PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Museum

INSPIRATION:
Traditionally, the guiding, formative, motif of Iranian architecture has been its cosmic symbolism by which man is brought into communication and participation with the powers of heaven. This theme, shared by virtually all Asia and persisting even into modern times, not only has given unity and continuity to the architecture of Persia, but has been a primary source of its emotional characters as well.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Islamic and Persian artists developed geometric patterns to a degree of complexity and sophistication previously unknown. These patterns exemplify the Islamic and Persian interest in repetition, symmetry and continuous generation of patterns. The superb assurance of the Islamic designers is demonstrated by their masterful integration of geometry with such optical effects as the balancing of positive and negative areas, interlacing with fluid overlapping and under passing strap work, and a skillful use of color and tone values.
