Integrating Life, Landscape, and Movement on the Slopes of Jabal al-Derak

Pars 3 is a distinctive residential development nestled within the unique and challenging topography of the Barf-Foroosh lands on the steep slopes of Mount Derak. This project exemplifies a harmonious dialogue between architecture and nature, resulting in a dynamic form that expresses the interconnectedness of living, terrain, and motion.

The design thoughtfully responds to the site’s complex topography through a layered composition of interlocking volumes. This approach creates a fluid, living form that balances stability with dynamic movement. Varied planes, angles, and orientations not only adapt to the natural landscape but also narrate the relationship between people, their homes, and the earth beneath them.

Vegetation is woven into every level of the project, fostering a seamless integration of built form and nature. This biophilic strategy enhances the living environment and establishes Pars 3 as a landmark within the Derak foothills.

Spanning a 3550-square-meter site, Pars 3 offers over 20,000 square meters of built area. Designed to maximize natural light from all directions, the project creates a vibrant play of light, shadow, and spatial depth throughout. The stacked volumes at upper levels evoke a sense of ascent and culminate in a sculptural architectural statement reflective of contemporary residential design.

The material palette emphasizes light tones combined with varied formal elements, generating striking visual contrasts between solid and void surfaces. This layering invites deeper engagement, revealing evolving textures and architectural richness over time.

Comprising five residential units with two- and three-bedroom layouts, Pars 3 prioritizes functional efficiency, privacy, and intelligent spatial planning to meet the demands of living in the area. The project sets a new standard for thoughtful residential design in complex natural settings.

More than just a building, Pars 3 is a holistic architectural expression of the synergy between land, light, greenery, and life.
