Kalbod Studio

During his years of activity, Mr. Mohammad Rahimizadeh, the founder and principal architect at Kalbod design studio, has designed various projects with a variety of uses and scales. To provide a contemporary alternative to traditional Iranian architecture, we, at Kalbod Design Studio try to respond accurately to challenges of the climatic, economic, political, social, and cultural conditions of each project. In addition to creativity and quality, the Kalbod studio knows the needs and limitations of its projects well and designs beyond nationalities and specialized disciplines, regardless of borders. These projects target atmospheric charisma, emotional urgency, and environmental sustainability already expressed in the design. At Kalbod Design Studio we focus on the emerging new era of architecture, from digitalization to channeling climate change, saving recourses, reducing the use of fossil fuels, biodiversity, and social requirements of post-pandemic societies. We see architecture as an excellent problem-solving tool, from mini dwellings scale to massive skyscrapers addressing the latest trends and needs of the 21st-century way of living. Among the successful local projects of Kalbod Studio, we can mention the Qeytariyeh project, which has become the finalist of the LOOP design awards 2021, and the Esteghlal Hotel and Minus Villa, which has been selected as the finalist in 2A magazine awards 2021.
