recyclable, has minimum effect on the ecosystem, and is cheaper to maintain in the climatic condition of Tehran. Some of the interior spaces have been separated by glass partitions to create visual connection and to allow better sunlight penetration.
