In his opinion, such workshops are a great opportunity to focus on the issue of habitats in a specific geography and climate and in an abstract state and hopefully Kermanshah workshop, as a second experience of Villa Magazine and AADesign Atelier, will prove to assign more time to investigating the field. Mrs. Dehghan, currently busy with approving final structural drafts of the winning project, evaluated the overall experience of the workshop as successful and announced that in a few weeks and after approving the final civil revisions the design will finally enter the executive stage.
