Although Kish Island is currently a developing region, it can be observed as two main zones; one of which is based on former developments of the Island in previous years, and the other is the currently developing parts. The project for an office and hotel complex by Hooman Balazadeh and team is located at the threshold of the developing zone and the former developed zone. This role facilitates it to collaborate with the two zones and also work effectively with future developments. More images and architects’ description after the break.
The transportation system of this project consists of two parallel sets of streets which are connected to each other by another perpendicular set. The site is located by the main structural road that makes it easily accessible and visible from this main road. Additionally, being located on the junction of a linking street and the main road of the city may also carry an important character for the project. There are three iconic points in the master plan of Kish. The project is a multi-functional 23-floor tower, which is indented to play the iconic role of the zone and the city as well. Based on these three reasons this project intends to be an iconic design of the future Kish.
